Looks much nicer than Wind Waker I think.
Best graphics of any game?

Thx for the trolls. Love you too
While you are at it, mind pointing out games that it "looks just like?"

Pretty sure he's talking about a scenario where the wii was as powerfull as the ps3 and 360. And what nintendos games could have looked in such a scenario. Keeping in mind what they were able to do with games like SMG 1&2, and Zelda:SW on the shitty wii hardware.
The WiiU zelda demo might be a good indication of what might have been, had they gone with ps3 and 360 like hardware.

Uncharted 2/3 at 1440p 60fps on a PS3 emulator would be the best looking games you can find today.

Sorry but ENB modded GTA 4 only looked good in screenshots to me. Actually playing the game with the mod never gave me consistent visuals/
Also to those hating on Witcher 2, have you even tried it maxed out on a PC? It looks glorious and is also my current pick for best graphics

Journey.
The rest is conversation.
Most beautiful game known to mankind.

Truth truth truth!
Those screenshots someone posted earlier were glorious, but completely misrepresentative of the game.

I'd have to say Modern Warfare 2. It doesn't have the high resolution assets that other games have, but the overall composition is fantastic, combines dynamic lighting with baked lighting, a killer frame rate which blows away other games in motion, and the best character designs.
Probably not a popular choice here, but I stand by it.

Doesn't look that great imo. Horrible skybox and it somehow feels really claustrophobic. Non existent shading too.
Those skyward sword pics are way more pleasing to the eyes.
I think Black Ops looks better.
I can't say if the skybox is like that because of the emulator or not, but the angles are claustrophobic because I manupulated them. The normal view is pretty far away most of the time.

Eh... I'm replaying Skyward Sword, and the blurry paint filters don't do a good job of hiding how awful the texture work is. The environments look even worse in motion; though, the character animation is nice. Still, it's nothing special when compared to anything this gen.
I still think Wind Waker looks cleaner, but the texture work is pretty bad too, but it doesn't have the same watercolor filter than SS has to make it look muddy and gross.

When you say maxed out are you including ubersambling, because I want to meet the four people who can run it at a consistent framerate.
If I turn it off I can run just about everything else at max (at 1080p) with my GTX 670 and get a pretty high, stable framerate. The game generally looks amazing, but I occasionally get unpleasant draw-in/pop-in, and some of the lighting seems overdone (e.g., the reddish bloom from indoor torches looks kind of awful to me).
I still think the Crysis games (with mods) and Battlefield 3 are more impressive.

Crisis is still king if you ask me.
The fuck?
This came up the other day, but Wind Waker doesn't have the cohesive aesthetic SS does for me. It was suggested that was intentional, like a cartoon with cheap looking characters above a more detailed backdrop, but I think that's the case, because certain things do look more 'cartoony', such as the oceans.
Technologically, WW/TP/SS all look about on par I think, but SS is much nicer.

The Uncharted games, Rayman, RDR, Journey, God of War 3 to name a few.

Yes good Sir. I approve this list.
I don't have any shots of MW2 on-hand, but the CoD games can look nice on PC (see Black Ops below). It's all personal preference, anyway, right?

To each his own. I think WW is a lot more fun to look at, but that's not to say SS doesn't look pretty as well. Really, the thing that bothered me most about SS's graphics was the watercolor filter.

That is bad? I call it seriously dated but not bad.

Black Op's animations break immersion for me, particularly watching the run cycles.
Also, their skin shaders feel off to me. I didn't respond to it well.
But I do appreciate Black Op's visuals esp. the lighting effects in the last level.

the game was fucking awful, nothing great about it...not even the art style. The Darkness 1 actually looked better and probably played better.
I hate mind numbing shooters argh -_-

I wish.
Game graphics don't really "pop" for me unless they're running at a locked, vsynced framerate. So right now it's BF3. That engine is a beast for how good it runs.

I just assume the game looks 20x better in motion. The screens always look terrible to me.
Ah, Journey. One of the few games where I was really blown away by how it looked recently. Dat sand.
As far as Zelda I have to say I think WW looks much nicer. I kinda wish they kept to really blotchy paintlike textures because as it is, it's just a weird middle ground for me.

Ehh... the game is pretty, but having played 5 hours or so of it, the in-game graphics aren't really that amazing.

No ubersampling. That thing is just impossible to run without some serious hardware.
Yeah, BF 3 and Crysis are also obvious candidates but I just got tired of First Person Shooters. Can't wait for Crysis 3 though, seems like they're pushing it to next gen levels again

Crysis with Rygel's texture mod, Natural Mod and Mster Config v.3.01<<< Best looking game I have ever played.

Could people at least say what game their screenshots/gifs are from?

You either have to downsample or inject sharpening. The FXAA blur is there in every single screenshot.
Looks like Ellen Page, so I'm guessing that new game by the creators of heavy rain... Or last of us.

That's Beyond Two Souls for PS3.

Too bad the game seems to be running at sub 20 FPS with screen tearing. It won't get any graphics awards with that sort of performance. BTW I am not trying troll or anything, I have the game pre-ordered.
