What amazed me most with Horizon Forbidden West, was the difference you could see in the materials that make up the character's clothing. You can really see the difference between leather, cloth, metal, plastic, rubber, etc the face paint as well, some have gloss, some are matte, and some look like chalk. Aloy's hair is still a bit wonky sometimes but Kathallo looked almost like a real person, there were moments where it felt like it was beyond a video game, I'm just at the beginning of the burning shores, so I'll see just how much better it looks. Cyberpunk also has some amazing clothing and material textures and I like the way Cyberpunk's cut scenes are, where you're fully in control and in the moment, like you're actually living it, I played it on Xbox One when it was fully of bugs and jank, but when I upgraded to Series X it truly was like a brand new game.
dude , is just a desk version , they fake the diferences.
In game development are ya@@cosmincoco3679
Is Burning Shores related to the main storyline?
The final hour of Burning Shores is so cool!!
It was a PS5 exclusive because the finale would've blown up a PS4!
@@wildankael2169😮😮😮😮😮❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Avatar was a visually stunning game, well deserving of the number 1 spot on this list. Typically with open world games, I don't like playing the game during in-game nights. But how the flora lit up in bioluminescence it was so captivating to explore. Ubisoft gets a lot of flack, but if there's one thing they consistently do right, it's realistic and believable environments.
Just finished it a few days ago and it is hands down the most incredible looking game I've ever seen - and has a great gameplay loop as steal raiding bases is huge fun.
They should make a linear game. They could pull it off well. The only major I have with their games is being repetitive. Even stories are often good
Still a Ubisoft game.
all money, no creativity.
@@thomasnielsen5580 says you
I think The Finals is severely underrated in terms of its visual presentation from graphics to animation to performance, because it’s a free to play fps game it gets written off by the larger gaming community. I truly think it has some of the best looking maps in FPS game history and the animation and effects are also top of the industry, and this is coming from a new, relatively small studio.
What you been smoking??
@@legacygtb5934 ????? are we playing the same game?
The destruction tech is cool. But all the rest looks very plastic and shiny. Also comparing a tiny map with a few people with huge open world worlds with weather, realtime lighting and day/night cycles wouldn’t make it any better
@@gunnarragnarsson9563 i highly disagree that it looks plastic and shiny, at least in the sense that you’re describing it. if anything, that adds to the visual appeal. but it’s really the lighting of the finals that is the standout, anyway. and it also does have realtime lighting, and it’s especially applicable with the destruction. it also has day/night/fog/sunset/other weather conditions that capitalize on its lighting technology. so I think it’s absolutely comparable. and also, the maps aren’t even that small. they’re bigger than you might realize. another overlooked thing about the maps is how good the backdrops look. if you take a moment to look and appreciate how good the backdrops are, you’ll start to really see the visual quality of the maps in the game.
@@samhyatt4863 I agree but the execution of the destructible environments is really flawed. Not even flawed just had crazy potential. It’s just not as spontaneous or easy to execute as advertised. Sure it had its moments and it’s better than most shooters out there now it wont be that groundbreaking due to its high system requirements and small selection of maps. Really hope embark studios picks up the slack, If they do it would undeniably be the shooter of the decade.
Horizon is such a great series. I still remember the first time finding a cauldron. It was so amazing looking. Such a contrast to the above world.
Alan Wake 2 blew me away, and I already had some expectations because I'm a Remedy-Head. Just amazing what Sam Lake and his guys have done with the series and the new Remedy Shared Universe. Cannot wait to see where it goes next, hopefully Control 2, maybe getting Quantum Break from Microsoft like they did AW and doing a sequel to that? Or Max Payne from Rockstar?
Alan Wake 2, reduces a 4090 into a mid-tier card!!!!!
I was like no way!!!!
Read about it, finally got the game and I was like Way!!!!
64 gig of ram helps increase that games fps by like 10% or so though. More games are needing 64 Gig to stop bottleneck by Ram.
At the time, I only had 32 gig. Just Got my Corsair Dominator RGB Platinum 6000mhz 30CL 64 gig (2x32) Ram. Have not tried game yet with it.
Been busy playing the heck out of Horizon Zero Dawn. Not sure if I will finish by Thurs.
Next game in the series comes out Forbidden West.
I am not a console player, strictly PC Gamer (Master Race). Thus, never played the game and can't wait because, Horizon Zero Dawn blows me away!!!!
Incredible Game and I'd say series as well, for so many liked the second game so much.
LONG LIVE THE HORIZON SERIES!!!!!
The only thing I would have added to Jusant was a scope so that you could look back on traversed path and take in the vistas. It was a surprisingly good looking game, really capturing that feeling you get when you hike up a mountain.
