Check out some of the previously released screens from RAGE.

With about two months to go for RAGE, there should be no doubt that the game should be high on the wishlist of many gamers out there. Other than its awesome and addictive  gameplay, there is also a lot of hype sorroudning its visuals and the slick sixty frames per second that this monster will run at.
John Carmack, the legendary developer at id Software certainly thinks that Rage is arguable the best looking game in the market.

Rage is arguably the best-looking thing out there, but my personal point of pride is that it runs at twice the frame rate of almost all our competitors’. It is a 60-frame-per-second (FPS) game that looks like nothing anyone has seen before.
I had the opportunity with this generation to push the graphics in artistic directions that could have been somewhat more exotic than what we chose here, but it would have been at the expense of being a 30 FPS game. I made the early decision that, if we pick this technical direction, we could have this environment that looks incredibly awesome, but can be done at 60 frames per second.

We can all agree that sixty frames per second along with sharp visuals are the hallmarks of the RAGE.
RAGE releases this October on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.
