You do realize that what you see there is in Japan and does not fit the time of day at all? I say CoD is pretty spot on when I look out over the sea on a hot summer day.

well photorealistic paintings most times are worth nothing, its the artistic paintings which often are invaluable

now games are an art, why is it not like painting and be something artistic instead of boring ultra realism

i dont want realistic clouds, i see them all the time

now dogfighting at dusk on an artistic pink sky

oh boy that would be cool

I love clouds. Unicorns and glider to!!

Actually, I wouldn't mind a game that let my fly through scenery from art. Imagine skirting the spires of a Martinesque castles, frolic in the Arcadian sky in an O'Connor painting, or enjoy a flight in the dramatic light German Romanticism!







Or what about following the river across dramatic waterfalls or struggle to find a place to put down your kite in front of the brownish hues of Thomas Cole storm:
