Is, God of War 3 remastered. One of the best looking console game from last gen with an update of 1080p and 60fps, better lighting and higher res textures here and there could easily hang and actually looks better than some of the XBone launch titles, beating them not only in resolution and framerate, but also graphics quality. One could only imagine what GOW4 would look like if we do get a sneak peak from Playstation Paris event.

Halo 2 Anniversary, God of War remastered is an upres and framerate increase, nothing more, it's a PS3 game and still looks like one.

Very impressive. I can't think of a single bone game that looks better than that.

"60 frames per second and 1080p resolution aren't game-changers for Kratos' adventure, though they are certainly nice attributes to have; God of War III Remastered is simply another chance to admire a game that we admired five years ago. At a $40 retail price, however, it doesn't make a strong enough argument for buying a game you've already bought, particularly when the lower-resolution pre-rendered cutscenes stand out all the more next to the in-game visuals. Character skins and arenas released as downloadable content make appearances, as does a new photo mode that allows you to capture sumptuous moments and share them with friends, enemies, and mythical beasts, but where remasters are concerned, this one belongs in the "barebones" column."

-KVO

Also about looking better than x1 games, only a true pony could think something so silly. Ryse looks better.

Your opinions are quite often stupid, but this one probably takes the cake.

Assets weren't touched, textures are the same at 1080p. Lighting wasn't touched either except for making bloom more intense.

The game also uses trilinear filtering, which is laughable.

It's the same scam as TLOU remastered

On the face of it, God of War 3 Remastered appears to be nothing more than a straight-up port of the PS3 game, with its enhancements mostly coming from its full HD resolution upgrade and much higher, more consistent frame-rate.

Yep, just as I said, also a $40 rip-off at that.

It already has fantastic lighting, and sharp textures, no need to revamp the whole thing like some other remasters do. The end result really shows how much it can benefit from a 1080p boost, easily can hang with early launch titles from XBone.

I am not a fan of remasters, however I wouldn't say at $40 these are rip-offs... Simply cause for those who missed these games last gen and want to play them, they have the opportunity to do so with improved overall performance / visuals..

Personally I don't buy remasters since being a collector I have most of these games / consoles so can easily replay them if I want to..

Halo 2. Drastic update yet kept the feeling of the original intact.

No contest, Halo 2.

Likely to be outdone upon the release of Gears tho. or perhaps not, 343 has supped up the visuals since taking over Halo and this will be the first we see of The Coalition so it should be interesting.

I'm not really following the Gears of War remaster all that much, but what I've seen I can't tell if I prefer the older look or the updated visuals. Regardless, I don't think it looks all to incredible and barely a chance of outdoing Halo 2 Anniversary. That game is just beautiful throughout.

Yup, it was an afterthought since last gen it was common to pick Gears as a visual showcase on 360 but then it hit me what 343 did with Halo 4, nearly looked next gen compared to the other Halos so yeah, I'll stick with Halo 2 as well. Halo 5 should really be a looker me thinks.

Definitely looking to be that way! I've been watching bits of gameplay here and there, not much, but what they showed at E3 looked beautiful. At the top of my most anticipated and one of the few games I'm purchasing day one at full price!

So which is it gpuking? Have they revamped the lighting or not? It seems you at first said it had better lighting then you changed your tune and conceded it wasn't changed because it was fantastic to begin with. Seems like you're trying really hard to sound educated about graphics but have no idea what you're talking about.

Probably Halo 2.

God of War 3 barely changed from the PS3 version.

@charizard1605

Oh yeah Windwaker HD was pretty nice too. Better than God of War 3 Re-Release

I'd have to say Halo 2. God of War looked amazing on PS3 and the PS4 release highlights the already excellent work. Wind Waker HD is a looker, too. I was really impressed with the visual overhaul.

Halo 2's remaster was pretty good and so is Homeworld's. I haven't played the Wind Waker remake so I can't comment on that. God of War 3 is barely a remaster.

@PAL360: GTA V wasn't a remaster. Just re-released on more powerful hardware with graphics adjusted accordingly.

The OP thought GoW3 was gfx king when it came out. There is no reasoning with him.

God of War's "Remaster" job pales in comparison to what was made with Wind Waker HD

Completely new lighting system

Tweaked shading

100% Completely redrawn textures!!!

Remastered audio files

1080p

This was a game that was actually reworked from an SD build of a 13 year old game...

I think GoW 3 looks better, models and others but H2 on MCC has a much better leap. Not sure what to pick.

@Thunderdrone: Of course it does as there is an entire generation gap between those two games. So although WW is much more improved GoW 3 had much less to improve.

Halo 2 and/or Wind Waker HD.
