Top 5 Best Looking Games on PS3

"Ever since, the current gen consoles were released, there’s always been a never ending debate between the loyal customers of PS3 and Xbox 360, as to which console has the better looking games. While there’s no denying that some of the multiplatform games do look better on Xbox 360 but when it comes to exclusive titles, PS3 easily takes the lead. But we are not here to settle this issue, we just want to share a list of games that we feel absolutely showcase the power of PS3."

Graphics wise, heavy rain was amazing in parts but it wasn't consistent throughout the whole game. Some parts just didn't look that great for whatever reason.

ASTAROTH5400d ago

Men I truly understand what you mean... The same happens in GT5!!. Just saying.

Where is LBP 2 and MLB 11 the SHOW??

LOGICWINS5400d ago

^^It's an opinion. Your not obligated to agree with it.

BlindGuardian5400d ago (Edited 5400d ago )

why is it that when websites make these lists they only include one entry per series?

Killzone 2 has much better graphics than GT5 and probably even Crysis 2, but apparently when KZ3 came out KZ2 ceased to exist for some reason

Nitrowolf25400d ago

" heavy rain was amazing in parts but it wasn't consistent throughout the whole game."
Agreed

I think one of the best parts was with Nathaniel (Christian dude). The graphics on that scene were easily the best in the whole game IMO.

absolutely brilliant lighting and effects.

and then we have some differences like this

Heavy Rain definitely should make the list. The rendering technology behind the character models was well done.

Abash5400d ago

inFamous 2 is one of the best looking games on PS3 IMO. The textures are so crisp and sharp and it had a great art style.

DaTruth5399d ago

There were a lot of low res textures in Infamous 2, especially on random NPC's, but it was an openworld game and they tend to be more demanding!

But it easily bests any console openworld game... and most games openworld or not!

Tachyon_Nova5399d ago

If it wasnt for the insane amounts of aliasing I would agree

WANNAGETHIGH5400d ago

Im not supriesd that 4 out of 5 of the games where exclusives. :-|

Pixel_Enemy5399d ago

I know, there is nothing surprising about that. The exclusives always look better than multiplats.

fluffydelusions5400d ago

God of War III is the best IMO.

NoUseMerc5400d ago

God of War III and Uncharted 2 are still some of the best looking games.

DaTruth5399d ago

When I pop in Uncharted 2, I always think this looks great, but I've become use to it and there are no more surprises. No matter how many times I pop in GOW3 after having not played it for awhile, I am always blown away!

HeavenlySnipes5400d ago

Yeah, UC2 looks great but Kratos alone is the best rendered character EVER.

Miiikeyyy5400d ago

He does look incredible!

omi25p5399d ago

From what we have seen of Battlefield 3 on ps3 i think its going to be the best looking console game.

Pixel_Enemy5399d ago

False. It will look good but Killzone's engine is custom built for the PS3 and PS3 only. The FPS crown will stay with KZ2/3 for quite a while. In my opinion anyway

omi25p5399d ago

I own both killzone 2 and 3 and i didnt like the graphics, Sure they are really detailed but it looks so grey and lifeless

Mrmagnumman3575399d ago (Edited 5399d ago )

i disagreed with you because killzone 3 will remain fps graphics king i think, but dont take the disagrees badly, it just means that we think battlefield 3 looks awesome but killzone 3 looks astonishingly incredible. And the game looks lifeless sometimes but some parts are beautiful, and i like the dark look of killzone

look, this isn't even the best in the game but i like it so here

AKS5399d ago

I would also place God of War III at #1, although I could definitely see how others would choose Uncharted 2 or Killzone 3. For me God of War III combines epic scale, detail, and smooth animation that never ceases to amaze. If there is one game that exceeded my expectations of what the current consoles could do graphically, this would be it.

Uncharted 2, my choice for #2, is the one that seems to achieve incredible visuals most naturally and effortlessly. It's effects are more subtle and blend in seamlessly. The animation may also be the best I've seen this generation (I mean quality and variety, not frame rate).

Killzone 3, my third choice, would be the pick of those really into the in-your-face post processing effects, which do look awesome. I was also very impressed with the lighting and environments. I think KZ3 has a slight disadvantage compared to the other two games in that Helgan is inherently a rather dingy wasteland of a world, especially compared to the beautiful settings found in much of Uncharted 2.

Uncharted 2 is for me the best looking game on consoles and I prefer it over many pc titles because of it art style.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle34d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7734d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde41d ago

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.

Soy41d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7743d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga42d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit42d ago (Edited 42d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199242d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga42d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac42d ago (Edited 42d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman42d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger42d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box43d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion42d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7242d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7542d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit42d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14942d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7742d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
