No matter how great your pc rig is, I:SS still looks impressive - and probably is the most impressive looking game today.

Okay, it's an exaggeration. But imo the GOW collection looks better.
I simply thought Infamous 2 was an average-at-best looking PS3 title. I didn't care though; the gameplay was a more important factor. It just didn't impress me visually.
Do not look at spoiler if you did not finished InFamous second sonHonestly the visuals of Infamous 2 weren't a strong point. They weren't terrible but I wouldn't consider them great. I know it's open world but it does look a lot like a PS2 game.

For the PS3 it was pretty impressive. It was a terrible hardware architecture for open world games. That genre of games had the most difficult time of all the genres with the absolute most corners cut and the greatest difference between 360 and PS3 performance delta.
Naughty Dog took the easy road by not touching this genre with a 10 foot pole and sticking to linear corridor games, yet everyone treats them as some sort of technical power house because their linear games are pretty while Sucker Punch was pulling off the most difficult genre to do on PS3.
I'm saying it now. Sucker Punch is the most technically gifted studio Sony has.
Naughty Dog pulling off yet another more visually impressive super-linear game won't change that opinion.
GTA V ran better on the PS3.Because the 256 mb of video RAM was absolutely brutal for open world games. Ask Rockstar, Bethesda, Volition, and Sucker Punch. The 360 versions of their games (excluding Sucker Punch) shows how weak as shit the PS3 hardware was for open world.
People crown Naughty Dog as king when they really selected the genres best suited to the PS3 hardware.
GTA V ran better on the PS3.
you said "Ask Rockstar".That doesn't disprove the fact that open world games on PS3 took the most work of all the genres.

IDK, looks exactly like Infamous 2. And also exactly like Infamous: Second Son. Maybe even better than Crysis 3 on the most powerful PC in the world.
Oh, by the way, could somebody recommend a good optician?

Man you don't remember PS2's games.
These look a PS2 game to you?
InFamous 2 looked fantastic for an open world PS3 game, GTA5 was the only game that looked better.
I wonder if this game will be like the Gamecube's Rogue Leader: basically a tech showcase that no game could ever touch again during the life of the system.

I thought I2 was actually one of the more impressive games from an open world perspective.
The thing that dragged it down for me were the low res alpha effects but it is very impressive visually, and I'm surprised more people don't think so.
It doesn't even look in the realm of PS2 games.
Second Son is an amazing looking game, I personally don't understand how anyone could downplay it as much as I've been reading in this thread without some type of agenda or eye damage.
Really needs a 30fps lock.
There is zero point letting it fluctuate between 30 and 40.
It was sound technically, but a somewhat uninspired art directions dragged it down. They've corrected that in spades here. This game not only looks amazing in terms of tech and art direction, but it looks somehow different than anything - they've found their own visual language with it basically.I thought I2 was actually one of the more impressive games from an open world perspective.

Can You explain me why should 8800 GTX run past gen games in 1080p and highest settings and AA, when even current gen consoles doesnt?
You know that highest settings on PC are not the settings of past gen consoles.
1080p, highest settings and high AA requires sometimes more than 10x more times GPU power than past gen consoles, so:
Why would a GPU increased its power with generation going forward?
I really dont understand Your logic.
The statement that I2 looks like a PS2 game is so utterly incompetent it doesn't need any sort of validation via response. Let trolls be trolls and ignore the idiocy.It's true what they say, people remember old games in HD lol
Infamous 2 is far far better than any PS2 game

....who was making the point that a 8800 maxes out games? It still performs on-par/better than the 360/PS3 (1280x720+ at low to high settings). It didn't get "worse". Our standards got higher (1080p).If you read my post carefully you'll understand: an 8800 series card did not last an entire gen playing console ports maxed out at 60 fps with all the whizbang visuals on. It got worse and worse as time went on... so when people try to act as if one card is enough for a whole gen, its very misleading and just a silly thing to say. You continually have to upgrade if you want to run console ports maxed out at 60 fps.

His point was that early on when it was out, you could max out current console games at 1080p/60/more effects using 8800, but later on in the following years, you couldn't. I'm not sure if the initial assessment (of ever being able to max out console games at 1080p/60) is true, but it's definitely true that you couldn't max out games later on like that with just 8800, probably not even if you keep effects consistent between the platforms by choosing Medium setting on PC or something like that.....who was making the point that a 8800 maxes out games?

It is definitely the best looking game on any platform. My mind is truly blown by it. I said this in the screens thread but it looks like a moving bullshot.
