AoC has good photorealistic (so called western) graphics.
Aion has good manga "asian" graphics.
EVE has good "3D space" feel to it.

LoTRo has good environmental graphics but the character graphics are hideous
Aion is good, but to anime for my tastes

I would have to say Everquest 2 Graphics over all, the weapons, armor sets look amazing, dungeons to monsters are really well rendered.
You must be kidding me...
The faces looks like plastic and the hair looks like toothpaste.
The animations are jerky and the armor sets looks bad overall.
The best graphics right now?
Aion without a doubt but it's a grinder.
Then your computer must be a pile of crap, because the games graphics are amazing, and I don't recall hair looking like toothpaste LOL, unless your running older graphics. Upgrade your system try it out, and then come back and say if it's crap or not, each to their own. Yes I do agree Aions graphics are nice, from a anime point of view and if your into cartoons.
I think LotRO still rules for landscapes but would agree the basic player character models are sub par...however once you get some decent armor on them and cover those models up they are a lot better.Aion and AoC battle it out for player model details I would give the animations to Aion IMO.
Age of Conan is quite good overall though the stone structures feel odd and maybe a bit cardboardish for me. Still the overall visual quality might be the best. Old Tarantia is probably the best looking city in an MMO.
LOTRO has beautiful environmental graphics with nice colour schemes that lend its gameworld quite some immersive power. Though the character models are frankly horrible.
Aion has nice character models (and animation) and the masonry looks beautiful (which makes the capital cities look really good), but the natural environment is really crude in places... And I mean low-budget F2P crude.
Having implemented new planet visuals, EVE really looks quite good now. They'd already redesigned the ship models before. The visuals feel coherent, have a certain style and I think represents the mood of the overall EVE experience quite well.
The most impressive graphical engine at work in any MMO would be Cryengine2, utilized by Entropia Universe. The game is just not my kinda thing, but overall the graphics are remarkable - for an MMO.
Hmm, It's a shame that AoC curently has the best graphics out of all your point of views, I never really got into that game.. Guess it's not my kind of thing, I think the most notable MMORPG to lookout for graphics wise is TERA, from the videos seen at youtube the game looks amazing, also Entropia that uses cryengine2, but these are both upcomming MMOs.

Never played it but I would say Aion
However, I love the graphics of EVE

Alot of new games have come out but I still think it's a toss up between Conan and LOTRO.
Lotro has good high-fantasy graphics.
AoC has good photorealistic (so called western) graphics.
Aion has good manga "asian" graphics.
EVE has good "3D space" feel to it.
?
LOTRO and Age of Conan because of DirectX 10. But EvE comes in a close second. I would add TERA to the list but it's not out yet.
Age of Conan has the best graphics by far.
LoTRo has good environmental graphics but the character graphics are hideous
Aion is good, but to anime for my tastes

Age of Conan hands down has the best graphics of any MMO I've ever played.

I noticed your title says MMORPG, but post doesn't. So if not an MMORPG, then i'd go with DIRT 2.
Ditto

Age of Conan has the best looking graphics for me.
"Small minds talk about people, average minds talk about events, great minds talk about ideas."
AoC easily.
Aion IMO* considering it doesn't even feature DX10.
I have some good expectations for GW2 though, GW1 was my favorite game graphics-wise before Aion, and it will feature DX10 or maybe even 11.
* - Based on what my computer can run at acceptable frame rates, otherwise I'd say AoC or LOTRO. They're outdated though - DX11 is out already.
I don't get the Aion references. Other than the character models, which are nice, I find the the graphics in the game lackluster.
Age Of Conan, the main city was incredible to look at.

the game with the best graphics is clearly....
PONG!
its graphics are sooo advanced your system doesnt require mass upgrades to play it on max settings.
as well it doesnt cause any lag or streching across the screen.
and when you attack that little ball... you really attack it.. you dont get out of sync errors..
so honestly the game with the best graphics HAS TO BE PONG!! nothing beats pong unless its pong..
Entropia released the cryengine 2 upgrade a while ago mysti...

Fantasy graphics is AoC. LotRO do not compare, as well as the others. . .unless perhaps ive smoked something odd.
