Comparing a PC game to a console game is a little extreme and ridiculous knowing PC games pass any console game in graphics by far. Console to console is the more fair approach.

ItsBriskBaby
Understood, but this is system wars, not console wars. All systems have a say here. People, especially PS3 fans always bring up the "pc is always better graphics" argument as if it justifies crowning something that clearly isn't the best in a forum that includes all. Isn't it enough to say Uncharted 2 looks better than any 360 game. That's what they really are bragging about anyway.

Crysis looks better but Uncharted 2 is much closer to Crysis than any other game ... on consoles.

Oh well another graphics comparison thread by a PS3 user challenging PCs most technically advanced games, nothing new here.

The last picture is a pre-release bullshot.

Although Crysis looks great, and is probably technically better than Uncharted 2...I think Uncharted 2 looks better and is just more impressive.

The rock textures on the beaches in Crysis are really bad...not saying Crysis is a bad looking game but there are faults. Also, I think Uncharted 2's artstyle is vastly superior.

gameplay> graphics aka uncharted >> crysis

bokiloki

Have you even played Uncharted 2 yet? :|

no but i played the first one, and that ones one of the best games ive ever played, the sequel builds on that and adds multiplayer.

Crysis has much better single player. And Uncharted doesn't even have multiplayer, so Crysis wins in that department also. lol Guess gameplay and graphics wise, Crysis > Uncharted.

I see the people claiming Uncharted 2 is close haven't taken note of the fact that no comparable media has been posted.

Have we got a Uncharacted 2 face vs a Crysis face? Game play footage vs game play footage? Vegetation vs vegetation? No, we have random screenshots that are not similar enough for comparison.

Showing the people saying Uncharted 2 looks as good as Crysis are hype driven.

lol cows, sorry to disagree , but uncharted doesn't comes close to Crysis --- I would say a shame really with Crysis being set on such a bigger scale than Uncharted 2 and ti still doesn't comes close to it

Some of you need to take scale into consideration. Once you do, you'll easily see that Crysis is still the victor.

Scale isn't really a factor in visuals. It's surely a factor technically, and I believe we're all in agreement that Crysis is better technically than Uncharted 2...but this thread is about visuals.

[QUOTE="navyguy21"]its not even in the same league, not even on the same PLANET as Crysis, that said, its still a great looking game, no doubt about it. The gameplay is what matters, so i wish people would stop with the graphics threads............PLEASETheElfChild
But graphics is what sets the good graphics apart from the Wii!

the system being so sadly weak that 3rd party games cant even be ported to it, and a small amount of quality game's backed by the massive pile of dung that is the Wii library is what sets it apart

yes and if one is rendering a guy in a small scale lvl, and the other is rending and entire open world island, it matters. Thats part of the "graphics"

Scale affects the quality of visuals because it has to take more assets into account. Any game can achieve a high quality level within a restricted space, the less rendered the higher quality the existing assets can be. For Crysis to have the scale it does while maintaining such a high quality level; it is a testament to the quality of the games visuals.

If Crysis were done at the scale of most console games; the quality level would be much higher.

UC2 looks good but I just don't see it coming even close to Crysis with everything squeezed out of it, in fact I don't think ANY console game will this gen, it's just out of their league.

[QUOTE="PSdual_wielder"]

Can we even run crysis on ultra yet?

-CUBE-

Assuming you mean maxed out, then yes. I actually play Crysis at graphics beyond what the developers intended thanks to the texture upgrade, Cvar and ToD mods the community personally developed. All maxed out at 30 fps.

Yup, I have an 8800GT -which is dirt cheap nowadays- and I can run Crysis at max running on 1080P, which is a resolution console games only dream of achieving -expect maybe for a couple games that looks horrible anyways compared to Crysys-.

I doubt it. I run a Q8200 @ 3.2Ghz, 4GB RAM, and dual 9800GTXs in SLI and I only play on 1280x1024 and have Crysis on very high with 2xAA and it lags and forget about running Crysis Warhead on Enthusist settings my comp will explode ... still waiting for DX 11 so I can finally max it out.

yeah then this whole thing is over since you cant argue visuals since its all subjective. theres no such thing as 'best visuals' on top of that uncharted and crysis have two different art styles and cant even be compared.

I doubt it. I run a Q8200 @ 3.2Ghz, 4GB RAM, and dual 9800GTXs in SLI and I only play on 1280x1024 and have Crysis on very high with 2xAA and it lags and forget about running Crysis Warhead on Enthusist settings my comp will explode ... still waiting for DX 11 so I can finally max it out.

nVidiaGaMer

hes lying. and youre doing something wrong. 2 9800GTXs in SLI shoild easily be able to pull off 40fps at that res on max.

if its not theres some issue. worst comes to worst try a mod.

Yes he is lying . A single 8800gt can noway pull off crysis at 1080p max details. On the other hand it can run it with a bit of overclock on a mix high-very high which still looks phenomenal settings at 1440x900 with about 30fps average and some dropdowns to low 20's. Also 2 9800gtx's i think they should be a ble to pull the game at 1680x1050 at max settings at about 30fps average so maybe you are doing something wrong there ( take notice AA on crysis even 2xAA really kills performance on mid end vga's)

you're doing something wrong. i run crysis at 1680x1050 with a custom vhigh config and sound on medium and i average 25-35 FPS with drops to around 20 on wide open areas, no AA because that wold kill it... and i have a Q6600 at 3.2 400x8, 4 gigs of DDR2 800 and a single heavily overclocked 4850

maybe you have to buy a better quadcore or OC it higher, note that your CPU has to handle SLI and the game at the same time. It could also be that your PCIe slots run only at 4 or 8 with MultiGPUs, Or maybe you just forgot to enable SLI in your control panel lol.

Your running custom settings thats probably why and AA cuts my framerate by like 33% with 2xAA and probably 50%+ if I use 4xAA or higher. The only custom settings I'm using are to eliminate pop in.

Why do people even make these threads? Uncharted has nothing on crysis, not in models, animations, detail, enviroment, gameplay etc. Not to mention crysis is an opening world game with an extrememly interactive enviroment and uncharted is a corridor shooter.

   I took these running on my 8800GT, and they are all in-game, however U2 hasn't released yet, and we don't even have confirmed in-game shots yet. Crysis wins, hands down, U2 looks good, but Crysis is in a gen of its own.

We haven't seem some half decent Crysis screens yet, so I feel obliged to contribute. ALSO: Inb4 "lulz you gots 4FPS on a 50000000000000 dollar PC". Before spitting console fanboy drivel like that, look at my framerate on the top right corner of the screen. BTW, this is on my $700 PC from 2008.

Uncharted 2 is linear,Where areas Crysis is OPEN WORLD,Uncharted 2 has 0 destruction in real time ( scripted events don't count,every game does that )Crysis has destruction in real time and you can destroy things by yourself,Uncharted 2 doesn't have that much going on screen..come on 5 or 6 guys on screen? and sometimes even less...uncharted 2 only has animations and that's the only thing about it..where are Crysis has Scale,eyes candy,physics,destruction superior Lighting..and i can't keep going..even some console games look as good as UC2 and got a lot more going on screen too,and please don't try to prove me wrong with OPINIONS,because i see every day here people trying to beat opinions with opinions LMAO.

The game to beat crysis will be another PC game. You console guys don't get it, your video cards are ancient, your memory is laughable, and your CPU's are slow.

Haha no you can't that is IMPOSSIBLE. My 4870 can't even run at that res while playing on very high and having any sort off AA would kill my FPS.
