25 Games That Will Push Graphical Boundaries In 2014

"The following list of upcoming games for 2014 is just for those of you folk who stop playing the game for a bit and go nuts over how ravishing those dust particles floating about in the sunlight streaming through the tiny crack in the dark room look while your character takes brutal blows from an Ogre’s cudgel, or how amazingly intricate the huge fissure on the mountain 700 feet away from you looks while you’re falling down to your death."

Uncharted 4 is the game that will dominate when it comes out, although the Witcher 3 looks to be a stunner

Studio-YaMi3761d ago (Edited 3761d ago )

I think Uncharted 4 will look stunning just by the looks of 1,2 & 3 on the PS3.

But most games that will push graphical boundaries will be PC games,that's a given.

gillri3761d ago

No I think Uncharted will beat anyhting on PC, considering Uncharted 2 matched anything on my PC at the time and PS4 is a new console

aksmashh3761d ago

It will interesting to see what settings (high/meduim) they will be able to achieve with consoles.

UFC is made by the fight night guys and there games last gen had amazing graphics!!!

Sieg3761d ago

@gillri

We don't know what the Naughty Dog engine would look like on PC that have been optimized. If Uncharted 2 matched everything on your PC, then it's time for an upgrade lad. No doubt the next uncharted will look great on PS4 but what's the setting? 1080p @ 30fps? If so it's a cake walk making a game look great at that res. Zoom the camera in, lower draw distance, 4x-8x AF, maybe 2x AA or no AA at all and the list goes on to make a game look great with a fixed resolution. How about release a tech demo for the masses?

avengers19783761d ago

Most the games that push the boundaries will actually come out on PS4, XB1, and PC... Some like infamous secondson, deep down, and uncharted( I think 2015 for this really) are only on PS4.
2014 is shaping up to be a pretty great year for gamers across the board.

Razputin3761d ago

Yea, I don't think so gillri. You probably had a $200 Gateway from Wal-Mart.

Crysis 3 on PC still looks better than a majority of games to date.

Higher resolution and more graphical prowess. PC will win.

Though I do have to say the new console visuals are nice and impressive. But, that will last a year or two at most.

A lot of elements of Uncharted look amazing, but they did nice tricks to hide how ugly it is at times. The character models alone seemed like it had 1 tone.

Cut scene to game play was a huge difference in visual effects.

But I know Uncharted 4 won't upset.

Patrick_pk443761d ago

@Sieg I think all PS4 exclusives will be 1080p 60fps, since these are the developers who know how to use the hardware better then your regular multiplat developer. Remember Naughty Dog always goes the extra mile

cannot imagine how it will look like

mo2413761d ago

lol you serious. as much as uncharted is a great franchise believe its not that big as fanboys make it out to be.

guyman3761d ago

Mo241: classic hater, bwaahaahaha suurgat

mo2413761d ago (Edited 3761d ago )

Guyman

don't get me wrong I really love uncharted, maybe it's just me, but it seems that uncharted is usually just known in the gamercrowd. It's something you really got to love or not at all.
I for one don't know if the witcher 3 will be better in the overall gamers opninion, but it sure will be in mine.

BallsEye3761d ago

Uncharted is a great adventure game and I had lot's of fun in it but once you go through the campaign it will collect dust. Devs did amazing job but honestly I think the recent tomb raider was better (IMO).

BallsEye3761d ago

Havent seen a single picture or even announcement and yet you claim it will dominate? Ahh the agrees...this site is getting more hilarious every day...I bet you'd even say that if uncharted 4 would have pac-man level of graphics.

dantesparda3761d ago

Why do you care? why is it bothering you so much? You seem upset by it? And why do you constantly complain about Sony fanboys but never against MS fanboys, when they are the same? And aint you a little old for this?

kingduqc3761d ago

I'm sure a console game running at 30fps 1080p look much better then a game running 60 fps 1600p right.

because console are magic.

mo2413761d ago

Yeah but we console gamers got the cloud.

Hicken3761d ago

If it looks like crap, it's gonna look like crap no matter the framerate or resolution.

