Uncharted 2 has set a new benchmark in visuals. The game had plenty of stunning moments and the country of Nepal was represented in such a way that no video game before was able to do. But there are about a number of games that can challenge Uncharted 2 visually. Here are six of them:
God of War 3
God of War 3 is one the games that will give Uncharted 2: Among Thieves a good challenge.The character models and their animations are top notch. The way the blood is represented in the game is truly unique. Hell, when you are hacking n slashing blood will pour all over your body much like when Nathan Drake gets his clothes wet. The scale of the environments are stunning and the huge enemies should look amazing on your HDTV. Watch this game closely as this might give Uncharted 2: Among Thieves a good scare.
Assassins Creed 2
Ubisoft have always been known for their amazing visuals in their video games. The way that Ezio moves is amazing. The animations of Ezio and that of Drake while jumping and diving are almost very much similar since both games essentially have a lot of plat forming sections in them. Again as with many of Ubisoft games the scale of the cities in Italy is going to be amazing. Ezio will move and attack in a realistic way which will make Ezio very much similar to our hero Nathan Drake.
Splinter Cell: Conviction
Sam Fisher never looked so good. And in the upcoming Xbox 360 exclusive, Conviction should be able to challenge Uncharted 2 visuals. The firefights and the presentation is awesome which makes Conviction a game that we should keep an eye out for. The only thing that might go against is this game is the graphics of the enemies, so far they are pretty bland. If Ubisoft can fix them up than we are in for a treat.
Rage
Rage is an upcoming first-person shooter and racing video game being developed by id Software.It will be using the id Software’s new id Tech 5 engine.Now Rage is one game that looks visually stunning. And as its being developed by id Software we can be rest assure the end product will be nothing short of spectacular. We at-least here are counting on this beautiful piece of art. Rage will surely be a visual delight for all parties concerned. Hope it doesn’t disappoint.
Heavy Rain
Heavy Rain being developed by, Quantic Dreamc, who also made games like Fahrenheit,is an upcoming AAA PS3 title. Ever since it was first shown back at E3 2006, it caught the eyes of everyone and people were stunned by the quality of tech demo that was shown. Everyone has been in love with heavy rain since then and one of the reason is the sense of realism associated with Heavy Rain. Everything seems so close to real life that everytime you see a new Heavy Rain trailer you are left amazed and thats mainly due to the awe-inspiring visuals. We bet Heavy Rain will give Uncharted 2 a run for its money as far as the graphics are concerned.
Alan Wake
Alan Wake is an upcoming Xbox 360 exclusive by Remedy Entertainment, the company behind Max Payne games. It features open-ended world backed by an epic story. First thing you notice about Alan Wake are the beautiful visuals. Everything from environment to characters seems stunning and attention to detail is clearly shown on screen. This is one game to watch out for in 2010. And definitily should make the guys at Naughty Dog a bit worried.
