7 of the most visually impressive games in recent years [Gallery]

Mass Effect 2 (Xbox 360)

Mass Effect 2 is a stunning game- be it in the story department, characters, sound, gameplay, or even the
visuals. While not as mind-blowing as, say, Uncharted 2 or Crysis, Mass Effect 2 has one of the best art designs in any game out there. The environments are detailed and intriguing, character models very well built, and the overall sheen and polish of the visuals ups the atmospheric and involving nature of the game. The game looks more or less same on both the platforms, but we came across more visual glitches in the PS3 version than we did in the Xbox 360 version, therefore we have listed the 360 version of the game.
