Sorry, i use 4x AA on all my pc games and theres no poor soft look to them.

Even on same games like COD2, there is just something about how 360 renders things that gives it a unbearable soft look.

There is no 'soft look' to CoD2.  I agree there is with oblivion, though.  The 'soft look' does not look bad, just different.  I do wish there were a way to turn it off/on  (and i still believe it's the 2xAA).

YOu are a hard one to please.

AA has nothing to do with the soft look in some games. Its the lack of AF Anisotropic filtering used in games such as oblivion and COD2. There is little to no difference in quality when compairing the 360s and PC version of oblivion until you turn up the af on the PC.

I actually love the "soft" look. ph34r.gif  I have always hated the non-soft look that pc games have, and I prefer an xbox 360 over a top pc. Maybe I'm nuts   unsure.gif

Well true for distant textures, but not for upclose textures.  So that doesn't explain everything.  AA still blurs and softens the edges of textures.  So it's looks like a combination of both AA, and no AF.

pc's have more lines/pixels thus those pixels are smaller and the post effects need not hide it so much.

This doesn't matter if both the 360 and pc are being played on the same display at the same resolution.  Both will have the same lines/pixels.

Perfect dark always looked like ass. Personally I don't think that the PD screenshots looked good at any point.

In addition people that have played the game behind closed doors have stated that the graphics are good and are an accurate representation of the videos that have been released to the general public.
