Not the best looking game but decent enough. Bit disappointed in the gameplay so far. Or lack of. Nearly up to Chapter 4 and there's been maybe a few minutes of gameplay and a handful of fights :/

Yeah, after looking at SS pic's this game is very blurry! I wish all games could use Second son's AA solution!
Getting a PS4 today, so i'll be getting in on the action!

Probably worth nothing that I haven't actually played SS yet, but own and have played the other two. I can imagine it's incredible-looking in motion.
I recommend the DVE Essentials and/or the Disney WOW calibration disks. Both are easy to use and explain the test patterns well.

It's the upscaling; I find it distracting as well. Game would look ace in 1080p though.
Prob. the last SS shots I'll be uploading (I've taken over 400 screen shots of this game >_< )
About the TV discussion, do you recommend to put RGB on FULL?
Right now it's on automatic on my PS4, does it mean the PS4 detects by itself what's my TV support or is it just another word for LIMITED?
I have to admit that Infamous does not look as good as those pics you are posting on my TV, i guess maybe it's not calibrated or maybe my model is too old (it's LG LCD without 3D or smart TV that we bought in 2010 or so but it does support 1080P), but the image on my TV is a little blurry compared to those screens.

Don't know if I must take your post seriously concerning the buildings, but just in case it is, I totally disagree...
I have both games you mentionned and ISS, I really don't get where you want us to go with...
Some buildings ? Crappy ?! Come on, they all look perfectly realistic, and if you have found crappy buildings it's probably because IRL there are too crappy buildings, so it would be because of their design, but not for their pure assets which are definitely "next gen". Materials are properly rendered for all of them for what I saw, and heavily detailed...
For my part, I think buildings in ISS are the best I've ever seen in my player lifetime, and they are certainly what I prefer the most in term of visuals in SecondSon (after the wet effect meanwhile)...
I prefer full over limited.

It's in Fremont Village. Sucker Punch loves their details. I can't seem to find the story online but some dude while travelling found it partially buried and it's eventually settled in Fremont. Too expensive to move again so it stays.
Also great Second Son shots everyone. They make me crave a PS4.
I agree about the mixed bad thing for Infamous. I'm not well versed in the more technical aspects of this stuff but some of the Infamous shots look uneven to me. I can't put my finger on it...idk. it's like there's a juxtaposition of super detailed stuff, like the characters and their clothes, and the less-detailed things like the cars, trees, buildings, etc. it still looks great to me though
honestly the two most impressive games in this thread for me personally are Ryse and Nintendo Land, surprisingly enough
and Wind Waker 
Automatic on PS4 means limited?
It typically picks the default setting of what's best for your TV/monitor.

If you force FULL and your display doesn't support it, you'll get crushed blacks and over contrasted images. I'll try to post an example in a sec...

Oh god. Can not unsee =(
Cant believe ive taken 100+ shots of this game already and still going
Some crappy old left overs:
If i could smack you in the face over the internet I would. That looks FANTASTIC.
(ok, the aliasing on the cars is annoying)
Yup.

^ like the last two shots
have to correct myself on this one. after playing some more and some closer observation it becomes pretty clear that building reflections are merely cubemaps. that gets pretty obvious when you watch shop signs dislocating under different angles. stuff on the street (mailboxes) and NPCs are reflected correctly though.
^realtime puddle reflection (pedestrians are mirrored when walking by)

Thanks DemonCleaner, it motivates a lot to see people appreciating your work !
This game deserves its surname of "moving bullshot". Really stunning graphics !
Almost one week with it, and I haven't even cleared three blocks. Too busy contemplating scenes and taking screenshots (over 400 already!!). PS4 is definitely a beast !

It's a mix of both, the neon signs use SSR but the building itself uses cubemaps which makes sense considering you can't get the whole building on screen at once which means the area out of screen space won't get reflected and hence would look strange.

You know how to take 720p shots, right? Or I'm guessing you were playing off TV and didn't have the game running on the big screen.
If you're not sure how to take 720p shots there's steps on how to do it in the OP of this thread http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=688391

Just to break up the inFamous shots a little

3D World has a lock 60 fps, so it trumps SS!
I wish Nintendo didn't cheap out on hardware, EAD would annihalate the competition on equal hardware.
What a pathetic argument to use in screenshot thread. Graphically, SM3DW is not even comparable to anything PS4/Xbone can put out.
As for that 2nd wishful thinking, HA!
Don't be ridiculous.
This thread is actually about the graphics, though.

Anyone got Dynasty Warriors 8 on PS4 and fancy taking some shots? I've gotta wait for the EU release next week and wanna see how many dudes they're throwing on screen at once now.

Won't matter soon. The next update is getting rid of HDCP during gameplay.

I'm not sure but what I can tell you is that the latest PS4 update will turn off HDCP protection for games, which shall be up in the upcoming weeks.
Did you look at the gamepad granth? Did you?
Nice shots btw
I've actually always seen this thread as more of trying to take the best shots you can from these games rather than being about the graphics. Sure the graphics do play a part in that, but even the best looking games can look awful through terrible screenshots.
But people are arguing about something something that is totally subjective. There's really no point in that. What looks great some one person looks like ass to another. Arguing about the details is a futile gesture at best because it's those details that make up the scene in the first place. If people like the look of SMG over Second Son, then what would be the point of even arguing about their taste? That's like arguing over whether or not Melville is better than Rice. There's really no future in it.

Just don't worry about it at all and keep posting.
This thread is about taking great screen captures on whatever game you're playing. It's actually not about graphics at all... It's about screenshots. Big difference. So just ignore the bullshit and keep on postin'
