Best Graphics? Because I'm tired of hearing 'bout Crysis!

You obviously have never played a game at actual HD resolution ;)

Oh, and try playing Crysis on Very High graphics, then talk to me, no other game even comes close.

I love how you peeps put words in my mouth or assume something lmao! Why can't you understand I don't think it's the best graphics! Good? Yes! Not everything was smooth it was blocky! Especially some characters! Some of it was very well done but not all! It looked above average to me! Not King!

Well than, guess what game right now holds the crown? You got it, Crysis.

Then quit talking about wanting proof, when the proof is there and you do nothing but deny it, if you can't see Crysis has the best Technical Graphics there is no hope for you.

Thats not an opinion, thats a fact, Crysis won the 2007 Graphics Award, it still holds the crown until the 2008 Awards. (From your logic)

[QUOTE="mo0ksi"]

And Gametrailers are really against PC for some reason. They didn't give Crysis graphics GOTY because they said you need a $5000 PC to run it. They've tried pulled off a lot of crap and got caught.

jasonheyman

Now why would a place like Gametrailers be so against PC gaming??? Really?? I'm not saying you are a liar or being ignorant! I just don't see that! They have a cable show as well on spike I believe on friday nights. Why would feel the need to do that??

They dont understand the platform or the games, or so it seems....

Crysis has the best graphics no doubt,anybody who says otherwise never played crysis or never touched a PC in their life, it may not be the best FPS out there but still i enjoyed it a lot :D

GT can suck some times, for no reason, see the crysis graphics thing as a example and a 9.3 mark at MGS4's story :P

2. Well thats your opinion. Lovely. Fact is the game is the most graphically prowess game, and visual monstrosity this generation.

If you dont think its 'the king' fine. Doesent stop it from being just that.

I find TF2s visuals more appealing, however that doesn't stop Crysis from being far better.

If memory serves me correct they gave Halo 3 a higher score for story.

Idiotic.

Quite frankly I think the premises of having 'story' as a sub rating system is idiotic anyway.

Did you guys not watch the video I put a link up for??? I agreed that it was probably showin in low not high but the characters are blocky! Watch it you'll see it!!jasonheyman

What do you want, accolades for stating the obvious?

You don't understand anything about PC's, the Higher Setting PC games are put in, upscales the textures in the game, not to mention higher resolutions decrease Aliasing. Hence why Crysis on High resolutions doesn't need AA.

Yeah they gave halo a 9.6 for the story...weird..

Well if its going to be on low visuals of course it is.

Yes but if you go back in this thread a handful admitted to the blockyness and one person admitted about blood splatter and damage to other characters lacking in visuals!!

It upscales textures and some details yes! Being blocky has to do with software compaines programmers extra! You can't play Mario 64 on high and take away mario's block head!!

1. PC doesn't upscale, you can run at different native resolutions. 1920x1200 = 1920x1200 natively, not upscaled 1280x720.

2. The Mario 64 argument is a complete straw man, we've moved beyond 2d sprites ;)

No, you really don't understand, Consoles do not upscale in the manner PC's do, when PC game is set to "High Graphical Detail", all the textuers in the game are upscaled, IE, the textures show more detail than compared to "Low" setting, and again, Higher Resolutions decrease Aliasing, which is BIG.

I have Crysis man, and I play it on Very High, its insane, the best Technical Graphics out there.

We're not talking about upscaling resolutions, were talking about upscaling textures, every resolution setting you put a PC game on is Native.

Ok so Far Cry 2 on High will add more detail even if it's blocky on counceles? Like it's a completley different game??

:shock:

Maybe more depth and sharper images!

Erm...you can do that to every PC game released in the past 15 years :P

And to take it even further, you can download mods that enhance graphics further.

Edit: Forgot to mention : Antialiasing / Aniostropic Filtering...two things I can't live without! :P

Yes it does, Higher Resolutions on PC's decreases Aliasing, thats why Crysis on High Resoltuions doesn't need AA.

EDIT: Your Mario 64 arguement is flawed because its a console game, it has set Graphic settings.

No, you don't understand, the programmers have to make games that way because not everyone can run a PC game on every setting, PC's do not have a set standard.

EDIT: And yes, you can download texture packs and such to increase a PC games detail.

No, not beyond what the programmers intended, obviously. But it can look much better than the console version.

Try playing GeOW at 1920x1200 with 4xAA/16xAF at a constant 60fps. Even that is nothing compared to Crysis :P

Now I can agree with that! Well the Gear of War thing I don't know with Gears 2 with all the new palates and textures you might be surpised if you ran that on high! It looks good on 360 if you ask me! If you amped it up it would be pretty sweet I bet!

Of course GeOW2 would look sweet.

But its still laughable compared to Crysis :P I'm serious...and to make it better, all those gorgeous graphics with so much freedom!

I am not putting down "PC Gaming", This was about a game that I did play that I thought for it's title should have looked better! What is so wrong with that??

Gears of War 2

Crysis Warhead..

^^... Oh dear ...To be honest, a fair comparison would be Crysis warhead running at Full (Enthusiast settings, above 1080p). Seeing as the consoles are running at full steam whilst displaying those shots, don't get me wrong they do look good, but really! what doesn't look half decent these days :/ Saying that; there is good looking, but then there is phenomenal. And sadly the consoles will not produce visuals that are 'phenomenal' as they currently lack the horsepower to produce such visuals.

Anyway, a proper screenshot of Crysis warhead, where it is actually rendering something (reference to the shot you gave, being of a couple of crates and frozen korean):

Cant you send links to pics instead of taking up whole pages of non in game graphics anyway!jasonheyman

Do i really need to post Jpegs of characters in the game? They are the most realistic in any video game - be it grunts or main characters.

As I said the game may have its faults - even if they are increadably subjective.

It doesent stop it from being the graphically superiour game by a large margin at all.

As for other screens:

They are bullshots. Enhanced images, that obviously look prettier than what the game will look like in your machine.. Surprised? Why should you be - they are promotional shots for games that have not come out yet. The only plausible one is Far Cry 2 as we know computers have the ability to handle such high levels of AA + settings ect.

truth is, crysis is the bestshadow_hosi
