Is this real life? Compare Uncharted 1 which a talented studio said they pushed the platform to develop and then a few years later with Uncharted 3. Uncharted 3 looks miles better and does a lot more than the first entry. With consoles, optimization is everything.

Exactly. And Naughty Dog has the fricking Sony ICE team in their damn office. And they still found a ton of room to improve.

The ICE team is essentially the baddest group of graphics coders Sony can hire, with the express purpose of helping devs make PS3 games look as good as possible.

So? I could remake Mario Brothers on a pc that would blow your mind. Just because a game did a poor job utilizing the available tools means nothing.

Clearly, seeing as how the hardware is not upgradeable.
