But isn't Halo 3 like 640P native or something like that not 720P or 1080P native?

Not sure, but I'm sure if Bungie adapted the KZ2 engine, they could get it to work on the 360 (even if it was slightly dumbed down). They're pretty talented too.

On another note, how most publications gave Halo 3, 9s and 9.5s for visuals is pretty ridiculous. That game deserved an 8/10 graphics score at best.

I agree, Halo 3 does have a few very cool set design pieces, but no way does it deserve a 9 and above for graphics. ODST looks tons better in my opinion, but still not close to Uncharted realm.

Well look at GTAIV some reviews say that the graphics are like 10 out of 10 and I would give it more like 6 or 7 out of 10 and thats me being generous about it.

Just checked and Halo 3 is in 1152×640 resolution

Seriously 10/10 graphics on GTA IV. That is the biggest Epic failure in ratings this generation. That and giving the gameplay of GTA IV more than a 4/10..

GTA IV rec'd it's ratings for graphics because of the amount of objects on the screen and the draw distances they achieved with the engine. Yes the graphics don't look amazing like in Uncharted or other games but the sheer size of the environment is what impressed reviewers.

Ok, we'll agree to disagree on the graphics. I agree the scale is great but covering a massive area in my opinion doesn't justify a 10. Still I wouldn't give it a ten..

But the gameplay.. Would you really defend a score of 10/10 on the gameplay??? The hand to hand combat is so freaking clunky and the gunplay isn't much better as well.. yet IGN writes this and scores it higher well than pretty much lots of games with better gameplay.

10 Gameplay
The cover and targeting system work great. Blind firing with an RPG is a thing of beauty. Everything works in harmony and not a single one of the missions is bad. The most fun I've had in years.

Yeah I tried out GTAIV before the trophy patch and I was so unimpressed with it and just wondered to myself why do people buy it. Yeah I think more reviewers given GTAIV 10 out of 10 on the gamplay more than the graphics and some even say that it's a possibility for like Game of the Year award.

I've been playing (and loving) GTA games since i was at school and I think GT4 is the worst GTA game ever made. IMO the driving was s**t, the characters were s**t and the story was s**t. It tried way too hard to take itself serious but then wanted the same comedy as previous installments. It didn't work on so many levels.

Then there was the reviews...(i won't even go there)
