My PS4 hard drive is in desperate need of a clean up. Gigs of pics + footage.

Those infamous pictures are amazing. Best looking game on any platform and when you think about it it's not far off a launch game. Sony's in-house development teams are beasts.

At least we don't have pages full of Wii U screenshots...

Would there be a problem if we did?

Me too... I have about 600 Killzone screens + about 300 each from battlefield,Assassins Creed, and Need for speed. Im rapidly adding my infamous screens as well.

I hope these kind of posts won't be a recurring theme every time a big game has been released. Of course people are going to post captures of a new game they're excited about, isn't that the whole point of the thread? Regulating what can be posted sounds counterintuitive to the idea.
EDIT:
While I have far less captures in my folder, I wish deleting them was more convenient. Now you can't preview the images when you're in the delete section.

Not only that, but given this is a next gen screenshot thread and there are barely a handful of games currently available (plus one of the consoles doesn't even have a screenshot function), it's pretty obvious you are going to see a lot of shots of the same game for a while.
Is this blurry?(excuse the DOF in the background)
Yes. Ryse (in screenshots) actually makes my eyes hurt, I think they try to focus on it because it looks blurry and they think it must be too close or something. They ache after a while of looking them.
I'm sure it's less noticeable on a screen from 8 feet away but I find screens very uncomfortable to look at.
The screenshots look great guys (I've been too lazy to take any) but all I have to say is: To those only looking at screenshots and not playing Infamous Second Son, not only are you missing out on an amazing game but actually playing the game and seeing it in motion is even more impressive than these screenshots!

Infamous SS looks like the Samaritan demo at night, it's really impressive.
We do have pages full of wiiu screen shots. How does this make you feel????

Well, and this applies to all consoles, I don't see the point in posting somewhat ugly shots. There are some gorgeous Wii U games with appropriate shots in this thread but some of them really stick out like a sore thumb.
I mean, when you have this...
...compared to this...
It really stands out and paints the system in a negative light.
Well he did say wiiU in general, he didn't dig and mention the worst looking wiiu game....and post one of the worst looking screen shot form that game and try to compare it with a ps4 game.
I quite like seeing the odd ugly-ass shot (the LCU shot you posted stuck out especially). It helps provide some perspective to the great looking stuff.
It is a "Consoles screenshots thread (PS4/Xbone/WiiU)" thread and not specifically a "Great Looking Consoles screenshots only thread (PS4/Xbone/WiiU)" thread.
Also, it's not a "Consoles screenshots thread with lots of variety during times when only a few big name games are coming out (PS4/Xbone/WiiU)" thread either.

Not the best quality, especially since I am zoomed in with R2

I'd consider that a spoiler. I wish people wouldn't post captures of cutscenes.

Love the way the clothes look on the infamous dude. Do they animate when he runs/moves etc?
Also, this is quickly becoming an Infamous OT.

I'm sure the inFamous shots will die down in a week or so.
It's just so perfect for screenshotting and the image quality is superb. It's the one game that has me coming back to this thread regularly at this point.

To be fair, there are only a few really great looking games for next gen systems. I would say Infamous, KZ and Ryse. Before Infamous, KZ was pretty over-represented. Its going to be like this where one or two games dominate, until the autumn, when a raft of good looking games will hit.
Capture card.
Yeah, especially his denim vest. It's very physics-y.

Doubtful at this rate, maybe when some more PS4 games come out.

So I didn't take this shot, but for some reason the detail on Deslin's sneakers and jeans blew me away with how lifelike they look =O
The way the rust looks on the pipe that he's standing on, looks so realistic. NO WAY an artist actually did this right? It must be just photos being scanned straight in to some image render farm right?

I wish there were more X1 screenshots in here. I know it's hard to capture because there's no screenshot feature. Part of me is worried though something like that would just add ridicule to threads like these though. Maybe MS thinks the same way.
There's plenty of nice looking X1 games, though. No worries there.
Furthermore, if you downscale shots to 720p they can look pretty decent image quality wise.

Best yet. I have the game and am still blown away at those pics! My god!
No. People don't ridicule Wii U screenshots in here much so they definitely wouldn't for XB1. The lack of a screenshot feature on the system is a massive oversight IMO. I take screenshots WAY more than I do videos.

I don't usually say this kind of stuff but when I saw this picture quoted, I literally thought it was a real life photo. Like fucking goddamn, just look at this, reduce the size of the picture a bit and it really does look incredibly realistic.

I would too. I hope they add the feature later on. It seems so simple too it makes me wonder why they haven't done it already. Just export to one drive.

Ground Zeroes badly needs it, moreso than any other PS4 game I've seen. GZ is a blurry mess of FXAA, it barely looks 1080p to me.

I have to say, the WiiU's presence in this thread have completely shocked me. I didn't know that it was pushing out visuals that have been shown in the thread. WiiU's doing some good work. So.. theres folks like me that aren't being affected by the 'negative light' of other screens.
Screens are screens, some are good, some are bad. But it looks like the WiiU has some good looking titles, and it aint afraid to show it!

Love this shot. I always really liked the design of the titans. It's like they know they're going to blow up quickly, need a large supply, and build them cheaply.

Well said, there are some great Wii U screens. I also enjoy even the bad ones, because I agree that while some games lack AA, it lets me compare how the stills look, compared to how the game runs. Case in point, LCU, some screens do look bad, but I loved the look of that game in motion. Also W101 is guilty of this but in motion it looks very good.
Also, having Wii U screens, lets the art styles of other more niche games get exposure.
