Title of the thread is kind of misleading...most graphically stunning game to me is Final Fantasy XII. On the PS2.

Project Snowblind was pretty impressive to me.

The most graphically stunning game over all though has to be Valkyrie Profile 2.  I don't think anything even comes close to it's beauty.

I know this is kind of jumping the gun, since the game I'm mentioning isn't coming out for a couple weeks, but Odin Sphere. As for the games out currently, I'd go with FFXII.

I agree. The Burnout series definately

well for those requirements then yeah, burnout crashes are amazing.

VP2 is georgeous :) To the OP: for your criteria, I'd say you should look at Zone of the Enders 2.

joemomoh

Yes, yes it is. No explosions, crashes etc here, but a damn awesome animated art style. I personally prefer graphics like those in Okami to all this photo-realistic next-gen stuff.

The game itself is awesome too, the only Legend of Zelda clone that I actually enjoy more than Legend of Zelda. Very highly recommended.

I love cel shaded graphics. So for me, Shin Megami Tensei games (Nocturne, DDs1, DDS2) were the best looking. I also liked GoW2 and the artistic Okami. Oh yeah, Ratchet and Clank games too.

Valkyrie Profile 2 and GT4 are the most graphically enhanced games I have ever played on a PS2.  GOW series and MSG series are close but they can't really compare to those two titles.

many will disagree, but i thought shadow of the colossus was pretty impressive.  not so much the environment as a whole, but when it came down to actual Colossi encounters those darn things were very impressive to look at thanks to the impressive scale of the beasts.

it is good to see people give merit to art style rather than technical performance :) In the spirit of this post, I will also add Steambot Chronicles -- I really like the simple cell shaded style and the infinite view distances.

RE4 is pretty impressive, but you own that for the gamecube already don't you joemohmoh.  Well, FFXII is pretty nice.

Artistically... Okami.

 

Technically... GT4, GoW2, VP2.

 

here's another category:  Old PS2 games that look better than nearly every single new PS2 game.

 

For that category:   Jak 3.  Try playing that game on a 62" 1080p HDTV in the dark... GODDAMN!

Cel shaded games look great, in this area DQVIII and Okami are the best. "Normal" graphics are MGS3, FFXII, The Bouncer, Tekken 5 and Gran Turismo 4.

I think Bully have decent graphics, in an open ended world you cant get graphics like BULLY.

god of war,FFXII ..........no.1

shadow of rome and god hand no.2

resident evil 4, def jam, darkwatch no.3

shadow of colussus, wwe raw vs smack down 2006 have A+ category graphics.Â
