MLB the Show 11. Honestly without question the best looking game on consoles. Sports games need to stop being overlooked, they are just as valid as any other genre.

My personal favorite video.

Because a baseball field needs a lot of textures to look good. Also, the models have no facial expression at all.

I agree that Sports games are vastly overlooked when it comes to graphics and gameplay. However, I still believe that NBA 2K11 is the unquestioned graphics king when it comes to sports titles. In fact, Id go so far as to say that NBA 2K11 is the best sports game...PERIOD in years!! The thing i hate when you try to bring sports games up in these conversations is you get these 18-22 year old "bro-dudes" that come up with the ever so clever..."I dont play sports games because I actually go outside and play the real thing"?? Really? You can go out and play tackle football with Ray Lewis...Hoops with Kobe or stand in the batters box against against Sabathia??

Show me a single game with better facial expressions. That aren't prerendered.

@kungfu I've only played NBA 2k11 on PC so it's hard for me to compare it to a console game, but if it looks anythign similar I will agree.

Since when are any of these games in 1080p? And what are these "things" that go on in the background. And nothing about MLB the Show is dead. Look at the video. Full 3D crowd, full benches, full bullpen, dynamic weather effects, thousands of animation. There are very few games that could match up t0 the show.

It's a sports game. I am uninterested. Talk about ground thoroughly tread. I'd rather buyanother Call of Duty game.

I'm sure they are. But I'd be more interested if they made more over the top ones like SEGA Soccer Slam and The Bigs. It's pretty dull when they strictly imitate real life.

LA Noire has the title. I think Animation plays a major role in how good a game looks graphically, IMO. It adds to realism.
