This is a first generation PS VITA game. It honestly looks just as good as Drakes Fortune did. Maybe even better. Just wait until devs start maxing out the power on the VITA. Could we be seeing Uncharted 2/Killzone/Crysis2 type of graphics on VITA in a few years?

'Could we be seeing Uncharted 2/Killzone/Crysis2 type of graphics on VITA in a few years?' Quite frankly...no, the specs for the Vita are great but they're not quite PS3 quality. A couple of years aren't going to change the specs.

Maybe, people have to remember that the Vita doesn't need to output 720p, and these games are launch games, give it time and it will match the twins.

Drakes Fortune was a First Generation PS3 game (2007) and it didnt look as good as Golden Abyss on VITA. Look how much they improved in Uncharted 2 in only 2 years of development time. If the same happens for VITA, we will be seeing some awesome graphics on this little handheld.

Oh trust me , it does. Just I find it hard to belie ve that the Vita UC can match UC3. It looks better than UC1 already, but I am skeptical.

Wow that looks very good. I don't think we will see anything at Killzone 2/Uncharted 2/Crysis 2 level though.

Bullshots to go along with bullvideos and bullgifs amirite? Game looks great. It looks just like the screens.

If they are pulling this kind of stuff off now I cant wait to see what they pull out of the system in a few years.

That GIF is sweeeeettt. I like how Golden Abyss has a similar environment to Drakes Fortune... More National Geographic, backpacker type stuff. The new Uncharted's on PS3 have gone for a more Urban-ish setting.

Everything looks good on a tiny high res screen. I wonder if blowing it up to a nice 40' screen would show all it's horrible textures.

That being said, the Vita looks to be an amazing piece of hardware, might even get one ... one day

Don't want to spoil the ending but you are in for a blast. Kinda ripped off from another anime, but still loved it.

The key is the progression in what graphics chips can do. 2005 to 2011 is a long time, and greater effects can be pulled off with far less hardware power. Which technically does mean that 360/PS3 looking visuals are possible on the Vita. For the same reason, many Wii U games may look better than PS3/360 games, even though the hardware *might* be less powerful. So it's not really surprising at all; raw figures tell you nothing about visuals. I've heard a lot of stick given to the 3DS for its 'lack of power', but visually it's very impressive. I'm looking forward to what both handhelds can pull off over the coming years.

iPhone games look excellent ... The iphone is also a phone, not a console.

The PSP is a handheld games console, thus it will excell at gaming, whereas the iPhone just "Also" does it.

I'm not saying UC doesn't look good, 'cause it looks excellent, im saying put it on a larger screen and you WILL see tons of imperfections, and low res textures.

That gif looks good but it's tiny, and yes those pics are bullshots (they released 720p screenshots, no jaggies... Vita does not do 720p and the game will have some jaggies)

Ofc it doesn't have the specs, but you also have to take into account the very low resolution. This not only means its easier to process, but on the smaller screen it's easier to get away with less of some major power sappers. I think that by the end of this handheld gen an hd video of KZ3/UC3/etc. and games on the Vita will look just as good as each other.

Not only resolution, but graphics tech has advanced significantly since the PS3 and 360. The difference that makes is huge. They can pull of better visuals with less power.

people are still doubting how great the game looks? there are videos of it all over the place. the game looks as good as it does in the "bullshot" pics if not better. as for the topic, i think its possible we will see games that look as good as uncharted 2 and killzone 2. of course it wont be as technically advanced but the fact that everything is being rendered to such a smaller screen it doesnt have to be. even if it doesnt the fact that this is even debateable is impressive in itself.

I'm not denying that though I am?

I'm saying that while the graphics may appear to be better then what's available on the PS3/Xbox, that's only because of the tiny screen. Put the same game on a large screen and you'll notice huge differences between the two

Blow up a console game on a theatre screen and you'll notice tons of imperfections. I'm not sure what you're getting at here. UC:Abyss playing on the platform it is designed for looks as good as many PS3/360 games on a reasonably sized HDTV.

How can you be so dim ...

I clearly explained what i was "getting at" Perhaps you should have read it?

Whilst it may look as good as PS3/Xbox titles, that is because it's on a smaller screen. It's not as powerful as a PS3/XBOX

No one's under the illusion that it's as powerful as the PS360. Your point seems redundant.
