Uncharted 4 is most Graphically advanced videogame ever created on any platform:

Naughty Dogs are wizard, an absolute wizard .

That one last image looks soo detailed. Seems like they've reached the graphical fidelity of that 2014 E3 trailer.

Upgrade confirmed!

[OrganicOrange]

Kurapika, have you retrieved your tribe's kurta eyes yet?

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Already did, Orange.

Now I'm just sitting here staring at them while I wait for Togashi to write more HxH episodes...

[OrganicOrange]

Lmao, so sad. Kurapika in his suit and tie just staring at his collected eyes. Don't think we'll get any more episodes any time soon :( Darn you Togashi's back problems

[Genuine-User]

Same screenshots, higher resolution:

Look at that draw distance. It's insane.

Naughty Dog are clearly aliens, time travelers or genetic experiments living amongst us because our primitive civilisation makes them feel superior, which they are.

[scark92]

I cannot take it! I NEED IT.

[TWB]

Thank you, I was just about to comment that you cant just make claims like that and present pixelporridge as a proof.

These are much better.

[rezzah]

That last image is amazing. Didn't expect UC to look so good.

[dRanzer]

Didnt expect?
u2&3 was one of the most looking good games last gen,its very clear that ND are about to do it again with u4 on ps4

[monkeyDzoro]

Yeah. I remember some people writing blogs (during PSX UC4 demo) about how NaughtyDogs LIED to us. Claiming that the demo looked 'bad' compared to the E3 reveal. Making screenshots comparison between two differents settings and lightings.
Now they're all QUIET. Witnessing the wizardry of the 'GOTY Gods'. LooL.
That face on the last pic is as DETAILED as the one during the E3 reveal.

Impressive.

[ape007]

indeed the best looking game ever made

achieving these gfx on ps4 prove my point that PC gaming doesn't really take potential of gfx cards out there, PC games are console builds just in higher FPS/RES

don't get me wrong if u have PC, enjoy it, run games at 60FPS 1440p more power to u

[Supporter]

So does that mean that the ps4's advantage over the xbox one with regards to multiplatform titles is, just builds in higher resolution/FPS thus meaningless and not noteworthy?

If that's the case then exclusive content would be the defining factor, or quality... which are subjective.

basically any time the pen hits the paper and does actual math, it is meaningless. but subjective ideas of what is important about games are the determining factor.... Unless its about ps4 vs xbox one; of course then framerate/resolution matters.

The level of apathy I've reached with this whole topic is just bleh.

Gaymez Soh gud! I love em.

[LexHazard79]

Im not saying you're wrong because UC is a graphic beast. But Im sure ND could achieve something greater had UC been a PC exclusive with all the extra power. ProbleM is not all gaming Pc have same set up.

[Clunkyd]

@BakpAin

lol I don't think we'll ever see an exclusive AAA game on PC these days. Just one of the benefits having a company behind a platform.

[DJ-DK786]

@Clunkyd Anno 2205, Star Citizen, Unreal Tournament, and Overwatch are just a few upcoming PC exclusive titles.

[Flewid638]

I still give the graphical nod to The Order. But obviously Uncharted will be the better game.

[cyberFUTUR3]

Don't want to be a buzz killer, I love Naughty Dog and Uncharted, but these two pictures are not in game:

http://bignoobs.com/wp-cont...
http://cdn4.dualshockers.co...

These are in game, taken from the Gamersyde video of the E3 demo (high quality):
http://img15.hostingpics.ne...
http://img15.hostingpics.ne...

Yes there is compression and it will be better in game, but I don't think it will top the quality of the two first pictures.

[Walker]

judging framebuffer graphics based on gamersyde videos ? gamersyde's UC4 videos are compressed as hell :) .

Those upper shots are direct-feed via Naughty Dog and that's the real quality you're gonna see in your screen !

[JWiLL552]

Are you really comparing direct feed screenshots to screens from a compressed video?

The images on top are what it'll look like on your screen while playing, the images below are what it'll look like on your screen through a compressed video.

Why would screenshots from a video be a better representation than direct feed shots? They aren't bullshots. There's no supersampling happening in those direct feed shots.

[cyberFUTUR3]

I hope so but these videos are not as compressed as that. Whatever, we will see that easily when the game will be released, there are going to be many comparisons.

