I know I know before I get flamed by my PC gamers, I own both games, and to everyone their opinion, I can crack enthusiast settings on Warhead but it stutters but it truly is a sight to behold, and it does blow UC2 out of the water, but its practically a slideshow, as my 9600GSO sli cant really handle it, anything under high settings looks like crap, you can get decent settings out of medium with shaders on high, but its nothing really great. UC2 is just so colorful and it works really in its advantage, also playing it on a 42 inch tv instead of a monitor helps, I do admit one thing that UC2 does match Crysis is water, at some spots when its raining and the rain is hitting the ground and the lighting on that water matches Crysis levels, by no means is this post comparing Crysis with UC2, its not comparable, just my two cents.

i think naughty dog was smarter about how to make the game look good. The right lighting choices, and colours can work wonders.

I prefer UC2's character models more than Crysis. Crysis is an overall better looking game, but there are parts in UC2 that made me say "Crysis who!?"

Crysis Is Much better Than Uncharted 2 In Terms Of Graphics. Probably your RIG can't handle Crysis hence your saying is Uncharted 2 is better than Crysis.

Yeh, not only does Crysis look better, but without Crytek's SSAO technique Uncharted 2 wouldn't have looked as good.

If you don't have a PC that is capable enough to run Crysis at the higher settings (and at a nice rate) then yeah U2 will look better. Just as if you run Crysis at 640x480 on all low then there are bad looking games from last gen that could be comparable. . But if you want to compare two titles, you compare them on the best they are capable off. As in U2 is not being played on a tv that belongs to your century old grandfather but on a nice big hdtv...And Crysis is compared not on lower settings but no the high ones...

It's no less original than Uncharted's 'cartoonish'realism. Look at levels like The Core, and Frozen Paradise.

This might not make sense but crysis beats UC2 in graphic detail but UC2 beats crysis in fine detail.

You can actually see the wholes in the fabric of Drakes shirt when it's wet.

That's like comparing GTA IV graphics to Need For Speed. Despite the fact that Crysis is a sandbox while UC2 is not, which strains Crysis engine, Crysis still looks better.

I think Uncharted 2 generally has better artwork, although a lot of the artwork in Crysis is still very good. It's also nice to have a game that has a steady framerate, which is something you almost never get with Crysis.

Funny how PC gamers get all mad when they compare a console game to crysis. Cryisis fails, it uses better techonology and resources and still Uncharted 2 is at same level and IMO even better. Just imagine what naughty dog could do if they made a game that uses crysis high settings. I still dont know why people care about crysis, if it werent for the graphics, it would be a 6 score game or so. Uncharted beats in it in almost if not everything.

Care to explain why it would get a 6 rating? Cause Jason Ocampo explains right here why it got a 9.5,

"If you put it all together, Crysis is just remarkable. This is a game that pushes the envelope in terms of both technology and gameplay and does so with aplomb. Crysis raises the expectations for every shooter to follow when it comes to graphics, interactivity, environments, immersiveness, AI, and gameplay. Quite simply, Crysis represents the first-person shooter at its finest, most evolved form."

Yeh, he just goes on and on about the graphics, doesn't mention the gameplay at all. : \

I would like to bring up the point someone made previously; that Crysis is a Sandbox game while to my understanding UC2 is not. This would mean Crysis has to process many more things and putting "fine" details into the game would just burden the customers PC even further. Also art style has alot to do if you like the visuals of a game; if you like the colourful art style of UC2 it's hard to convince yourself that Crysis is better. Correct me if I'm wrong ...

On a technical level Crysis has higher res textures and models but from an all around point of view Uncharted 2 looks better. Uncharted 2 trumps Crysis it art style, atmosphere, and design.

So true, Crysis even when I run it with medium settings @ 60fps it sometimes slows down a bit, maybe because the engine is old or the game has a wide scale.

Are you kidding me? Seriously? 60 FPS isn't the goal with crysis, 25 is, crysis uses an SSAO and motion blur technique, so YOU DON'T NEED TO BE AT 60 FPS TO BE SMOOTH.

1. UC2 is no where near the same level graphically that crysis is, not at all, not in lighting, not in textures, not in object quality, not anything. then factor in the fact that you could probably fit the entire game of UC2 in one level of crysis and UC2 graphically in comparison is like a ps2 game.

2.its not a matter of your opinion. graphics are objective.

3.idk why people care maybe because its a great FPS? at least i can actually replay it and its still fun. theres only so many times you can replay the same sequence on the train before it gets boring. not that this has anything to do with graphics.

so try again

Uncharted 2 is much more polished than Crysis. It's more detailed and overall the better game. But I understand the denial of PC gamers. Crysis is the only game they got, so of course they get all defensive.PoisonLenny

or maybe youve never actually played crysis.

I'm pretty sure that the PS3 lacks the raw power neccesary to run a game like Crysis, although UC2 looks like a feat of optimization for how good it looks/run on the ps3.

Evidence of my initial statement is how awful the cryengine 3 looks on the PS3.

I like the art sytle more. Crysis is just on the verge of being realistic. while Crysis is most definantly superior in the graphics department i still prefer the look in Uncharted 2.