Frontiers of Pandora was one of my surprise hits of 2023. Just the experience of being there was worth the price of admission
That’s exactly why I got it. Just to be in that world and it was so fun
👍🏼
I absolutely love the face animations of cyberpunk 2077 so detailed, so believable
I was thinking Atomic Heart deserved at least an honorable mention, it was really a great looking game.
Yea it was an OK looking game
@@dr.loomis4221your opinion doesnt negate that the game does actually look great. You know that right? What a clown.
I think it looks good but it feels really bad that the game was advertised as Ray Traced a lot and it's not there yet.
Horizon should have definitely been further up the list, especially ahead of Metroid. Both 1 and 2 are gaming masterpieces. Falcon never gives Horizon enough love on these lists.
I thought maybe since it was just DLC, but sometimes I wonder.
I feel like dude just don't like horizon but cant say it out loud.
We all know that Ubisoft's openworld games are so huge and tons of things to collect, which we can be tiring or tedious. However, there is no denying that their games are breath taking and its very true. One of the games that you just stop and take time appreciate the view. Their photo realism is top notch.
I took a change with Horizon and it has paid of in so many ways. I'm not one to spend time looking in places for things you wouldn't normally see but I should.
IMO, one of the best game series of all time. It will be very hard to beat.
I was liking the first one a lot playing on the hardest difficulty until I noticed how every monster has a limit to where they can follow you (kinda small area tbh) that broke the immersion and difficulty, how fast they reappear after just beating them and finally the way their attacks didn't matched with the animations (something really annoying at max difficulty), I hope all that changed in the second game.
@@DarckAngel11 Also the combat felt very repetitive and the machines were just sponges if you didn't have the best gears, hopefully that's fixed as well
@@gpfhantom1890 Machines are anything but sponges, you're really not playing the game correctly.
@@Divinicus1er pretty sure I'm
The "Delicated Weapon" performance by Lizzy Wizzy / Grimes in Phantom Liberty is one of the most immersive moments I had in all videogames I've played, I was in awe of how beautiful it was and how it integrated so nicelly into the game, it's pure art.
Great choices. They were all terrific in their own way. The only game that was missing in my opinion was Hogwarts. Even if you did not like the game (which I did) the visuals are absolutely stunning and the castle was brought to life with incredible detail.
And Spiderman 2
Spiderman 2 , RE4 , jedi survivor , Hogwarts were all missing
And he included metroid and jusant 🤡
@@haleemjouda9720 Yeah Spiderman 2 is a good call. I am on the fence about Jedi Survivor because it STILL doesn't run well on the PC but it is a good looking game no doubt.
@@haleemjouda9720this is when you go create your own youtube video. Oh wait. You don't have a creative bone in your body.
I’d like to give Hi-Fi Rush some love for its beautiful world and art direction. It seriously had no bugs, the art was awesome, and it ran like butter. I’ve never seen a studio get cell shading so right. Love that game.
Remnant 2 was the prettiest game I played this year. The environments are just outstanding.
Happy to see Avatar at number one. That is the best looking game I've ever played in my entire life, even beating RDR2. Absolutely ridiculous.
Ive been playing Metroid Prime 2 for the GameCube on my Wii this past week with a HDMI adapter! Really surprised me at how well a game from 2004 was holding up on my smart tv!
You forgot Rise of Kong. A graphical masterpiece, scratch that, a masterpiece overall. Best game humanity has ever had the ability to come in contact with. I truly became a holy believer after playing Rise of Kong. I was just so impressed by the crispy unreal engine 5 graphics, logical physics Isaac Newton himself would approve of, the amazing storytelling of kong konging everything on kong island. I truly pray to this game every night knowing I would not be able to make another day without playing Rise of Kong, the truly most magnificent game of all fucking time!!
It's Kongin Time
Avatar completely deserves this spot for the absolutely astounding graphical prowess. It's also a pretty good game, one of Ubisoft's best.
I also ADORE Jusant. So much.
Forbidden west is by far the most beautiful game ive ever played. I originally played it on ps4 pro and thought that. But when Burning shores came out i had a ps5 and i was just in awe everytime i booted it up until the moment i was finished with it. In fact i had the platinum. But i went and min maxed my kit and did some stufff i skipped and spent abother 20 to 25 hours in the world which is much longer than the axtual dlc.and i already had well over 100 hours into it.
I played it on the PS5 from the get go, but I still found the Burning Shores to me a massive visual upgrade on the main game. The cloud systems alone were amazing, and the entire new region felt really cool to explore.
