    Are we talking games that are out, or games that are close to release, or games in development?

    Max Payne 2. Really good graphics and facial animations.

    Though I've never played it like 98% of the gaming populations says Far Cry so...

    Ok then... I predict that Half-Life 62 will have the best graphics.

    Of the games I've played, I would say Morrowind. Enduring a sandstorm in a Daedra ruins or wading through the water under a silt strider are things not easily forgotten.

    Lock On. Incredible graphics. But even if your machine gets 350FPS in Quake III, you'll still only get 10 or 15 in this CPU pig.

    Flight Simulator 2002 and 2004. Incredible eye candy flying over L.A. International Airport at 1600x1200 in 32 bit colour.

    Il2-Forgotten Battles. Put twenty JU-88s flying over Leningrad at night with searchlights hunting them while flak and night fighters chase them down and you have aWWII movie right on your screen. Again though, this can take a very heavy computer to pull off.

    Splinter Cell. It also has some serious eye candy.

    Couldn't have said it better myself. But I might add:

    -STALKER (PC)
    -Fable (X-BOX)
    -Eve Online (currently available space MMORPG)
    -Colin McRae 4 (PC)
    -Pro Race Driver 2 (PC)
    -Il-2 Forgotten Battles(PC)
    -Star Wars: Republic Commandos

    And a few more...

    Mafia - Its a 1920s mobster game. The cars/buildings/peoples all look nice, they have the theme down quite well. Which is saying alot for me, because I usually don't care for graphics. Mafia just does it so well.

    you asked for screenshots. here's one from railroad tycoon iii. this one made use of some real world aerial photographs which i imported into the editor and turned into a map in the game.

    Definately Monkey Island 3... perhaps not the best from the series, but the prettiest one for sure. And you can fire this one up in ten years and still enjoy it very much (yeah, yeah, I know... just like Pong... )

    I was also very surprised by the graphics from Railroad Tycoon III Krae, very pretty game indeed

    As for flightsims, Lockon definately has the best graphics on the ground... but I think FS2004 wins it in the air... the lighting and clouds are simply amazing

    Unreal 3. There is a thread around here somewhere with a trailer. It made me cry with it's beauty.

    Bah. Half-Life 62 will easily beat Unreal 3.

    I guess I'm just stating the obvious

    Half Life 1476 will beat Unreal 1475

    *Note, NO more unreal products are made because the company went bankrupt as no one would buy unreal because HL was SO much better.
