Graphically Earth 2160 is top notch, if you have invested in a high end PC Earth 2160 is an absolute delight to behold. Apparently, the game's engine utilizes shader model 3.0, while I wouldn't know much about that, I do know is that this is one great looking game. Quite frankly my fairly low detail screenshots don't really do it justice. Don't be too disheartened though if you have a low end spec PC as it's still very detailed and you still get the same great sharp textures and lighting effects, in fact hats off to Zuxxez as even on the lowest setting the game looks great.
