Does any console game look even half as good as the best looking PC games?

The Crysis Warhead train level was simply brilliant. If you didn't play it, and just know about it from this video, you would think it's a generic onrails sequence. It isn't. You can get out of the train at *anytime*, explore the surroundings, get on a jeep, drive to the train and get back in. You're free to approach it how you see fit. It puts any other train level I've ever played to shame, and not only because of the graphics.

The Crysis Warhead train scene doesn't look that impressive. You shoot some jeeps, look at the same banana plants copy and pasted, jump of the train to pull a switch, fight some more jeeps, go past a frozen bit of island, then inside a swamp. Then you watch a terrible, jerky cutscene with terrible animations and awful voice acting. :lol:

Same banana plants copy and pasted? Says the guys who posted a video of Uncharted with even more copy and pasted foliage... Self owned much...lol

But it's foilage exclusive to that level. Crysis has the same assets repeated throughout the entire game. Crysis also has no landmarks, or points of interests.

Uncharted has incredible variation and locations, with incredible attention to detail. Crysis doesn't. That's the difference.

In my opinion. :) You know, when you're playing it in motion, not pausing the game staring at the ground textures :lol:

PS3 graphic detail looks awful plain and simple let alone low resolution , bland texture detail, low count of 3d objects massive use of 2d objects, low LOD

Agreed.

mrfrosty151986

Im not sure why hermits get so butt hurt when a console game looks good are when a console is suppsoed to be powerful, but relying on gimmicks will kill the industry. If the definition of innovative is what Nintendo did with the Wii and everyone followed it would ruin the industry. Also a large portion of these great looking pc games would never get made because they would have to be made exclusively for the platform and devs simlply are not going to take that risk . The next consoles need to be at least DX11 and 1080p capable or pc gaming will suffer as well.

Check the charts and you'll see the opposite, PC gaming is growing again and growing quite well. Next set of consoles being DX11 is a given and 1080p depends if Sont and MS make 1080p mandatory. 720 will still be standard next gen imo as it meens there's more power for making prettier pixels.

Yes check the charts, Pc gaming is growing thanks to soical gaming which are cheap low budget titles that 15 year old hardware could run with no problem. The growth in the pc market has little to do with the rise of higher end games. There is a reason why there are very few pc titles that actually take advantage of the hardware and its simply because there needs to be consoles out there that are closer to todays pc's are else you can expect more big buget titles to look about like Diablo 3, which by my standards looks pretty average.

The consoles are based on hardware that's come from PC and is using software and middleware made on more advanced PC? So in retrospective without PC having more advanced hardware there would be no next generation consoles.

Honestly,I find that UC2 train sequences one of the worst levels in the game.It's 100% scripted,which means you don't get any level of control,while the entire level looks very mediocre(by my standards at least),also the thing that entirely ruined it all for me was the chopper fight,bad controls,bad camera angles mixed with bullet-sponge enemies made it very frustrating,lots of cheap deaths...

Crysis Warhead easily has the best "train level" I've ever played in any game,since you can play it your way,as the user above pointed out.Stay on the train,or go out and follow it by your method of choice,do what you want.Also,the level isn't a frustrating mess...

Ex PS3-Owner here. Let's not get started on Uncharted mmm-kay? I originally thought the game was pretty, but the more I played it the more I realized how absolutely horrible it looks to the point it looks cartoonish.

From start to finish? Are you sure.... So I didn't play on a ship or any mine and snow levels? It's on an island, what did you expect? To be magically beamed into the dessert or to a city? You're just getting desperate now and your reasons and logic are none existent.

Oh I forgot im here in SW and logical arguments are not allowed. First of all stop acting like a 13 year old buthurt hermit and listen to what im saying. My point is to those who say console manufactures shouldnt even try to make higher end hardware to compete with pc , that they should rely on innovation( gimmicks) to be a true gaming console. My point is not only will consoles suffer and ultimately fail if they do this, but the pc industry will suffer as well as few devs will waste there time pushing hardware if they have to release there big budget title on one platform. Yes it is common sense that console hardware is inspired by pc hardware im not trying to get into an argument that pc's couldnt exist without consoles are vice versa my point is as a gamer everyone should hope the next consoels are technically advanced are we will be stuck with games that dont look far beyond whats out now and thats on all platforms.

It has a hyperrealistic look , hell pixar films look cartoonish does that mean they look horrible to you? UC are widely regarded as some of the best looking games in the industry among both gamers and reviewers. I play PS3, 360 and PC and UC games look outstanding by any standards.

Then that would be art direction and not technical beauty. Your saying that Crysis is technically inferior by comparing the environment design, which is completely irrelevant...

