The game with the most impressive ghraphics!!

Not crysis because everyone already knows it.

Peggle!

witcher, has some issues with correlation between the skies and the lighting which oblivion excels at but i think it beats oblivion overall. For one the draw distances and details are much better, no pop up's.

I don't play too many so can't give any better examples.

i could also say TF2 for the hell of it as although some people don't like it it is gorgeous in it's own way.

Oblivion is **** impressive shiz! One of the only games that has made me go "woow"

Crysis only looks good sometimes....

here is how i used to run it...

and

and yeah..Bioshock looked ok...

Well if you are going to remove Crysis, I'd probably say Bioshock. With Oblivion you could make it gorgeous with mods, but you would have to go find mods to fix a lot of the textures and such. There is a lot of ugly in that game otherwise.

I'm surprised that nobody has said Call of Duty 4 yet. I personally think it looks a lot better than the other games because of how well everything flows together. The movement of the characters does it for me also, on top of the fact that it's just a great looking game. I think Bioshock's environments look great, but the characters looked really crappy to me. I enjoyed the game, but it bothered me to see characters in a 60 fps environment with death animations that looked like they were at 20 fps.

My mspaint skills amazes you!

Same. **** me if the controls aren't a pain in the ass. I gave up after about an hour of trying to adjust settings and browsing message boards when I still ended up flying into a wall as soon as I tapped a direction. I'm not about to buy one of those retarded gaming steering wheels. That's just a line I'm not willing to cross.

Actually, an eye candy game that's actually fun to play: Assassins' Creed.

One of the best titles of 2007 IMO. It runs great on Vista systems and not only does it look extremely good, it also provides hours and great gameplay.

PS: Lost Planet looks good as well (if you have Vista) but is more power hungry. If you have less than a 8800 series V-Card then don't bother with this one.

LOTRO has the best draw distance imho. The graphics are breath taking and it provides dX10, too.

they have to have bad graphics, when you see a few hundred people on 1 screen, there will be lag if you use high end graphics

also they avoid doing it because they want more than the top 0.0001% of pc's to be able to run it

WOW does so well because it is a popular game and almost anyone could run it compared to most other pc games

how many times do you see blizzard or who ever makes WOW complaining like a cry baby about people pirating their game?

Ah, I forgot all about Assassin's Creed. That game really does look very good, except for a few very small things. The character animations really are some of the best. I would disagree with the "hours of fun" part, though. More like hours of the same thing over and over again!

I vote D.

yetyhunter You're not the same guy that keeps posting the "Q6600 vs. 8400" threads under different names to windup forum regulars - are you??

BTW Mass Effect has some really nice effects!! (Sorry couldn't resist - I got sucked in)...

UT3 had skipped my mind, i actually do think that has better gfx than COD4 or Bioshock.

not sure about Crysis vs UT3 though cause of the different styles it would be hard to do a comparison.

No it's not me. I own an E8400 and I know it beats the quad in games.

Word.

You know. I am always the odd ball here.

I like Mass Effect graphic a lot. In especially, I like the grain texture and the supposed-to-be-defunct shadow because the game plays like it is from a comic book film adaptation. Graphic-wise.

Everyone free to opine right?

I believe the chap was using what is commonly called "street slang"...

X3 does have some lovely graphics though!!

Bob

Shadows and FEAR? Hah. I think Thief: Deadly Shadows did a better job of that... I'd even go as far as to say I liked the graphics better.

Assassin's Creed definitely takes the graphics cake for me. Loved the style.

Purely character models? MMOs can be pretty good. EverQuest II did a great job (if you can tune up the graphics to extreme).

Environment? Definitely have to go with Oblivion there. Character models weren't quite as fantastic as the environment. Compares well with drawing a flat picture and dropping it over a 3D model without any touch-ups in the skin area (excluding hair of course).

Best wishes,

My vote for Mass Effect, Bioshock and Crysis (best graphics I've ever seen).

X3 and FEAR still hold their own too.

Havn't tried TF2 yet.

WHAT! One of the best games ever. The graphics aren't the best, but the game play is why people play it. I'm not saying the graphics are bad, but they aren't the most lifelike/realistic.

assassins creed

im gonna say counter strike source its soo old and it still keeps up with most games crysis does beat it but no one can actually play the damn game so whats the point of it
