While it isn't out yet, God of War Ascension looks like it could be a contender.
Best graphics of any game?

I hope to god that the Paper Mario Trilogy is included in that, another timeless beautiful series.
Sprites, hand-drawn graphics and cel-shading beat everything.
Honestly I don't find Sleeping Dog that incredible for a pc...

I'm impressed about GOW 3 & surely ascensions will not to be nothing less, but Jeez how sucks the ps3 with the transparancies effects... even in GOW 3 appears so wrong to me...

Oh, and The Last of Us looks pretty stunning, even though it isn't out yet.

Most games these days have great graphics and honestly I stopped caring about graphics ever since gen started. Most games look good enough to me.
Next major step is to optimize the games for locked frame rates, having a good IQ and killing pop ups. I fucking hate pop ups!! Forgot to mention AI. I still haven't played a single game with decent AI this gen.

I know i know, imgur pics with shitty 1440x900 resolution, but i had to go pick them on some forums where i posted them over a year ago with a PC not as powerful as what i have right now, so sorry if i dont have something better for people who wants to best quality 1080p pictures. I'm sure it would look better with the PC i have now, but i dont have time to play it.

this isn't in-game.... is it?
Oh yes it is. Simply stunning. Stunningly simple.
this isn't in-game.... is it?
It is. Journey is jaw dropping.
I'd say Witcher 2.
Honestly something is wrong with you...
this isn't in-game.... is it?
No, you just walk a lot.
In all seriousness though, it's unbelievably pretty.
Any videos on YouTube of this?

Sony need to give thatgamecompany the budget and the manpower to make a zelda killer
TGC are out of their Sony contract and making an MMO.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Some parts of Metro in DX11 on the PC blow me away. The Witcher 2 looks more consistently great, but Metro has some zomg graphical moments.

Why not in you?
Slightly OT, but... TGC are only really good at building certain experiences and visuals. Their games lack gameplay almost entirely, and with nothing to complement these experiences you find yourself oddly unstimulated. If they want to build a Zelda killer they'd have to find someone there who can actually design a game.
No, seriously they are. I doubt it's a normal MMO if that's what you mean, probably something like Love, but who knows.hehe, nice one
....right?
The producer has left the studio and started a new one though.

Any answer other than Witcher 2 is wrong. The game is magnificient looking.
I dunno, the shots on this page aren't all that impressive.

Why include games that aren't out? Modded games also are technically better but I feel like the originally developed product should be the one counted. We all know how PC makes almost any game look better.
Most of the ones I can think about are on PC.

yea I wasn't impressed by Witcher 2 either. Crysis is till the best looking PC game by far.

Some random thoughts:
Uncharted 3 (beats 2 in 3D, but otherwise Uncharted 2 looks stunning in places, with better AA preserving the textures better)
Rayman: Origins (and Legends, saw the Wii U version in person, looks even better)
Trine 2 (love it on PS3, but in Full HD in 3D on PC, it's the best graphics I have ever seen in my life so far!)
God of War 3 (love the art)
Super Stardust HD Endless Mode (looks great in 3D and non-3D)
I just started playing the Witcher 2, but so far I'm underwhelmed. It's probably great looking for its genre ...
I haven't played it yet, but that GTA mod looks stunning. Just got a new PC, so I may give it a try.
There's lots of other stuff I really love (from the 16bit era fi Gods, Xenon 2) but I'll stick to current gen.

He broke the golden rule and hosted them on imgur, compressed to hell.
Nice to see more Witcher 2 love. Game is fantastic all around.

Yeah... I haven't played yet, but the screenshots and videos did nothing for me, even though the game looks like it is a blast to play.

Chris Kohler on sleeping dogs:
Especially not true on console
He has a point on world design. From the technical bit of it all, he's way wrong. But I also haven't seen much of any openness in Sleeping Dogs yet. Haven't spoiled myself with videos but at least GTA4 did let you traverse in the air and pushed probably as much geometry around as Sleeping Dogs. Although Sleeping Dogs might win out on close range detail and atmosphere, GTA4 actually is a better looking game from an open world perspective or when rendering vast scenery.
That's my take. SD looks better overall but doesn't do what GTA4 is doing. If that makes sense. I haven't played lots of it yet though.
Starcraft 2? Really? It never really Wow'd me. I had no idea its' graphics were held in high regard...
The art of the units and the world, the excellent but still tasteful lighting, the sharpness of the textures, it all adds up to something amazing to look at. If you have maxed settings.
And what's more to say about SMG2? It is a technical masterpiece to be able to pull that off on that hardware.
That's quite a definite indication the game is not the best looking game of all time.
It's purdy in screens, but goddamn the game is a cluttered mess in motion. Also the colours are way too saturated on all layers.
A pity has bombed, really. Doesn't deserved this treatment. Japanese are completely gone this generation, even the gamers taste.
