The only downside with U3 (graphically) was the changed character models, Chloe and Elena looked half-asian, their faces had a lot less "features" than in U2.
Uncharted 3

I could to understand for a lot of a different games, but use unchy 3 to claim how ancient is the ps3 hardware, well sound quite bizarre 
I think procedural shader like unchy series hardly appears even in a super high end pc games... probably too much people judge how graphic AA filter or the simple picture sharpness in my opinion... quite funny because at the same time I have played COD : BO on my pc & the demo on the ps3, & I was surprise how close appears although the evident limits of the older ps3 hardware... except of course for the flame effects, in the long distance on the ps3 are atrocious...

It's probably just me, but whenever Uncharted is being referred to as Unchy, I get the urge to do some truly vile and dreadful things to the people around me.

If you've only played the game up to that Jaguar scene (which is not even beyond chapter 3 if I recall correctly), you really haven't seen a lot of the game. In truth, the game starts rather okay-ish from a graphics point of view and reaches epic-levels pretty much towards 2/3rds into the game.
There's also a point, that just about *any* game - regardless how impressive or on which platform will have inperfections or underwhelming scenes or points within the game at some point. There's also a point to be made that Uncharted unlike many other games use in-game rendered cinematics where the focus is a seamingless experience and the focus on the characters and the dialog / facial expressions themselves, rather than what is in the surroundings at that point. That Jaguar scene is probably just a minor hickup in an otherwise very polished, solid and graphically very strong game.
Once you play on, you will see what does make Uncharted one of the most impressive games this generation: Great graphics, smooth gameplay while a lot of physics and chaotic blockbuster material goes on (not going to name any examples due to spoilers). You'll just have to keep on playing.
Which scene are we talking about when we say the Alley and the Jaguar?
evereything from chapter 11 is another level above the rest of the game you have seen.
I thought that scene looked rather fantastic.
It's great art with ND's tech to back it up. Besides the sense of depth, I also Prophecy2k

Lol, sounds very much like suryad has been the victim of another internet hype train that musters internal hype levels and expectation for a game to "out-of-this-world" levels.
It's always best to temper what you expect from a very hyped and universally lauded game before you play it. Not only will you be able to appreciate the game better, you'll most importantly be able to have more fun with it ;-)
I was very nearly a victim of the same with Skyrim "NEW ENGINZ" & "OMGWTFBBQ AWEZMZ GRAFIXXX!!!!111" hype pre-release on NeoGaf. After realising myself long beforehand that the game graphically was not even close to top tier as it was being made out to be, I was able to temper my expectations. Thus, i'm playing it now, think it looks excellent for an ES game, and i'm absolutely having a blast

OT exhaust the first hours of enthusiam, I have found skyrim the less appealing of the whole elder scrolls series... I can't explain why but I can't 'catch' the same poetry or esoteric feeling proved in the past.

I usually delay playing the game for a month to dampen the crazy hype inside me. Seems to work for me ! I played U3 on launch though and I was going crazy in the house telling everyone to come and look at it !

Just restartet the sp: hm, as I said in an other thread...IQ compared to U2 got a massive downgrade, comparable to KZ3 and KZ2.
I just played the first chapter, where you walk around the sun lit city: everywhere extreme shimmering, crawling edges and a very unsteady noisy image overall...puts the whole experience down (same for me when playong KZ3).

I will double check that...but I am really sceptic that this is my tvs fault. Is there a difference if my ps3 is set to 720 or 1080 p???
UC2 had 2*MSAA which was borked by the HDR.
Yes.
