Crysis 2 Digital Foundry Comparison

[QUOTE="Snugenz"]

[QUOTE="TintedEyes"]At this point it just seems like some people cant accept not everyone thinks Crysis 2 is the best on consolesTintedEyes

Some people cant accept that anyone thinks C2 is the best on consoles. Its a useless debate.

Here you go again ... :roll:, show me where i said you did in my post?

While frame rate can be nuts DF definitely picked 2-3 instances where it goes "down under" :) Like,first mission is definitely bad and that tank incounter.Other than that its REALLY good,even DF said it.But couple of missions are a bit unoptimized.

Have you watched this? :D

That's sequence is insane. When you posted that last time I actually ran and got my wife so she could see how awesome C2 is. I talk about it all the time, but she's cool and actually thinks it's an awesome game.

Don't get me wrong about saying it's not on par. When I say that, I mean barely. The ONLY weakness I've seen is the framerate. The lighting is superior to Uc2 and KZ3, and in my opinion the levels are more impressive in design. Basically it's a lack of time/polish due to it's multiplat nature.

If somebody said they believe it to be the best on consoles, I'd have no problem with that statement. However, Gears 3 is gonna own C2 bad when it comes to polish and overall looks. Get some!

I can ask you the same thing, what about those Crysis 2 pics that blow PS3 exclusives out the water? UC2 has more polygons, FACT, itsHD and Crysis 2 isn't, FACT, It has higher AA, FACT, therefore it has better technical graphics whether you like it or not. You're entitled to your opinion though. Go on and keep acting like Crysis 2 is a 360 exclusive. Must be nice to have a multiplat game as theposter boy for a system. I'm done arguing with you because you are just going to keep finding excuses.

Who says it has more polygons?You can actually guess number of polygons in game?Wow...great!What UC2 has better is AA and is bit higher res than 360 Crysis 2.It sucks in AF department though and PS3 version actually has twice and sometimes three times that amount.Lighting and shadows all dynamic,not in UC2,real time global illumination,not in UC2.Both have fantastic post processing though its just that Crysis 2 uses actual bokeh effect rather than dof(which UC2 has best).Anyway,it was nice to speak to you :) Its been two days since you are cowering latest threads to downplay Crysis 2 visuals without even playing it,even going so far telling people that AW looks better.Game that you have never played and is in SD teritorry looks better than arguably best looking game on any platform?Yea right...

Uncharted 2 had even more polygons then Crysis 1, but PC processing makes it look better than Uncharted 2. However Crysis 2 looks inferior to Crysis 1, especially the console version, which isn't HD, has lower polygons, and worse effects. Therefore we can conclude that UC2>>Crysis 2 console version.GAME.SET.MATCH.

Did you just say Crysis 2 has worst effects than UC2? :lol: Does UC2 even have battle dust? Crysis 2s volumetric effects are the best seen on a console.

[QUOTE="1Stark1"]

Corridor Sony games? Yeah, I'm done discussing this with you. You're too much of a PS3 hater to take seriously:lol: I show a GIF that blows out all those Crysis 2 pics and all you can say is you can't swim in it, yeah ok. When you actually play the game, you'll realize it doesn't look that great. You can spend all this time on the forum convincing yourself you think otherwise though. Have fun with the game, i know I will when I get off work.:)

1Stark1

And UC2 and KZ3 are not corridor games?They are as corridor as it gets...

You are boring mate.Whats about that gif that blows Crysis 2 away?What?

It would be smart for you to look at this 30 sec movie and edit your stupid post :) (real time) ;)

LOL?????Crysis 1 on PC went as high as 4 mil per frame!4 million per frame.Thats like...what?4 times higher than UC2 peak? :lol: But modded one peaked at 11 million if I remember correctly.

Worse effects?Crysis 2 has best lighting in bizz,some of the best post processing effects with KZ2 and GOW III and arguably best water.Its all packed in pretty open and unristricting game.

But I'll tell you what,Im finishing with you.You seem to be very hurt by fact that Crysis 2 looks so good,therefore I give up and we can concude that you are psyhiatric case from what you shown SW in last 2-3 days :)

[QUOTE="TintedEyes"][QUOTE="Deadbeatcobra"] The majority of review sites say so in some way or form that it is, plus digital foundary just confirms it's the best on consoles right now.

