Id say its still RDR2 from last gen....
Which says alot about current gen

Riding on horseback through the snow with a PS4 on an OLED TV was a showcase on how video games should look..
Made me say "wow".
The characters were a bit meh though...

Microsoft Flight Simulator

I think using flight simulator is a bit of a copout because there are no characters, and characters are so hard to get right...

My view is AC games have had the best of both scenery and character combination..
Haven't seen Mirage yet but no one has brought it up at all...

 

[Mr.Phoenix]

Are the people saying flight simulator on drugs? The game is great until you go near the ground.

If we're being honest, the best-looking console game so far, is HFW. For me, anyone saying otherwise probably has not played the game.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Horizon: FW. Also, where is the poll?

 

[Codes 208]

Demon souls is still up there for me. Though Miles Morales + RT was another stunner

Like a i can’t emphasize enough how damn impressed i was with bluepoint’s remake. I would KILL for a bloodborne remake in this engine

 

[Drizzlehell]

I think we had this exact same thread recently.
Either way, all things considered and taking performance into account I still think it's Forbidden West by a mile. Haven't played all major games this gen but so far this is the only one that has really impressed me visually

This isn't even a conversation, Forbidden West by a generational mile. And the reason is dirt simple even to a toddler, because it dumps all the processing into geometric density, complexity, and clutter.

 

[bbw_lover87]

Demon soul, horizon fw, forza horizon 5, ratchet rift apart, dead space remake,

Why? Outside of Starfield (the interiors look good though), that’s a pretty valid list.

Are you really that naïve?

 

[Flabagast]

Even on consoles Cyberpunk tech is insane

 

[SHA]

I don't like great graphics just for view without doing something meaningful, games should feel like games, every place should matter and has it's purpose, games aren't museums.

 

[AGRacing]

It’s the 60fps version of Fortnite with Lumen and Nanite running. Doesn’t always translate in quick videos… but the lighting and RT in that game is amazing especially for 60fps. Game doesn’t get anywhere near the credit it deserves in visuals since that UE5 update.

Cyberpunk belongs in the same special category that Crysis was in for years. It's the rare case where the PC version might as well be an exclusive for how big of a leap it is graphically compared to other versions.

 

[SlimySnake]

Still Demon's Souls for me which OP didn't even mention lol.

GymWolf bookmark this post whenever you are looking for demon souls screenshots that look nothing like the version you played.

 

[SlimySnake]

Starfield.

you have my axe.

Best interiors and lighting in a game bar none.

 

[MoreJRPG]

Any game that runs at 30fps is invalid

Here's a couple more for you two guys to bookmark and talk about in your next-gen graphics thread.

 

[kiphalfton]

All original photo mode, no filters whatsoever. The image quality is insane.

Damn. TLOU Remaster still holds up to this day. Can barely tell it's a PS4 game.

 

[DanielG165]

Throw my hat in for Starfield (interiors and lighting), and Callisto Protocol. The latter is heavily underrated these days, graphically.

 

[King Dazzar]

I think its got excellent detail. But these days for me personally. To say a game has great lighting (I understand what you're trying to convey), it needs superb HDR. And that's where Starfield fell flat. Dead Space Remake's lighting is much better and has sublime HDR to present it. Even if its art style and locales are more limited. I did respect Starfield's detail though.

 

[Ogbert]

HFW.

But the actual game is soul crushingly dull.

 

[Sacred]

Flight Sim hands down, photo realistic nothing really comes close graphics wise.

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

HFW, SM2, or R&C

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Doesn’t come close to games with exteriors

Interior lighting in Starfield is also flat

 

[MAX PAYMENT]

I dont know if it's technically the best. But I think guardians of the galaxy has one of the most aesthically pleasing HDR presentations out there. The use of color is unreal.

 

[Crayon]

Might be horizon. Demons looks awesome, but I never put my finger on why. Ratchet looks incredible but gets overlooked because it's cartoony.

 

[Represent.]

What a stupid post.

Also *sees avatar*

come on.

Horizon still kicks ass in any condition.
I believe BF2042 and RDR2 on PC would look amazing too.

It's called Flightsim, you know flying not on the ground
