Best looking 6th gen console game?

[TheKanga]

Which game do guys this had the best visuals of this gen?
This gen is Dreamcast, Gamecube, PS2 & Xbox btw.
I ask about this gen as it was pre-HD yet some games still looked great.

Here's a few that come to mind.

Resi Evil 4 on Gamecube

Valkyria Profile 2: Silmeria on PS2

Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory on Xbox

REmake

GT (3 or 4, can't remember which) looked pretty damn good from memory.

Final fantasy 12

Games not mentioned but deserve a shout.

MGS2, MGS3, Jak II, Jak 3, Super Mario Sunshine, Zelda:Windwaker & Okami were all stunning games.

My two choices would be:

Ninja Gaiden Black (Xbox)
Conker: Live & Reloaded (Xbox)

The first game, in particular, looks amazing in motion. Though purely in pictures Conker is probably superior.

Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory (Xbox) is another that still looks great. I replayed it last year and it still looks great.

Rogue Squadron 2 on Gamecube would be right up there.

I remember playing it the first day i got the Gamecube and was blown away.

Art style has a big part in games aging well, so a lot of the Nintendo 'cutesy' games naturally hold up a lot better.

I remember being pretty impressed with Black (?). Think it was PS2/Xbox.

Black was a great looking game at the time, highly destructible at the time as well. Made by Criterion who made the Burnout games (Burnout 3 another contender here)

Ah yep, makes sense. Burnout definitely a worthy mention.

Criterion made the popular 3rd party engine Renderware which was used to make all kinds of games. But given that they made it themselves, they were the best at extracting the best out of it.
