Posted this (slightly edited) screenshot in another thread but thought it would fit in here quite nicely, too:

So, what do you guys feel gives the most realistic looking shots?

AeroFly FS?
DCS series?
FSX?
ROF?
SH 4/5?
Train Sim?
Xbox/PS3 HAWX, Gran Turismo
The first Crysis ( foliage and water on the island looked great with the settings turned up )

So far, they all look great, but my edge goes to the shots from AeroFly FS and ROF
HAWX and the SH 4/5 shots looked awesome too, so did the GT5 shots.
Any armor sims out there that look really good?

I guess they are all great since at one point in my life I thought this looked amazing...



BTW...I still do!!

Here are some of my favorites. I saw a few SH shots I'd include too, but I'd like to know which ones are straight from the game (even modded) but not retouched in PS.
I won't include my own.

Vienna, 2nd rock left.
The Ducati shot is from MotoGP08 and unedited. That title still has some of the most photorealistic shots I've ever seen.

This is one of my favorite threads too, lots of awesome shots and it's amazing sometimes how a quick pause and screenshot later turns out to look so great and then becomes a wallpaper for a long time, I also don't edit any of them in PS.

Same here..what you see is what is right out of the sim.

I would not even know where to begin when it comes to editing a picture.


People who think they know everything are very annoying to those of us who do.
