the more I play the more I don't get the hate on the graphics...the gameworld as a whole looks stunning...the lighting in particular...beautifully rendered city of Chicago...low res textures are there but overall this an amazing looking open world game...
it has its moments but i wouldn't call it amazing, more like what games should've looked like post-crysis 1. i think a lot of the problem is that the game largely takes place in the city. pawnee is great looking. i love that area so much.
