| Valkyrie Profile 2 had some great graphics all thing considered. ![It's... it's beautiful. (AKA the videogame graphics appreciation society) - Page 4 Flglre_zps51d7a77e](https://2img.net/h/i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m534/Rau_Valeth/flglre_zps51d7a77e.jpg) I can't find any images that do justice to some of the more visually spectacular graphical moments like the special moves, so a close up of Hrist smirking will have to do. |

| Played a bit of Wind Waker HD on a friend's Wii U, I'm still not a fan of the new look, it's really inconsistent compared to the gorgeous cel shading in the original game. Whenever Link steps into shadow he has this curved rim lighting effect around him, which really looks out of place and almost as if he's not cel shaded at all (especially so whenever he opens a treasure chest). Do love the new shadows, but overall it has this inconsistent look which really bugs me. And the new textures look a bit off, as if they've been filtered out in the move to HD rather than redrawn. - masofdas wrote:

Someone wanted some VC, also there's a few more games I can thinking of that haven't been shown Rayman, Tales, Eternal Sonta for instance

Perhaps not the best idea in hindsight. |

| Well... what is it? Re: Alien Isolation - I am really amazed at how well they replicated the aesthetic of the film. I think it was either PC Gamer or Empire brought an Alien superfan to assess its authenticity, and he was properly impressed, which should stand as a testament to the game's graphical quality. In terms of prettiness that I've been playing, I'm really enjoying the leap in graphics from the original Binding of Isaac to BoI: Rebirth. In terms of lighting, effects, as well as - and this is personal preference over anything - the overall aesthetic of the game, it's really improved. Here's a comparison between the two: The original... ![It's... it's beautiful.

I love how in Rebirth you have the choice of smoothed effect or stick with the pixel-y goodness. |

Found the article: http://www.pcgamer.com/how-authentic-is-alien-isolation/ And as for Rebirth, I honestly prefer the pixels! It gives a bit more charm - the smoothed effect reminds me too much of its old Flash engine, which was janky as hell. |
