If only DW graphics were this good:

The Sea is nice but I think the FFG in DW is as good.

that water might be marginally better than DW's, but DW definitely has the superior FFG.

Hmmm. I actually think DW's water, sky, and ship model effects are much better than this. I don't really think this is better than DW's graphics in any way. Just one man's honest opinion.

I agree that the sky, and ship model are much better in Dangerous Waters but the water oh no.
The highest setting which uses pixel shaders is not realistic by a long shot, that is why I prefer to set it one notch under.
Without the pixel shaders, the water effects are more convincing in DW.

Well, to be fair, I'm only judging by this screenshot and a couple of others. And to me, DW's Water textures look better from what I've seen. Maybe I would think differently if I ever fired up VS and saw what it looks like on the PC. BTW, I think the work people are doing on VS is just amazing.

But I'm just not sure that I agree that this beats out DW's graphics. I guess I'll leave it to you guys who know more about both and have seen them in action.

And I'll try using the water without pixel shaders and see what results I get. Thanks for the suggestion.