1Stark1

Trust me Tinted not many lol, Lems are just taking a few comments and are trying to run away with it lol.

They dont have to call it "CGK". That term is synonymous in system wars to make consolites feel better about their outdated consoles.

Most reviews state how impressive it is and at the same time pushes the boundaries of graphical fidelity (at the cost of some performance hit). Some compared it to uncharted some to killzone, but most of them compared it to the original crysis, and how well it held up on consoles. The people who disagree are in the minority.

i've also made a list with the most populer review sites stating just that what i said above also with the negative ones. though its lost somewhere in that 500 page thread, feel free to look it up yourself

[QUOTE="Nolakk"][QUOTE="1Stark1"]

Please leave this thread. I feel myself loosing brain cells reading your posts. If you're playing in 3D, PS3 is the way to go. If you're playing in 2D, 360 is the way to go. They gave 360 the overall win though, but it doesn't stop people from having their preferences. The same way Gamespot said KZ3 and UC2 looks better than Crysis 2, but pepole still have their preferences. Stop being so thrirsty to claim ownage off a multiplat when Alan Wake, a 360 exclusive, looks better than this.

LucidJubilation

i'm starting to think they're the same person, as they seem to be the only ones getting upset and calling everyone a fanboy for stating that DF gave the win to 360.

1Stark1

How many is enough?

BTW, how many sites say KZ3? Or UC2? Or GOW3?

I'll wait while you count.

Regardless, the macro point is that 360 can produce visuals on par with the best PS3 exclusives. Ultimately, this is the point that you are trying so heavily to DC by any means possible.

Go back and read the Uncharted 2 reviews, I'm not going to go back and count something to you because you're too lazy to check for yourself.

The hypocrisy is strong in you. You don't know how many sites stated KZ3 or UC2 or GOW3 was the best looking game on consoles. And you don't know how many said that about Crysis 2. Yet you attempt to denigrate the obvious success that Crytek has had with the visuals of Crysis2.

On top of that, you avoided the main point of my post.

The 360 can produce the same quality of visuals as the PS3. Crysis2 is proof of that. I am sure that cuts deep for you. For everyone else it is just further evidence that both machines are comparable performance wise.

Also, no one has yet answered my question of where the article claims the 360 version wins in the comparison, or where the verdicts can be found on the site for that matter.

Pug-Nasty

From what I gathered, this is a GTAIV-type scenario. They're almost exactly the same. Trade-offs are there for sure, but it's the same. Even Cevat said long ago they are the same.

Really dude? You're gonna use that? Have a looksy at DF's RE5 analysis.

"Each frame is comprised of between three and four million polygons, meaning a peak throughput of an astonishing 120m polygons per second. What's more, those stats date back to 2006, meaning there's every chance that Capcom has since improved and refined upon the technology."

[QUOTE="T-razor1"]

[QUOTE="TintedEyes"] how many sites call it the best looking game on consoles?TintedEyes

Honestly in all seriousness right now have you played Crysis 2?

...and if not do you plan to?

I only ask because you really need to at least experience it first hand. If after you play it and you continue in your position then well hey that's just the way you see it even though I'd still think you would be crazy to think the game is not pumping out some sick visuals for a console game.

I never siad its visuals werent nice, and i only asked how many sites called it that, because he makes it seems like its a lot

I don't know what your definition of "a lot is" but for me this qualifies:

CVG

"best looking fps ever"

Eurogamer

"But it is a world whose intricacy and realism will cause you to stop and stare long after the first drop of the jaw. The sway of tree-tops; the spray of a decorative fountain; the flames erupting from a burst gas pipe: incidental details that grab your attention for their quiet, shocking realism. Who knows how Crytek managed to squeeze Cry Engine 3 onto the consoles while maintaining such extraordinary level of detail? But this world sits next to Uncharted 2's as the most detailed and well-expressed yet seen on our TVs."

digital foundry face off

"The crucial thing is that both are phenomenally attractive games, producing effects quite different and in many ways more advanced than anything we've seen elsewhere on console. We all wanted Crysis on console to be an event, a showcase release: by and large, Crytek has delivered, and those cutting edge visuals are backed by a truly impressive game design."

