Both standards of Next-Gen have turned out to be shooters, and both have become graphical examples of visual power of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. You consider that with these two great games we have already touched the graphical ceiling of this new gen consoles? They will be able to reached a new visual level over the years? , What do you think?

No. RE5 looks better than Gears 2 but not as good as KZ2 IMO and RE 5 is multi-platform. No chance we're close to the end

They both look good. both use different techniques and sacrifices some aspects to make other aspects look good, example, KZ2 sacrifices textures for lighting and they used motion blur to hide the dull textures, but the whole game looks good despite this, well the explosions were meh but oh well.

IMO Kameo, a 2005 game remains a force when comparing visuals. That said, SCC, Alan wake, GOW3 & Uncharted2 and who knows what else are yet to come. :D

I do think the the visual upgrades to the games offered for both 360/PS3 will not be too major from this point forward but still, I can't wait to see a game in say 2011/2012 will offer in both visuals and game play on both these systems. Obviously the PC stuff will start to more & more out pace the consoles but only gamers willing to stay upgraded on PC will get to appreciate the best this gen has to offer.

I dont think RE5 looks as amazing as everyone says to be honest... I still think Gears 2 >>> RE4 graphically.

I think were gonna crown a few graphic kings in the next year and a half or so... with one having a good chance of passing the other after it gets released. Mass Effect 2, Uncharted, GT5, GOW 3, FFX13 and FFXV13

if you think resident evil 5 looks better than gears of war 2 you are blind.

resident evil 5 is like resident evil 4 in high resolution with better models.

the world textures are so flat and last gen it's not even funny.

Textures only doesn't make a game next gen. KZ2 physics>>Gears2 Killzone 2 lighting>>>Gears 2 Killzone animations>>>Gears 2, hell Gears 2 didn't even win best graphics last year on this site but I won't even use that argument here. Gears 2 beats KZ2 and RE5 in 1 category IMO and that's not enough.

wrong killzone2 doesnt use soft body physics like gears of war 2.

gears uses more advanced physics.

You tell me where the option is to disable motion blur and grain filters on my Killzone 2 game and I'll tell you if it looks last gen or not... until then it's still one of the finest looking games of this gen.

i agree it's got a great atmosphere, but most of killzone2's textures were made to look at from a distance, while gears of war 2 look better upclose.

in gears of war you got 2nd person view to get crosshair/shoot ur gun and it makes ur screen zoom in at textures so probley one of main reasons.

Both standards of Next-Gen have turned out to be shooters, and both have become graphical examples of visual power of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. You consider that with these two great games we have already touched the graphical ceiling of this new gen consoles? They will be able to reached a new visual level over the years? , What do you think?

No. RE5 looks better than Gears 2 but not as good as KZ2 IMO and RE 5 is multi-platform. No chance we're close to the end

RE5 along with almost all other multiplats look beter on 360

um besides the the framerate.... thatll be a no

Yes, Killzone 2 graphics are pretty good,but i don't think they are that special, like most people are saying they are. I think Resident Evil 5 graphics are better, i really do. I don't know if it is because of the style of the graphics, but on PS3, Uncharted graphics have more appeal to me than Killzone 2 graphics. Just my opinion.

lol to that... doesn't look the same... The PC is higher rez with AA, which makes it look about 10x better than it is
