First of all, if you have any understanding of development or at least read any articles on that process and made any sense of them, you know that multiplats will always look best on the lead platform.
SO you can't really use a multiplatform title to compare the systems. the 360 barely edges out the ps3 on most because the 360 is the lead title on most.
Basically its like making a square block to place in a square space. you designed it for that purpose so unless your designers are crappy or the tools are crappy it should fit pretty well. But then your taking that same square block and putting attachments on it and adjustments to make it fit into a completely different shape. Well it definitely isn't going to look as pretty since it was origingally designed to be a square. and its structure will not be as intact.
This is basically the problem with ports and Why alot of people HATE multiplat games, unless there is some extremely good development going on, one platform will suffer.
The best judge of a system then, is in its exclusives.
I think it is then valid to compare two flagship products that represent what would be the best of each system(halo odst, uncharted) and note that one doesn't quite have the visuals the other does.
It would take a severe fanboy not to admit that.... And then any logic thought would have to lend you to ask why? the development time for uncharted 2 was incredibly short. they just released uncharted 1 less than 2 years ago. So in a short period of time naughty dog presents something amazing, and Bungee kinda fell short in comparison.
Fortunately the fanbase is there for halo for reasons other than visuals though. This article is about what a system can do though, not how well it sells.
Couldn't agree more with these statements.

Mr patronizing speaks again. You haven't got a foot to stand on here as your comments are just a bunch of gobshite!
Mario, Metroid, FF must be a reflection of your generation because there's hardly anything innovative about them unless you were young enough that those were the first games you started playing so thought they were fresh.
Listen, don't judge someone by the games they play! I've been gaming for 20+ years and know a classic when i play one.
Your rant above just reeks of ignorance.
I agree that there is a lack of quality games this gen, compared to last. But i do/hope this gen will get better.
Innovative rules, provocative content, and unique experiences draw us to blogging about games like Far Cry 2 or BioShock.
Bioshock/Far Cry 2 were pretty far from Innovative. Bioshock is just System Shock 2, but the gaming media wanked themselves off when it came out, it was an OK game, but nothing special and by special i mean, Mario 64, Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, Super Metroid, Deus Ex, Final Fantasy VII, etc.