IGN

"Crysis 2 on Xbox 360 has taken the crown for best graphics in a console game"

electripig

"Crysis 2 is outstanding in almost every department, not least its visuals, which are the very best either PS3 or Xbox 360 has to offer right now"

GamesRadar:

"Crysis 2 does run on consoles, and it does so beautifully. We're calling it now: Crysis 2 is possibly the best-looking console game ever."

justpushstart.com

"I find Crysis 2 visuals to be superior to similar shooters like Call of Duty: Black Ops or Killzone 3."

xg247.co.uk

"Crysis 2 is definitely the best looking game on consoles and PC"

denofgeek

"I honestly think that this may well be the single best looking FPS I've ever seen, on any platform. It really does look that good."

XXLGaming:"The games visuals were just jaw dropping and I have to agree when Crytek says it is setting the bar in console gaming graphics. Just wow."

joystiq: Though about the millionth FPS built around a plot of an alien invasion, give or take a few, it's also the most beautiful.

destructoid: Naturally, the gameplay is all wrapped up with some of the most gorgeous visuals you'll see in a videogame.

gameinformer: Crytek wisely sticks to the traits that made the first game successful while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of graphical fidelity.

1up: Crysis 2 is just as visually impressive as its predecessor, even on PS3 and 360.

gamezone: The game looks utterly stunning and is arguably one of the best-looking shooters on consoles. I'm still undecided whether Crysis 2 looks better than the original game, but the fact that there is a discussion about which looks better speaks volumes on what Crytek was able to accomplish with their engine.

strategyinformer: Crysis 2 is bloody gorgeous, and by far one of the most polished games we've ever played. Watching the cityscape come crashing down around you in all its HD glory is quite the sight, especially in some of the more open areas midway through the main campaign. Whether you've diving across rooftops or making your way into the heart of an alien hive, it's all jaw-dropping throughout.

gamerevolution: Somehow the team over at Crytek has found a way to make their sequel just as visually remarkable as the original and without the need to spend a fortune on a fancy new video card and extra RAM (on the console at least)

msxbox-world: Crysis may have been the benchmark game on PC but for console owners there might be a new kid on the block as Crysis 2 really is a sight to behold.

metro: Although Crysis 2 swaps an actual jungle for the urban variety, the level of near photorealism remains. Despite the impressive scale the attention to detail is second to none: from hedges that shed leaves as you run through them to the filtering of light through a half-destroyed wall. That all this is running on a middle-aged console, not a state of the art PC, only makes it more impressive.

I only ask because you really need to at least experience it first hand. If after you play it and you continue in your position then well hey that's just the way you see it even though I'd still think you would be crazy to think the game is not pumping out some sick visuals for a console game.

I never siad its visuals werent nice, and i only asked how many sites called it that, because he makes it seems like its a lot

I don't know what your definition of "a lot is" but for me this qualifies:

I said call it the best looking game on all consoles, not just graphical praise.

I'm starting to think this guy is more than one account if you know what I mean.

"best looking fps ever"

I don't see where it says best looking console game

Eurogamer

"But it is a world whose intricacy and realism will cause you to stop and stare long after the first drop of the jaw. The sway of tree-tops; the spray of a decorative fountain; the flames erupting from a burst gas pipe: incidental details that grab your attention for their quiet, shocking realism. Who knows how Crytek managed to squeeze Cry Engine 3 onto the consoles while maintaining such extraordinary level of detail? But this world sits next to Uncharted 2's as the most detailed and well-expressed yet seen on our TVs."

It said sits next to, not surpass.

digital foundry face off

"The crucial thing is that both are phenomenally attractive games, producing effects quite different and in many ways more advanced than anything we've seen elsewhere on console. We all wanted Crysis on console to be an event, a showcase release: by and large, Crytek has delivered, and those cutting edge visuals are backed by a truly impressive game design."

More advanced effects=/=Better Graphics

IGN

"Crysis 2 on Xbox 360 has taken the crown for best graphics in a console game"

electripig

"Crysis 2 is outstanding in almost every department, not least its visuals, which are the very best either PS3 or Xbox 360 has to offer right now"

Ok, I'll give you this one

GamesRadar:

"Crysis 2 does run on consoles, and it does so beautifully. We're calling it now: Crysis 2 is possibly the best-looking console game ever."

Possibly=/=Definitely

justpushstart.com

"I find Crysis 2 visuals to be superior to similar shooters like Call of Duty: Black Ops or Killzone 3."