Thats the difference between forbidden west being a ps4 game with a ps5 upgrade and burning shores being specifically developed for the ps5
@@paulharper4196 yeah but more so guerilla games because developers have had plenty time to make beautiful games and the best graphics I've seen are probably ff16 and 7 rebirth. Nothing compares to and runs as smoothly as forbidden West.
@@Sctn187 yeah sadly I'll probably never play burning shores as I found forbidden west so boring I couldn't carry on playing. I adored zero dawn but forbidden west just felt like more of the same, didn't have the charm or originality of zero dawn.
Been loving the work you guys are putting in the videos these days! They really help me get through my 9-5 life. So, THANKS GAMERANX!
why was Rachet and Clank Rift Apart on a 2023 list when it was a 2021 release? Spider-Man 2 and Jedi Survivor not making this list was a crime tbh.
They're talking about the PC version that released in 2023.
@@dr.loomis4221 ah ok makes sense I don’t buy it on PC.
@@dr.loomis4221 I must have missed where they said for PC lol
I'd like to stand up for The Invincible. I don't think it was on anyone's bucket list last year but there were many moments in the game where I stopped just to look at stuff because it is as close to being on an alien world as I'm ever going to get.
Resident evil 4 remake was a great looking game in my opinion. Absolutely loved alan wake 2, super stunning.
🤝
I just finished Avatar at around 84 hours put in and I definitely have my issues with it and by the end it felt kind of like a chore (well it’s Ubisoft sooo), BUT damn I haven’t screen capped that many images and short video clips in a long time. The environments are really a marvel. It always felt new every time I hopped on the Ikran
How is the combat? My thing is I have to enjoy the mechanics to keep me interested.
Avatar hands down the most beautiful game of 2023.
The water looks terrible
Great list! I want to say graphics aren't everything - I really enjoyed Zelda TotK. But, damn if I didn't also enjoy Alan Wake 2, Jusant, & the Dead Space Remake. They're great examples of how graphics can really elevate the mood & atmospherics of a game.
What a video, some amazing games I love - Horizon, Metroid, Avatar, Jusant, Cyberpunk. Some I havent even played but rly want to
not even once mentioning ARK: Survival Ascended is crazy
putting Metroid at #3 is a crime when games like ARK and Lords of The Fallen came out the same year
Great video as always
How was Spiderman 2 not on this list? Or did I miss it? I guess I'll have to watch the video more thoroughly when I'm not working... Spiderman 2 had pretty insane graphics (especially in the cutscenes). So much so that I was very upset that I couldn't replay the game and watch the cutscenes with all the costumes unlocked in New game plus 😢
I feel like Horizon deserves more love, especially about their visuals. I spend time just looking at the view when I play.
I’ll do a push up every time Falcon says ‘I’m not a fan of Avatar but……’ 🤣
hahahaa i was just thinking about writing this comment...im getting a feeling ''someone'' got paid to do a good review and praise the game...im not saying it is so, but its a bit strange...
idk how many times ive already heard him mention Avatar in these recent videos tbh lol
I’ve really been enjoying the Talos Principle 2, it’s hard and half the time I need a bit of help but it’s super fun. It’s interesting that I had to print the maps because it does not have a real good map function. I am sure that’s what they intended.
Great list! Metroid Prime Remastered is probably my favorite game ever made. It also looks sooo good. Especially when you emulate it at 4K on a good OLED display.
Robocop should be on this list. The environments are insanely detailed.
Those character models and animations though...
Still one of my favorite games of 2023
I have to agree that Avatar really has beautiful world, design of the environment is just top notch.
The water looks like shit.
@@BryceCzirr-jz7juwanna be different so bad
I was personally pretty impressed with Jedi survivor. Idk if it was just me finally getting a series x and it being my first next gen game but i thought it looked really well with my son constantly saying how great everything looked lol
I have been having so much fun going back to older games on my new PC and playing on max in which I have not done in years!
I think dead island 2 is truly one of the most underrated games of a stacked 2023.
Thanks for recognizing Jusant. Jusant just exudes artistic style. Of course eye of the beholder and all that guff. Even technically it may seem to many that not much is going on, but there really is lighting and geometry tech going on. Jusant really shows what basic vertex shading can really accomplish.
Horizon is the GOAT game for me. my absolute favorite game. the gameplay, the lore, the world, everything about it, I fell in love from the very beginning of the first one.
cyberpunk if you got the pc for it , with path tracing and ray reconstruction alongside modded lighting looks actually photorealistic. just look it up if you never seen it before
The mission where you get your ikran in AFOP was one of my favorite moments in gaming last year. The game itself was very enjoyable but that specific mission was just amazing.