I bet Halo 5 will crush every other game in gameplay and graphics

Studio-YaMi3761d ago (Edited 3761d ago )

Pffft...the Halo franchise isn't known for it's graphics .. PERIOD!

Besides,this isn't Bungie's Halo we are talking about here,so gameplay is something we'll have to see/try to judge.

PixelNinja3761d ago

Have you seem the in game graphics for Halo 4?
The fact that the ingame cutscenes are running in real time is incredible!

Props to 343i for making the best looking game on the 360.

yezz3761d ago

@PixelNinja

Never understood the hype with Halo and it's graphics. I have always considered Halos graphics to be average at most..

maddskull3761d ago

You ant know and halo shouldn't be in the list since we didn't see anything about it and also titanfall doesn't have great graphics some of the games on the ps3 and xbox 360 are better than titanfall. I think that uncharted will be better than most of these games.

76erz243761d ago

You couldn't have contradicted yourself any better lol. First you say we haven't seen Halo so we can't judge it then you say Uncharted will prob beat them all when we haven,t seen anything from that.

MasterCornholio3761d ago (Edited 3761d ago )

There's already a Halo killer coming out this year and its called Destiny.

Bungie are the only ones who can take Halo down.

Halo will still sell well and be enjoyable.

Dinkis3761d ago

Wtf are you talking about. They're not even the same kind of game . Halo killer pfft. And What's up with this talk of uncharted 4 when we have seen nothing of it. I'm not a hater of the ps4, my buddy has one and I like it,I just like the X1 better but lets talk about the games that have been announced

guyman3761d ago (Edited 3761d ago )

I agree

XabiDaChosenOne3761d ago

Gameplay is up for debate, Graphics? Not running on the Xbone it won't

abzdine3761d ago

since when did halo look good?

SoulSercher6203761d ago

That is one of the dumbest statements I've ever read.

HammerKong3761d ago

i think uncharted ,quantum break ,order 1886,wither 3 ,the devision and obviosly halo 5 will show true next gen graphics and may be project cars for racing games and fable legends for MMOS because it will be first game to be working on unreal engiene 4 which is a true next gen engiene and will show mindblowing graphics like gears of war 1 shows of ue3,
but so for i think quantum break was having the best graphics in its trailer which was all in game footage and order was best at 2nd.

mo2413761d ago

Halo isn't really known for graphics as in technical stuff, but the art designs is what makes it beautifull.

HammerKong3760d ago

sorry mo ,remember halo 4 it was the most buetiful game till 2012 ,not only becasue of artstyle but also due to detailing and character movements and mindblowing facial expressions and fantastic character models,it was only the game at last gen which used latest mocap technology which was used in transformers ,avengers and many big movies and then ryse son of rome is the only game to use latest mocaps which was used in hobbit ,even killzone which is amindblowing looking game was also not using the technology.

iceman13463761d ago

titanfall ???!!llololololololololololl

Studio-YaMi3761d ago

Yeah seriously I didn't think Titanfall looked any better than Call of Duty graphics-wise and gameplay-wise.

Even from the leaked alpha footage,I thought I was watching a COD game till I saw him double jumping.

The game will be fun I'm sure,but it's not something we haven't seen already in the graphics department.

ricochetmg3761d ago

I agree but the amount of activity is amazing.

MasterCornholio3761d ago

I don't think it looks great either but I'm sure the game will be fun on all three platforms.

pyramidshead3761d ago

It does look dubiously placed lol. Almost synthetically so. Glad I'm not the only one who raised their eyebrow when they found it so high up.

Sieg3761d ago

lol no. Titanfall is using the heavily modified Source engine that is not pushing any boundaries.

nypifisel3760d ago

It must be a joke. Titanfall looks like crap.

bessy673761d ago

This list is so bad. Titanfall at #2 but Quantum Break at #17? Yikes.

Salooh3761d ago

This is insane , how can a person be that blind. Titanfall gonna be soo much fun in gameplay side and it will definitely surpass call of duty but it looks awful for last generation game let a lone a next gen one ..

Wait. I don't get it. I reported on something that I recently noticed. I did mention in my article that I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't gone to play The Division 2. That said, if this was nearly a week ago, I wouldn't know, as NO ONE REPORTED ON IT! Not IGN. Not Gamespot. Not Kotaku. No one.