Ok, thats one site that says it looks better than KZ3, but did they say best looking GAMEon consoles?

xg247.co.uk

"Crysis 2 is definitely the best looking game on consoles and PC"

OK, I'll give you this one. Never heard of the site though.

denofgeek

"I honestly think that this may well be the single best looking FPS I've ever seen, on any platform. It really does look that good."

Again, never said best looking GAME on console. UC2 isn't an FPS,and the fact that he thinks it look better than KZ3 is one person opinion.

XXLGaming:"The games visuals were just jaw dropping and I have to agree when Crytek says it is setting the bar in console gaming graphics. Just wow."

I'll give you this one

joystiq: Though about the millionth FPS built around a plot of an alien invasion, give or take a few, it's also the most beautiful.

Again, they're only talking FPS

destructoid: Naturally, the gameplay is all wrapped up with some of the most gorgeous visuals you'll see in a videogame.

I'll give you this one

gameinformer: Crytek wisely sticks to the traits that made the first game successful while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of graphical fidelity.

Ok, I'll give you this one.

1up: Crysis 2 is just as visually impressive as its predecessor, even on PS3 and 360.

Cryis 1 craps all over Crysis 2, no credibility here.

gamezone: The game looks utterly stunning and is arguably one of the best-looking shooters on consoles. I'm still undecided whether Crysis 2 looks better than the original game, but the fact that there is a discussion about which looks better speaks volumes on what Crytek was able to accomplish with their engine.

Again, best looking shooter=/=best looking console game

strategyinformer: Crysis 2 is bloody gorgeous, and by far one of the most polished games we've ever played. Watching the cityscape come crashing down around you in all its HD glory is quite the sight, especially in some of the more open areas midway through the main campaign. Whether you've diving across rooftops or making your way into the heart of an alien hive, it's all jaw-dropping throughout.

Ok, I'll give you this one

gamerevolution: Somehow the team over at Crytek has found a way to make their sequel just as visually remarkable as the original and without the need to spend a fortune on a fancy new video card and extra RAM (on the console at least)

Crysis >>>Crysis 2. Anyone that says otherwise is saying that consoles can compete with PC. Credibility 0

msxbox-world: Crysis may have been the benchmark game on PC but for console owners there might be a new kid on the block as Crysis 2 really is a sight to behold.

Sight to behold=/=Best looking console game

metro: Although Crysis 2 swaps an actual jungle for the urban variety, the level of near photorealism remains. Despite the impressive scale the attention to detail is second to none: from hedges that shed leaves as you run through them to the filtering of light through a half-destroyed wall. That all this is running on a middle-aged console, not a state of the art PC, only makes it more impressive.

Again, not saying best looking game on consoles.

PSU- a pro ps3 site even says it looks better than KZ3 in this quote lol so now what?

"best looking shooter on PlayStation 3"

Best looking shooter=/=Best looking game on consoles.

All you proved is that a few reviewer think it looks better than KZ3, and that 5 or 6no name sitesthink its the best looking on consoles. Learn decipher your sources better instead of hearing what you want to hear. Lets see the final tally when Crysis 2 has more than 25 reviews.........

[QUOTE="MozartXVI"][QUOTE="Nolakk"] "It's difficult to give any really strong recommendation about which version of Crysis 2 to buy if you're in the enviable position of being able to choose between both HD console platforms." Son, if you can't read thats your problem.Nolakk

[QUOTE="TintedEyes"][QUOTE="1Stark1"]

Yeah, how about checking the official Crysis 2 thread. I posted it there. Do research before posting. UC2 shadows are not dynamic? Are you talking out of your @ss now?Sounds like you're making stuff up.

Bus-A-Bus

What?Thats exactly what people CAN except.It seems like SOME people can't except that Crysis 2 is one of the best looking games on consoles,to lot reviewers even the best.We all have opinions but to listen opionion of the guy that never played the game and the guy who says AW looks better,again,game he hasn't played is crazy.He is on his **** 24/7,that makes this even worse.This guy really has hard time accepting it.

I think he meant by most review sites.

Lol cows have charlie sheen like levels of denial. Crysis 2 is the best looking game on consoles.8)

Based off what? A few no name sites and IGN? Plus UC3 hasn't come out yet, which will look a lot better than even UC2.