Just to let you know Falcon, Phantom Liberty is an expansion, not a dlc because WE DO EM BIG!
Avatar also has incredible spacial audio, it's the first game I've played which utilises dolby atmos properly.
Alan Wake 2 was such a treat. Came out around Halloween nd was a new scary game that held no punches. Loved it maybe one day do a second play through
I watch your videos at night before I go to sleep... do me a favor and invert your splash screen/logo colors for the countdown cards? lol. Nothing worse than a bright white flash in my face every couple minutes when I'm trying to wind down :P
In my opinion Horizon Forbidden west is the best looking game out right now visually and graphically.
I watched a Cyberpunk video with a realistic lighting and car mod and it looked more real than anything I’ve ever seen in a game.
The clouds in Burning Shores are incredible! Ive never seen something like that in a game. How did you not even mention that?!
The clouds don't move as time passes
@@edzyoutubehub 😱
I don't stop in a game long enough to watch the clouds go by.@@edzyoutubehub
Playing Avatar right now and it blow my mind how beautiful it looks at times. Very fun game and a bit of a surprise. And if you are an Avatar fan, it absolutely feels like a true extension of the story from the movies.
A Rift Apart amped up on PC is truly a sight to behold. Total eye candy from start to finish, but also a very fun game!
You guys didn't think Spider-Man 2 looked stunning?! I'm really shocked by it not being on this list, it was the best game of this year. Burning Shores should have been higher on this list also as it's one of the greatest DLC's of all time Forbidden West is the greatest game of all time for me personally. But Avatar does look great, I'm a little let down by the mission set up though which sucks because I was expecting a more action based game and more story drive aspect of Avatar not just go to things and scan and then fight RDA, kind of was a little bit of a let down. I give Avatar a 7 over all though.
Just because its not on their list doesn't mean they thought it looked bad.
Also it being the best game of its year is entirely your opinion.
@@sh-juno-1019 lol I’m aware it’s a personal opinion, thought I put that. Also yea it doesn’t mean they think it looks bad but there were some games on here that I didn’t think should have been for an over all perspective, Baulders Gate 3 wasn’t even on here. I understand they have a limit but some of these titles could have been removed for the clearly better looking games.
@@GAMERJEFFRO They probably just wanted throw in some deeper cuts in the list and some games where the art style shines instead of just picking more obvious choices
@@sh-juno-1019 that makes sense. Thanks
Before the PS5 came out there was a tech demo that sold me on the system. Four years later and I still have yet to see anything that comes close. So far the ps5 graphics have been disappointing.
I remember that tech demo, it looked absolutely unbelievable graphicaly
@@MrSkullMerchant right???
Hi Falcon 🦅. great content as usual .
Hey
The thing with Ray Tracing is that it is overdoing things at this point. I have never seen such darkness in shadows, or such bright neon lights, or the sky having such detail, OR the whole world reflecting on car door. They tried to take video game graphics closer to real life, but they have gone way to far in a new fantasy world. At this point i find myself preferring the non ray traced subtle reflections in older games, rather than the ones in new games.
No Baldurs Gate 3? That game has the Best character cut scenes I have ever seen in any game
for a CRPG dialog scene in BG3 are great but compared to let's say CP77? Yeah, still far behind in this regard
I've been playing video games since atari pong, the technology today is amazing, how much further can it go or has it plateaued
I am impressed with Metroid Prime Remake but that should be an honorable mention at best. I am also shocked that Nintendo didn't credit the original crew and the game is remade 1 for 1.
I'm way more impressed with how Tears of the Kingdom handles the transitions between three massive maps.
It's a good looking game with a huge world that runs pretty amazing considering its on a Switch.
I still feel Keanu, while a good actor, wasn't really the person I would've picked to play the Johnny Silverhand role. He feels out of place for the character, awkward and at times a bit cringe.
Gotta love the failed spear shot that made the montage haha
Turn based combat with the kaiji battles would be my perfect final fantasy game.
I just started Alan Wake 2 and I can't agree more. It is absolutely breathtaking. Too bad I have to take a lot breaks because I'm too scared LOL
And my honorable mention would be Jedi: Survivor. The game still tears and stutters but when it works, it's amazing. Especially that entire dessert mecha boss sequence--it'd be cool to see a 10 Best Recent Action Sequences in Video Games list hahahaha.
I have Dead Space for the PS5 and my 4070ti gaming PC is there any real graphic difference between those consoles if I had to play on one?
"DLC that feels like a sequel"
I like the sound of that.
2d sprites and pixel graphic have made a massive comeback, and many would argue that many of those game have more visual appeal.
