No, the Halo 3 beta does not look as good as Gears of War. It's unlikely the final game will either. The fast paced nature of Halo 3, larger environments, and having more people in a match at once makes Gears of War type graphics seem out of reach. Obviously, the final game will look a little better than what you see now in the beta. One only has to look at the fact that the recently released Halo 2 maps are more detailed than those in the Halo 3 beta for reassurance of that.

A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
All are pretty much the same thoughts.
Agreed! i'm sick of looking at it. People will be happy if its close to Lost Planet graphicly give or take, the fun factor is exspected.
If you look at the armour in the Vidoc and see the more polished Bruts and the pic above the charector graphics will be something between those examples with some Lost Planet detail and textures you find in the enviroments; already seeing it in things like Catwalks and Concret.
""Halo 2 maps are more detailed than those in the Halo 3 beta for reassurance of that.""
I've played the new halo 2 maps, and i'veseen the beta maps and...teh beta maps look better, and more detailed.
exactly what i have been saying for the past few months, when i started playing both GoW and Resistance (R), i noticed exactly the same trend..eventhough (R) does not use texture-streaming; I have said a million time, bigger and more expansive games should NOT be compare to 'confined' GoW. (R) has more happening at the same time! same as Halo3.
each game stands up to its own right.. Game on Halo3...
