    Amazing lighting and movement. I'd love to see InfinityWard re-do COD4 in these graphics.

    Pretty, but does this actually makes games more fun? I only bring this up because it sure seems like we're stuck in a loop of turgid sequels and copycats.

    Also, they stole the pip-boy idea from Fallout and oh look! Cover based shooting ... :yawn:

    Excellent point. While I do enjoy visually stunning games, some of my favorite games have not been graphic marvels. However, my lady friend will sit next to me and watch me play BioShock and Tomb Raider (both have great graphics and story), but she won't watch me play many indie games that I enjoy but have shit graphics.

    That was one of the most interesting looking next gen games i saw. As has been said though, graphics aren't everything. I have played the crap out of the Mount and Blade games recently, and they look like ps2 games.

    Seems like the graphical leap between console generations is getting narrower.