Yes i love ori graphic style
Burning Shores was just effing incredible. Not just the graphics, but gameplay, story, voice acting and mo cap, music, sound design… so good.
Hi-Fi Rush and Resident Evil 4 Remake, for me. The first for stylized visuals and the other for realism with a strong personality.
Ark ascended was the most dope looking thing from my 2023 roster, best part is, I’m one of the few who can run it at 60 fps
You guys are the best. Only opinions about games I can blindly trust
Those Horizon games are just... wow 🔥
1.Horizon Burning Shores
2. Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty
3. Final Fantasy 16
4. Dead Island 2
Rift Apart was easily the best non-rpg game I played in 2023 and that was the first time in a long time where I stopped to look at the scenery.
Hey Gameranx, the petition to give "Days Gone" a sequel has been gaining traction and recently just hit another milestone, if you guys enjoyed the game enough to want to see a sequel, would u give it a shout out to draw attention to the growing petition? Maybe we could kick off enough interest other might follow and Sony might actually listen
I’m surprised you didn’t have Callisto protocol on here. That game blew my mind. Yeah dead space remake was epic but Callisto was insane.
You're one of my fav channels, and this generic stuff!
Great list
Ratchet and clank was the first game I booted up when I got my 4080 and good lord. Made the 4080 worth it in an instant
Zelda botw and totk graphics to me looks better than any other open world, the art style is just so spot on and works so well with the switch
I just got it and I'm blown away by a Switch game seamlessly transitioning from sky to surface and beyond. It's crazy how well optimized this game is.
Meteroid Prime is one of my favorite all-time games!
I agree with all of these games. CP2077 with the DLC and graphics is just amazing.
+1 Honorable mention - Ready or Not. Insane attention to details and great visuals.
👍🏼
I love that Dead Space made this list, that too ahead of Cyberpunk 2k7 PL
It looks amazing but I was having stuttering performance on PC 😭
@@GoofyToony Yup, it still has unresolved traversal stuttering. The last patch is from February 2023 😒
@@GoofyToonyit's too demanding
Yeah but CP77 looks IMO still better than the DS remake.. like ingame human models are way more detailed and have far better facial animations in CP77 than those in the DS remake, even more impressive when CP77 is a open-world RPG with tons of characters to meet and DS is a more linear, shorter horror-action game with only few characters
@@wes8723 I agree with you about the overall complexity and detail of CP2077, but the Dead Space Remake is far less demanding for how good it looks and feels, even after it was turned into a fully redone and seamless sandbox with overhauled set-pieces. As for linearity, it's more metroidvania now, rather than segmented chapters and sections of the ship you can't backtrack through.
Final Fantasy 16 was bit forced 😂 ( 720p ~ 50fps ).
so is Metroid...like they couldn't have found anything better?
Why is this comment section full of so many bots lol
At least they’re easy to pick out. Any one that’s avatar is a woman’s rear end. And the strange comments that are vague enough to work on any video.
state of the modern internet.
For Cyberpunk, it's important to note the actors only gave their voice and appearance. Every mimic, facial expression you're seeing is NOT relying on the actors. Idris Elba cleared that out in a video.
Assassin's Creed Mirage looks phenomenal I think it deserved a mention.
AC has been on the same engine looking almost identical each year for the last 6 years.
h8218 doesn't change the fact that Mirage looks the most gorgeous of them all 🤷♂️
@@astroghost001 Mirage side by side with Origins looks identical graphically 💀 it's an outdated engine.
I can't believe Lies of P isn't on this list. It looks absolutely fantastic.
Even 2 years after release, Horizon is a game that, every single time I play it, I catch myself multiple times saying, "This is a beautiful game."
No zombie type ever had me more scared than the necromorphs.
Cyberpunk was sooo well optimized even with my ryzen 5 1600 and rtx 2060 6gb i was able to play it on high graphics on 60 fps
I hope number 10 was the best graphics on this list, because horizon FW & DLC visuals and graphics are for sure the most stunning on the list.
Jedi Survivor deserves a spot in this list
i feel like that is the 10th time i have heard a eagle say they don't like the avatar franchise but loves the game
Dude where is Metro Exodus Enhanced? wtf dude , its one of the best grfx games i have ever seen and it deserve a place there
Anyone know the name of the last bonus game he showed? Looks fun
Forbidden West is just unmatched, Burning Shores its insane but its a dlc so it doesnt really count, other than that, FF16 its the best if you consider the top of the top scenes, its just better, but there are some very mid moments through the game, for consistency itd be Avatar.
When graphics is topped enough, there comes a optimization problem
Technically, you can’t have both graphics and optimization into the top at the same time under nowadays technology
