Probably Uncharted. Im not saying that it looks better than GeoW technically (both are up there imo) but its overall more visually appealing. I just loved the lush green environments.

EDIT: If we're talking of all time, seeing FFX for the first time made me go 'wow'.

Uncharted, of course. Most impressive visuals I've seen this gen, even moreso than Heavenly Sword and especially Gears of War.

Driver 2 was really really goodAnimal-Mother

Indeed it was... and came out before GTAIII. It is kind of like Doom and Wolfenstein. Most people recognize Doom as the "first" to do the things it did while it was actually Wolfenstein that debuted most of the elements that made Doom so good.

Come to think of it, I'm not sure. It's been a very long time since a game has really impressed me graphically. I think the best I've played would have to go to Assasins Creed.

My benchmark for graphics this generation would be Assassins Creed (PS3/360)

The game that impressed me the most the first time I saw it would have to be Legacy of Kane (PS)

This gen: Ratchet & Clank

All time: Shadow of the Colossus

Worth listing: Okami, Zelda:WW, Dragon Quest VIII, Rogue Galaxy. In my opinion these game will never feel old (visually)

I haven't played Uncharted yet. I did play Gears(360) and UT(PS3). I just don't like the art style very much and thought R&C was much better on the eyes, the game looks great in every possible way.

Currently Mass Effect. Not only great technical graphics, but artistic as well. That said STALKER might take the cake when I upgrade my RAMz.

Looked exactly like that when you played it. Sure, there was some texture pop ins, but, it is an incredible looking game, did you play it on an SDTV or an LCD HDTV?

PS1 era - I thought Crash Bandicoot and Syphon Filter looked awesome, lol. Ah how far graphics have come.

PS2 era - Grand Theft Auto San Andreas took the cake for me. The cities were amazing to look at, still is I think.

Now - Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, then Gears of War, then COD4.

Ah! And I almost forgot - I remember being completely wow'd by Star Fox on the SNES. I remember that game being sooo much fun. I only rented it, so I didnt get to spend alot of time with it, but I rented it for once in my entire life time, and it was the only time I've ever played it in my entire life - and I will never forget how awesome I thought the game looked and played.

either timesplitters future perfect , it still look like an early 360 launch game which is pretty good but the king is goldeney007/perfect dark on the nintendo 64 this game is the most graphically improved game on the n64,

it had shown detail that werent in many n64 games, also the first and in my opinion the only movie tie in aside from other bond games , that was a great game and did very well ,

also on an n64 cart being limited in space didnt stop them from putting alot of stuff into these 2 games , inface i compared it to every single gc xbox ps3 ps2 xbox360 game and found only 3 of these fpses ive played on these newer consoles. has had alot of stuff packed in pretty odd considering the fact these games are on a higher capacity disc then goldeneye pd and timesplitters

This gen console: Uncharted (beautiful)

This gen PC: Crysis (mindblowing, the future of video games imho)

All time: World of Warcraft (the art style, to me, is simply incredible and awe provoking)

in terms of size and detail, Assassins Creed and GTA IV.

Technically - Dead Rising, DMC4, BioShock.

Next big graphics kings - Resident Evil 5, Alan Wake.

since I'm not a PC gamer it will go to Uncharted with Gears Of War alittle bit behind. I remember being impressed by The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion when it first came out though.

Lost Odyssey. It has a flawless mix of artistic and technical graphics. i freakin love it. otherwise, Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones (awesome 2D sprites), GTAIV (beautiful city and detail), and Pong (for old time's sake) will have to do
