In your opinion

I say The Last of Us, Assassins Creed Origins, or the new God of War.

What do you think?

It did look pretty good. Too bad it was mediocre overall. And don't get me started on Advent.

MMZ series for GBA is top tier though

I actually really loved the game overall but I understand that's a pretty unpopular opinion.

But either way, both the graphics and music were killer. I mean, have you seen how many frames they put into stuff like ZX's hair animation? That's common enough with 3D games that have complex physics engines but some poor soul actually sat there and drew hundreds of sprites of hair flapping in the breeze. And the colors--dang man. Despite high saturation, everything is easy on the eyes and most of the game just feels like a nice Spring day. Even areas I and J have lots of eye pleasing color effects going on, and that rain was beautiful.

'Best' is a lot of things. Let's go for games with strongly defined and functional/thematically relevant art direction that make everything about the game's presentation work for them.

I'd actually argue in favour of Yoshi's Island - the crayon style is still fucking beautiful today.

But if we're just going for a technical rather than a stylistic level, then it's probably God of War.

I forgot about that, but absolutely. The story book art direction was on point there, and they did better there than in Yoshi's story like four years later.

YI is also a strong contender. The crayon look was nice for so many reasons--and it actually works really well with the low SD resolution.

True. Even if it's more of an interactive movie it's eye candy.

Crysis was ahead of its time. Like, literally. Even top of the line gaming pcs were having trouble running it on max iirc.

Crysis still looks fantastic even by today's standards. That game was so far ahead of its time it's ridiculous.

I actually never got to play Crysis until 2 or 3 years ago. I had never heard anything about it other than graphics, graphics, graphics, so I wasn't expecting much of a game, but more of a giant tech demo or something. Boy was I wrong, it's actually a ton of fun to play, too. Linear, yet somehow open-ended at the same time, with multiple ways of dealing with enemies and reaching objectives, and the suit powers are fun to utilize.

Im impressed by Bloodborne. One time I was charging my controller so I sat near the TV and was kind of blown away by the textures.

GTAV with mods is insane
