Subject: Best video game graphics?

I would assume the game with the absolute best graphics/lighting may not be on a console, simply because of the capabilities of the popular consoles compare to some custom built computers out there.

So, since I don't really play PC games, someone should find the game with the absolute best graphics and link some pictures or videos. I know some console games have amazing graphics and lighting, but I'm curios as to if there's a game out there that will graphically blow my mind.

Go.

That's just not fair.

Why do PC players get all the cool stuff!!!! But in all honesty some Crysis mods have blown my mind. Its nice to think maybe all games will be that good someday.

1. Half-Life 2
2. Mass Effect 3
3. Mass Effect 2
4. Tie between Halo 3 and CoD4
5. Medal of Honor or Spec Ops: The Line

On a console I'd have Splinter Cell Double Agent and Spec Ops The Line are probably some of the best looking ones I've seen.

Because we have better hardware?
Graphics on the PC would always be better, it's a fact.

Skyrim really has it all, except for a really compelling story. Bethesda could really learn from the Dragon Age Origins.

Butt ugly ape” remarked Sergeant Johnson always making fun out of the situation even though he had been hit by a spiker round in the arm. He mustered up the strength to continue and the team moved on. The Arbiter informed him that the next room held The Prophet of Truth and this was the final room before extraction. Jun proposed that he takes a shot from a distance the prophet and they all head back to the ship bay for extraction. The team agreed on this and breached the last door…

Syndicate (2011)

Also the audio on this game gives me the chills.

Currently studying Computer Science & Software engineering. Hope to work on mobile devices of the future! When a certain game's credits roll, look out for my name! ;)

You will -blam!- bricks when you see what game it is! =)

Anything from id SOtware has set the standards for the industry. The rest are still just trying to replicate John Carmack's magic.

From Commander Keen to Rage, every new engine is a landmark.

Looks great. It almost looks too good, like Final Fantasy with the character animations and such.

I predict that Crysis 3 will have the best graphics.

Without mods, vanilla max Crysis just doesn't complete with high-end 2012 games.