[DoomeDx]

"level-up animation" what?

[deim0s]

"They likewise believe that they have done it currently in the past"

yeaaaah. Even Google translated articles tend to make more sense than this.

[Bathyj]

It sounds like someone was trying to prove the infinite monkey theorem, and it didn't quite come off.

[AgentSmithPS4]

I suspect it'll be like when He-man activates his power ;).

[SeanScythe]

Maybe for multiplayer?

[1nsomniac]

"PS4's most recent memory ability upgrade" .....wait, what??

[Minute Man 721]

I believe that only 4.5 GB was available to devs @ launch. Eventually devs will have 7 GBs for games reserving 1 GB for the OS

[pivotplease]

That seems fair. The PS3 OS ran on a quarter of the memory and did more than both next gen systems combined. It was a bit slower in the end but it was still quite an accomplishment.

[1nsomniac]

Is that guess work on your part or is that official?

I've not heard that, I heard almost a year ago that there was a possibility of hopefully opening 5.5GB to developers later down the line but it wasn't concrete. 7GB would be awesome, I'm not entirely sure how the entire OS with background apps, downloads, instant switching & Morpheus integration will fit into 1GB though without at least some slowdown issues.

[Minute Man 721]

I read that somewhere awhile back. My guess is that Morpheus would use what's available without needing to touch the OS

[Bathyj]

Was this article Google translated? Maybe I'm sleep deprived from watching The Ashes but it seems like terrible writing if it is in fact native English.

[scark92]

I read it and was thinking I was dumb for not understanding it clearly, glad to know I ain't the only one.

[ClayRules2012]

I look at The Order 1886 & still think " Simply stunning" My first reaction to The Order was similar to my reaction to seeing Uncharted Drakes Fortune for the first time on my PS3, in 2008. WOW! Next gen is here. We can't possibly get better looking games then this.

Uncharted 4 looks much better than The Order "in my opinion" & that game is a technical marvel in itself.

With Uncharted 4 A Thief's End, I get the same reaction to seeing Uncharted 2 Among Thieves for the first time in 2009. Is this really running on a PS3? Its not possible. Naughty Dog are the BEST in the industry "in my opinion"

[SeanScythe]

Just think of how insane The Last of Us 2 will look.... This is ND's first outing on the ps4 imagine what they will do after uncharted. Look at how Uncharted 2 looked after the first one.

[PR_FROM_OHIO]

And look how much better TLOU looked then Uncharted 2! It's scary to think what Naughty Dog will do in 3-4 years!!!

[ClayRules2012]

Haha, I know. Its going to be absolutely insane to see how much better ND's next game will be, after seeing Uncharted 4.

Imagine what their last game will look like, at the end of the PS4 life cycle.

[Irishguy95]

Certainly shows how important graphics are compared to the rest of the game XD

Lucky enough ND back up their graphics with awesome everything else.

[ClayRules2012]

Lol. I know a lot of people didn't like The Order, but I personally loved it. Regardless of its shortcomings.

I do agree with you, in terms of ND. They deliver on all elements of their games. They raise the bar for visuals, story ect.

[dafegamer]

level up what?

[Shadow Man]

The Cell

[nitus10]

Yes that's what I thought too. I don't remember any part of the Uncharted games where the characters "level up" unless you count a cut scene which are fairly rare or a new weapon.

[shysun]

Looks great but I'm cutting my self off from footage of this game.

[TwoForce]

I will buy Uncharted Collection and this. Naughty Dogs is God.

[mayberry]

Game looks amazing.

[beereal360]

It looks good but halo 5 looks leaps ahead and it's no where near as linear

[hugogs]

lmao ^

[nitus10]

If you like FPS games then I suppose Halo is ok, but Uncharted is an third person Action/Adventure shooter with puzzle features so there is the difference.

If you want to compare Halo please compare against other FPS games although my take on FPS's is "If it moves you kill it, if it doesn't move you kill it anyway" -- Ducks for cover behind a chest high wall and takes out a BFG.

[Kaneki-Ken]

Halo5 graphic doesn't look realistic as Uncharted4 graphic.

[zod]

AC UNITY ON ULTRA ON PC looks better..I can prove it.