You got people here complaining that there are any real gaming journalists and game journalism sucks, but when someone is acting, doing something to make something known to the public about what a company is doing. What do you do? You poke fun at it. What is it that people want? Do you want to complain for the sake of it? Or do you actually want people to do something to make those who aren't in the know aware of the shady stuff that's happening and to sound the alarm?

ravens5224d ago

It's the "oh well" setting in on digital users. They don't care they don't own their stuff for some odd reason. 🤷🏽.

FullmetalRoyale24d ago

Good for you! People sometimes just feel the need to show how little they actually have to say. Very respectful dressing down, btw, which is another thing we need more of.

fan_of_gaming24d ago

I appreciate your article,
- "If this isn’t considered both a “WTF” moment and setting a dangerous precedent, I don’t know what else it would be"
- "it could also signal other publishers that removing games from our accounts would be okay"
- "Maybe those firmly against this digital future have a point after all"
- "This. Is. Fucked. Up."

As someone against an only-digital/streaming future for entertainment content (movies/TV shows/games/books), it feels like talking into a void about the points above on this website, or on Twitter, or with my friends, etc. People don't get it. I'm strongly contemplating whether this will be my last generation of PlayStation & Xbox consoles (I'm confident enough that Nintendo's next system will still support physical media and that their 1st-party games won't have online-required installation or usage restrictions).

Chocoburger24d ago

He is one of the long running trolls of this site, he never says anything positive. Every single one of his posts are either incorrect or flat out stupid. Pay him no mind.

Welcome to the era where you no longer own your games.

I'm so done with Ubisoft, removing games one paid for is a new low...
Bye Ubisoft,
You've done f#c*ed it up !

Chocoburger24d ago

This was me 9 years ago, when I realized all they wanted to make were filler boring games that are packed with micro-trash-actions.

Snooze! Moving on from Ubi-junk!

vTuro2424d ago

I see they're trying their best to surpass Activision Blizzard for being the most hated gaming company. Keep at it, Ubisoft, I believe!

How Does inFAMOUS Second Son Hold up 10 Years Later?

inFAMOUS Second Son was one of PS4's best exclusives, but does it hold up a decade later?

Deeeeznuuuts115d ago

100%, locked 60fps and still look great all these years later, same with the expansion, definitely worth a look if people haven't played it yet, not the best games ever made but a good experience, hopefully a new infamous gets released

KwietStorm_BLM115d ago

Never was my favorite infamous, but it was definitely a graphics showcase early on PS4. Still plays well with the unlocked frame rate.

SDuck115d ago

Still remember getting hyped about this game nearing release. Funny because I never even got a PS4. Jumped from PS3 to PC so I never played it ahahaha

OmegaSoldati114d ago

Its a good game. But thats it. Congratulations you made the best choice. I dream to have a great PC one day.

Profchaos115d ago (Edited 115d ago )

Graphically It's a absolutely stunning game that still holds up today.

Didn't have all that much depth to it forcing you to play though twice for a platinum trophy a good and bad run it was a little disappointing how similar those were Delsin would be like I'm not doing that for you in a cutscene but the cutscene would play out and force you to do it anyway just as you would of in a good run

I did like the story however it got a lot of complaints back in the day people hated playing as Delsin instead of cole despite Coles story being wrapped up.

Overall though the map wasn't overly saturated with useless points of interest there was some collectibles and things to find but nothing compared to a Ubisoft game.

I think it was a good game if a little hollow I've played it through around 4 times now since it's so short.

Also it's DLC was great a full story expansion

I've played 15, and I wouldn't consider any of those underrated TBH. Some of them are pretty high rated.

banger88147d ago

That's amazing, Gamingbolt actually put all 15 games on the same page.

shinoff2183145d ago

I. Not seeing anything on that list underrated. I never played concrete genie, the ASTRO vr,and one other but I forgot the name already. Nothing on there was underrated at all imo.

persona4chie145d ago

There’s only 4 of those games I never played, and no most of those aren’t underrated.
