25 Most Visually Appealing Games of 2013

Time, moving quickly as it always does at this time of the year, has left me in a bit of a daze. It barely feels like yesterday that 2012 was rolling around, and now 2013 is just around the corner; beckoning in yet another six month period where I will consistently fill out the year part of dates on forms incorrectly. 2013 won't be all about mistaking the date though, as graphics and processing power are set to improve, as they always do with time. Whilst we get old and decay, PCs and consoles only get better, meaning that we'll have some of the best looking games yet gracing our doorsteps in the coming months. We've lined up 25 of the best for your perusal."

not many people give a damn about Lost Planet 3

JsonHenry4142d ago

FAIL list. Put in Starcraft 2 expansion with its cartoony GFX but no mention of the Frostbite 2.0 Command and Conquer Generals 2 being released next year? Lawls!

Allsystemgamer4142d ago

At called art style. Read up on it. I guess borderlands looks bad to you huh?

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4142d ago (Edited 4142d ago )

so if something is cartoony it's not visually appealing?

Command and Conquer Generals 2 to bad it's a f2p by EA. Game over..

piroh4142d ago

Beyond
Last of Us
GOW ascension
Last Guardian

in no specific order

ABizzel14142d ago

I love borderlands, but it's a bad example to use for proving cell shade is "visually appealing".

Not to mention You never see the game at that angel, when you're playing it. Try these instead.

And there's so much more. If that doesn't do it for you then nothing will.

Ezz20134142d ago

crysis 3

the last of us
god of war ascension
beyond two souls

Roccetarius4141d ago (Edited 4141d ago )

No one has faith in C&C Generals 2 anyways.

ABizzel14141d ago

Lol at all the disagrees. Those are games that don't rely on heavy processing and rending, but instead unique art style.

Project CARS
Command and Conquer Generals 2
Firefall
Total War: Rome 2

ALL should be on the list!

I have No clue how Starcraft 2 Heart of The Swarm made the list. Sure it has some nicely detailed units and a large amount of on screen units but Total War: Rome 2 flatout DESTROYS Starcraft 2 as far as Graphics!

Firefall is a the Best looking Cell Shaded game EVER. It makes Borderlands 2 PC look like CRAP!

Command and Conquer Generals 2 is on the Frostbite 2 engine and it will look PRETTY and play like CRAP....Thanks EA for once AGAIN screwing up a great series.

Project CARS kills every Racer as far as Graphics....and u can maybe even say Gameplay too and yes I 've been playing the ALPHA version and in it's ALPHA state P.C. is dam good!

PinkFunk4142d ago

Dayum. I've not really checked up on PC games in some time. Used to be a CS 1.3-1.6 player, then went to PS3. Love my PS3 exclusives.

But watching Firefall, Total War Rome 2, and Metro Last Light recently makes me really uh, whoa.

PC gaming has come a long way...

Jazz41084142d ago (Edited 4142d ago )

Piroh.. thats a perfect list for the sony lover. Should go over great on n4g.

Freak of Nature4142d ago

I will agree that Project cars looks fantastic! And still not totally polished.

Lost planet 3 also does look very good to great. as for the gameplay that is still up in the air for me.

I think the best lookers at this time keeping in mind there is still time for extra polish....

Not in order...

Watch Dogs
starwars 1313
metro: last light
crysis 3
BF4

consoles list not in order :

the last of us
god of war ascension
Grid 2
MGS:GZ
tomb raider
gears of war J

I think that **Media Molecule** with there new IP could be something extra special. We should be hearing more on the system Ps3 pr Ps4 soon, but I get a strong feeling it will be Ps4, to get it going in the fast lane fast.

I am surprised I don't see any mention of *Rayman legends*?

I also wonder about the next gen, any new yet to be seen IP's?

The **last guardian and Beyond good and evil 2** should be showing us something this year, but are both beyond 2013 I am guessing...

IAmLee4142d ago

WHY MUST THEY SPREAD IT OUT ACROSS SO MANY PAGES!

BISHOP-BRASIL4142d ago

Why must you type in caps lock? LOL

More pages demand more clicks. More clicks generate more ad money.

EddieNX 4142d ago

Resident evil revelations and Kid icarus uprising. The 2 most visualy appealing games of 2012. Nuff said....

charted4142d ago

You guys are crazy to leave out Metro: Last Light from your lists. It's gonna be good.

Get a decent graphics card and you can make a lot of games visually appealing.

Walker4142d ago

The Last of Us Looks fantastic for current gen !

Isn't this just a list of games that are scheduled for 2013?
Some of this games haven't had a single screenshot released, like Battlefield 4.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC1h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer2h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey6021h ago(Edited 1h ago)

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
