So what game currently is Graphic King??

About a year ago I got a sweet gaming rig that can play Crysis on max settings. However, I'm looking for a game that is graphically demanding so I can see the true potential of my beastly system. Any advice would be more than welcomed. Thanks.

Imho, Crysis is beginning to show its age. With or without mods. BF3 will probably-most likely take that crown.

Metro 2033

Crysis, its always Crysis. Dont start babbling out all your fanboy love to games like Battlefield 3 when you dont even know the meaning of technical thingssuch astextures,ambient oclusion,global ilumination and a difference between simulated and static graphical properties. Most of you are probably fooled when a game like battelfield 3 having a very artisticly smart bloom and blur setup,plus a specific screen grey out. Still got to say from seeing the gameplay vids of battlefield 3, it looks like it is going to be a top notch decent game and making a big standout in comparison to other first person shooters this gen. But just still im having doubts about the frostbite 2 displaying as impressive things from what ive seen Cryengine 2 what is capable of.

You could just get some really badly optimized games if you want to check out your technical performance.

Textures: You kidding? this is DICE we are talking about they create some of the best textures around, go play mirror's edge.

Ambient Occlusion: Sure crysis wrote the book on SSAO but it has evolved past them, BC2 already had HBAO, something already higher quality than crysis's SSAO, and BF3 is focusing a good deal on DX11 i expect HDAO as well which put an even farther stance away from the original SSAO

Global Illumination: Crysis doesn't have a GI solution, however BF3 and frostbite 2 utilizes real time radosity lighting, so that point kinda backfired on you.

Static VS Dynamic: Frostbite 2 is one of the big guys for supporting dynamic assets, real time radosity lighting, improved destruction. It has some static assets sure, but so does rsis.

So poorer optimazation means fear wins? I guess siants row 2 is the undisputed graphics king then?

What game has better graphics then this? Cause crysis has aged like wine it looks better with age can't wait till i get gpu powerful enough to run it with 4x-8x super sampling AA at 1080p will look godly :D

Just Cause 2 is one of the most beautiful games around (although the character models aren't much to write home about). Flying over the sea at sunrise is jaw-droppingly gorgeous.

Other than Crysis, I'd say Mirrors Edge, Metro 2033, and Shattered Horizon show off PC's gaming capabilities imo. Also with future titles like Witcher 2 and Battlefield 3, I think we'll have a new king.

Shogun 2 is currently kicking my systems butt.

I might actually OC my CPU on this one just play it with all the bells and whistle run smoothly

This is why you use custom configs make the game looks better not sure what crytek was thinking with the values there using for various different commands at veryhigh settings i mean why is texture streaming on?

Its either going to be crysis 2 or shogun 2 when both get their dx 11 patches.

[QUOTE="mitu123"]

[QUOTE="Elann2008"] Yes it does. I go back to play Crysis just to look at stuff. I play it maxed out 1200p, all Enthusiast. You can definitely see that Crysis is "beginning" to age. Although, it still stands as one of the best-looking games of 2007 "and" compared to today's standards.Elann2008
