Let's take a look at some Crysis screenshots:

Ok. Now let's take a look at some Eternal Sonata screens:

As you can see, Crysis is so stale from an artistic point of view. It's basically Far Cry but with shinier leaves and trees. Eternal Sonata on the other hand looks jaw dropping from both a technical and artistic point of view. The shading and spell effects are enough to induce drooling.

So the bottom line is that Crysis already is outdated before being released. You heard it here first folks.

Discuss. :)

You are in denial. If you truly thought that Crysis looked half as nice as ES then you'd have explained.

I love how your sig says you're a 100% unbiased gamer.

Really, I can understand if someone likes the art style of Eternal Sonota, but you've got to be blind to actually think that it technically trumps Crysis.

I agree. Crysis' depiction of realistic environmentslacks flair.Maybe ifthey added some toadstools and anime characters it would be more artistic.

You mean ignoring the whole "technical" part of graphics and going straight to the art? In that case, even Folklore murders Eternal Sonata.

How good a game looks is all a matter of taste. Some people will think Eternal Sonata looks better because of the cel shaded art styIe, others will think Crysis looks better because of the details. Nobody's opinion is wrong, and nobody's is right.

Rofl the definition of a terrorist isnt blowing people up ... jeez.... cmon...

Then again, his list is wrong by the definition aswell, System Wars Trolls or whatnot would be a better label.

That's not the case here. I posted several pics to explain why I made a claim like I did in the thread title. That makes me more qualified.

Eternal Sonata looks better than Crysis in an ARTISTIC standpoint, not a TECHNICAL one. And just because you posted pics makes you a more qualified poster???

Still opinion , Crysis is very easy on the eyes, Eternal Sonata to me looks lifeless anime with bland colouring, I'm not saying there isnt artistic games that beat Crysis, but my god that cell shaded reall **** version of anime is not 1 of them.

ANd I already showed you used the wrong terminology. Just because something looks like andy warhols' splooge it isn't art. You may find the game more aesthetically pleasing, but that DOES NOT make it graphically better. There is no unifying motifs in Eternal SOnata that would qualify it as high art, unlike games like Saboteur that have Film Noire as the unifying motif. So please, don't bring up art unless you have the vaguest idea of what you're talking about.

Don't be so biased. Anyone who isn't a jealous hermit knows that ES looks mind blowing.

Those things denote unifying motifs like Film Noire (Saboteur). You may find the game aesthetically pleasing, but that DOES NOT equate to better graphics. Laymens? OMG LOOK BETTER =/= art.

Not really. Some people really just don't like the art styIe of the game. I didn't like the way it looked at first, but then it sort of grew on me. Now I really like it.

So you're saying that just because I think ES looks nice that doesn't mean it does in general. You could not be farther from the truth.

Art can be as simple as a few lines of paint or as complex as Eternal Sonata. Let me review my options here: I can go along with my qualified opinion and Gamespot's or I can listen to a hermit who is angry. I think I will take the first option.

Crysis is going for realism. It's like comparing a realistic landscape to an impressionist's take on the same subject, the impressionist's work might appeal to you more but you can't say it was painted better. If crysis was trying to look like anime you'd be right, it's graphics would be lacking in comparision but it wasn't.

People like you that claim others are angry for correcting you are the most annoying breed of opiniated snobs I can think of, you contradicted yourself, an art ****cannot be outdated, Technical Achievement can be, but Eternal Sonata does not come anywhere near close, therefore Crysis isnt outdated, and your whole thread is M00T.

Besides, You dont find ES better, your just sparking arguements , and you choice one poor example of a game as an example :lol: ... art ****better.... lap up the japanese culture as always... there is much better than that game on the market.
