It deserves every bit of that 10 if you ask me.

Plus, if we're to argue against MLB '08: The Show, it is overly deep in saturation, has jaggies as well, and improper player models.

The fact that GTA is using Euphoria really brings this game up a notch as well. You can't get more fluid than natural motion.

I'm not seeing these jaggies in The Show.

I'm not seeing these jaggies in The Show.

Maybe the sharpness settings on the TV I played at were high, because I saw them clear as day.

They definitely don't have the same jaggies as GTA IV (my friend borrowed my copy and I saw them on his 40" Samsung), but when I play on my 23", everything looks very clean. I'm guessing it would be the same for The Show, then.

Hilary Goldstien and IGN are a joke. They use selective criteria to judge games in the ways they see fit. Personally I think GTA IV's graphics are great, particularly when you're taking the entire world into account. Yet when Hilary reviewed NBA2K8, he somehow didn't view the game's graphics using that same perspective. Unfortunately people think of IGN as a credible source for videogame information, when they shouldn't be

Running on 360 in 1080p and looks great! Ten all the way around. Overall detail to every aspect of the game, to the buildings, people, and cars and speech and mouth sync being very well done!

If the game didn't turn into black and white at random moments and the dark shadows didn't completely make the game unplayable in certain areas, then yeah I'd give it close to a 10 in graphics.

The only time it turns black and white is when you die.

it goes black and white when you die. Hardly random.

the darkness in this game is real bad for some tv's. I cant see **** on my tv, but I took this over to a friends house, and the default settings were fine. Just turn up the visual settings sliders in the options.

Nah, right before a rain storm for instance the colors get washed out to the point where the picture looks very bland and almost black and white. I wouldn't mind this but it can last in excess of 15 minutes and it just detracts from the overall experience of the game.

Adjust your display sliders. Night time looked too gray to me, so I adjusted my saturation and it looks good now.

Graphics look pretty good to me...

I have no complaints.

I think you need to readjust your TV display settings my friend... Rainy weather looks PERFECT on mine... there is a gray hue to everyone, and it looks gloomy, but certainly not black and white.

I get the random black and white graphics as well.
