Not saying that Twilight Princess wasn't, though. It's just after playing those games, I figured the next Zelda game they make would pick up on that kind of detail. I mean, those games blew me away.
I get you. I guess it's just because I've played so many games that visually blow God of War out of the water that I didn't exactly get what you were saying. As good as both of those games still look, they're outdated by today's standards.

Seriously. Fable 2 is ugly as hell.

Yeah, pretty much.

Well...it never really had that title to begin with. God of War has always been really good looking, but I don't think it's ever been the most visual impressive title available at any point.

Hmm...

Well, out of all the games I played, the God of War series impressed me the most. That's a bold statement saying that it 'never had the title'.

But, I guess I gotta believe you.

It isn't a bold statement, though, because it simply never was. On the PS2, yes. Both God of War games were at the height of technical prowess when they were released on the PS2.

But you have to realize that by the time God of War was released in, I THINK, February or March of 2005, Resident Evil 4 had recently been released on the Gamecube, and mind-blowing games like Shadow of the Colossus would be released later in the year on the PS2, not to mention the 360 itself late in 05', which brought with it Kameo.

When God of War II came out, we were already a couple years into the next-gen, so there was simply no way it could compete with already released titles like Gears of War, or soon to be released titles like BioShock, or even the "Rule 63" of Kratos with Heavenly Sword.

Again, not saying the God of War games aren't impressive, especially the second one, which did a lot of really amazing things with scale on the PS2, but they've never been the big graphical power house.
