[QUOTE=Brt5470;32749437]I'm assuming best looking means best graphical fidelity, which it doesn't. It's a great game with great visuals, but it's not impressive in the graphics department. I would say Crysis 2 or The Witcher 2 would be the games with the most impressive visuals of 2011.[/QUOTE] wait, I forgot about the witcher 2 the witcher 2 comes in first with DXHR coming in second by virtue of its aesthetic, with enbseries mitigating the weird colour correction and somewhat washed out visuals crysis 2 looks like poop a lot of the time since it's a massive blurfest that hurts my eyes [editline]12th October 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Killer900;32749313]That's debatable.[/QUOTE] yes it is let's debate
BF3? [img]http://i.imgur.com/s2CW0.jpg[/img]
[QUOTE=Generic.Monk;32749638]crysis 2 looks like poop a lot of the time since it's a massive blurfest that hurts my eyes[/QUOTE] You must have shit eyes then, this coming from someone who's colour blind so i need the saturation levels higher than normal to see good colour. I know blur and saturation are different, but if you have high saturation it can be really uneasy on the eyes.

[QUOTE=Generic.Monk;32749638]crysis 2 looks like poop a lot of the time since it's a massive blurfest that hurts my eye[/QUOTE] You can turn off Motion Blur you know, its an option. Honesly I thought Crysis 2 looked great. The Game sucked ass, but the visuals were amazing with the High-Res pack and DX11 patch.

I have never played STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl before but i'm already bricking it, it just has a creepy feel to it, reminds me of Metro 2033, same goes for Metro 2033, reminds me of STALKER.

The games themselves aren't scary, but they have such creepy atmospheres. Especially considering they're made by low budget developers

Also look into mods when you're done, especially ones that make night time as dark as shit.

on my first playthrough i stopped playing SoC for a week or two after getting about 3 minutes into the labs
[QUOTE=Generic.Monk;32749638]yes it is let's debate[/QUOTE]Best art style, yeah. Best graphics, eh, so far yeah, but only with the ENB series. But 2011 still has 2 months left with a lot of other contenders still to come out. (BF3 for example)

[QUOTE=MadPro119;32751691]Did you do Mirrors Edge screenshots the same way. I remember using a mirrors edge screenshot as a wallpaper.[/QUOTE] Yea, I use PTGUI for most stuff since it has so many options.

[QUOTE=Generic.Monk;32751632]wellspring looks honest to god amazing, subway town looks kind of shit compared to it also can I have those in full res, I want to set them as my wallpaper, replacing my tiled ainsley harriott pictures[/QUOTE] Those are the full res. I mean, they are 2560x900 or something. They were something like 3500 originally, but those were too big while uploading so I uploaded these very high quality ones that could be spread easily.
[QUOTE=JerryK;32750409]wtf it's not fair to compare DXHR with ENB to other games' default graphics[/QUOTE] honestly it's my opinion, deal with it sometimes I just fall in love with the way a game looks; I thought call of juarez: bound in blood was the best looking game of 2009 ffs

[QUOTE=ZombieWaffle;32751795]Because of quality over quantity.[/QUOTE] (just realized you were talking about COD2, I'll keep this post here because it remains true though) uh you do realize the amount of work that went into RAGE's art assets right, every square meter had to be done manually the only reason the textures are so low res is because ramping up the resolution would have resulted in the game needing like 6 DVDS (consoles probably had something to do with it but getting ultra-hires textures into the retail versions would be a logistical nightmare)
