The recent Battlefield Bad Company 2 beta was a huge success in terms of player feedback and creating anticipation for the game’s upcoming release in March. However, the development team behind the game is still hard at work tweaking and upgrading every visual and gameplay element in order to deliver the best package possible to its fans on Day 1 of purchase.

It comes as no surprise that some are starting to feel that BFBC2 is reaching the quality level of Naughty Dog’s Game of the Year, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. According to producer Gordon Van Dyke though, no game can claim to have reached the graphical prowess that Uncharted 2 delivers and he explains why in a recent discussion with VideoGamer.com.

“I wouldn’t make that kind of claim,” he said. “Uncharted 2 is an amazing-looking game. But we’re reaching that level of quality. It’s going to be hard for any game to be able to make a claim that they look better. But we are getting to, I feel, that level, where it’s looking very impressive. When you see it – and I’ve heard other people say it as well, so it’s not just me – other people are saying it’s getting there.”

Despite the modesty, that hasn’t stopped Van Dyke from claiming dominance in the form of Vistas! The Vistas man!

“The thing is though, we have much bigger environments. To even be close, to me is quite an honour as a developer. The one thing I did was, when I looked at their game I was like, damn them! What have they done to the rest of us? I was looking for something where I could say, okay, that we’re doing better. I looked at their vistas, and I think that our vistas, because it’s in game, this is actual in-game terrain you could theoretically take your soldier and walk up to, our vistas are better. Naughty Dog, if you hear this, I challenge you versus our vistas!”