Crysis warhead train level:

looks better (at the very least from a technical viewpoint). I see an enemy jeep over on my right, it looks good graphically, I can jump off the train and run through the brush and plywood shacks between the train and the jeep, all of it still looks good even while up close, and are interactive (foilage has physics that react to you moving into them, and the shacks are dynamically destructable) and not just static background pieces not reachable by the player, I get to the jeep, it and everything around it still looks good even though I'm much closer to it than I would be on the train, where I'm kind of supposed to be (by the way the mission doesn't even fail if you leave the train, the dev's completely meant to give you the option to leave), the jeep is dynamically controlled by AI (not on rails and 100% scripted in how it drives and is destroyed unlike in Uncharted 3), is destructable at any time by any means, has dynamic part based damage (gas tank explodes if shot, tires can be popped and cause the vehicle to lose control in a non-scripted way 100% dictated by real-time physics), and if the driver is killed, I could even hijack it and defend the train by driving alongside it, all during which the game takes no hit in graphics or performance. And then of course I could go back on to the train and continue the mission in a more "traditional way". All while running advanced render tech, max settings, REAL 1080p resolution (with a beefier PC it could even go up to 2560x1600, much better than even 1080p), at 45-60fps on a (at the time when I first played Warhead) 2 year old $900 PC (warhead is MUCH easier to run than Crysis 1 but looks better), considering ALL this, the funny part is even though this is FAR more dynamic and non-linear than Uncharted, its still one of the more restricted Crysis levels!!!:lol:

Uncharted train level:

Very narrow path, the order of all events are scripted and the player is very carefully restricted and guided in his/her progression, enemies are introduced only on the train, other enemies off the train are introduced in a 100% scripted manner and how they die is static, the player cannot leave the train dynamically, and sometimes all movement control is removed from the player completely, besides the enemies basic ragdoll bodies there is nearly no dynamic physics, there are 100% static, low res, and low polygon vegetation along the side of the train, the terrain and level area outside the train is so uninteractive that most of it doesn't even have collision detection (its not solid, objects will go through it), nothing is dynamically destructable, all the textures are modest to low resolution, render technology is along the lines of years old DirectX 9.0C tech, the objects all have lower polygon counts than the Crysis example, all running below the acceptable framerate threshold of 30fps, running at the BARE minimum resolution to honestly be considered HD, 1280x720, a resolution I played Max Payne 1 on in 2003.

If you think that Uncharted better is better graphicallly, technically, or more complex and defined visually, you are certifiably insane. Or you're trolling, just trying to prove to any naysayers that you are 100% full of bullsh*t!

No one cares about the power of pc or how much games look better on PC. PC is interchangeable and games are scalable for that reason so its a moot point to argue the power of new hardware with existing fixed systems. Secondly, 99% of games don't really take advantage of the power, either it caters to indie devs that could run their software on almost anything, or we get console ports designed aroudn a 512mb memory foot print (mechanics wise + assets) then just get upscaled assets... mmm pretty corridor shooters. The only good thing about PC gaming is the freedom of choice on PC's but thats also the worst part of PC gaming because it lacks standards.

You shoot some jeeps, look at the same banana plants copy and pasted, jump of the train to pull a switch, fight some more jeeps, go past a frozen bit of island, then inside a swamp. Then you watch a terrible, jerky cutscene with terrible animations and awful voice acting. :lol:

PS3 graphic detail looks awful plain and simple let alone low resolution , bland texture detail, low count of 3d objects massive use of 2d objects, low LOD

You are the hermit version of loosingends you are just a troll.

:lol: please.......

Console graphic detail has been stagnate for nearly three years and thats because of their low amount of video memory. Its funny to see PS3 fanboys post bullshots as proof , because when someone posts the real screen caps such as God of War 3 actual gameplay graphics are bad it makes them look bad. Calling me a hermit version of loosingends is a joke right? I have had every single console out this generation. No one can be as dumb as him and if you cant see the flaws in console graphics then you sir are a troll but not as bad as loosing.

That's why people compare Pc vs consoles and console vs console with graphics if no cared nor was in denial about their favorite console not being the best you wouldnt have versus graphics threads. If no one cared about Pc graphics then why post in these threads then hmm?

But it's foilage exclusive to that level. Crysis has the same assets repeated throughout the entire game. Crysis also has no landmarks, or points of interests.

Uncharted has incredible variation and locations, with incredible attention to detail. Crysis doesn't. That's the difference.

Peredith

Lmaoo... You're so deluded it's funny... Crysis is set on a tropical island so of course you're going to get the same plant life :lol: Landmarks or points of interest? The islands it's based on are real and are based on real locations, do you not remember the promo shots comparing Crysis to pictures of the actual island? :lol::lol: Attention to detail? Don't make me laugh... Uncharted is nothing but a scripted, cut scene heavy on the rails corridor shooter....

Ok, I'll make it easier for you to understand. This is how a typical level in Crysis looks, from start to finish.

It doesn't have any standout land marks. It looks bland. There's no immediate wowness to Crysis like there is in a game like Uncharted. It's just the same sh!t copy and pasted.

Crysis+Warhead have plenty of variety. Problem is you're an idiot who hasn't played them and you have no idea what you're talking about that. Most of the shots you see are from the forest part but you have night levels, a level in zero gravity inside the mountain (which I personally LOVED, absolutely fantastic art direction), snow levels, an aircraft carrier level, a level where you fly a VTOL, frozen ocean levels where you drive an overcraft, a part inside an ice cave, a frozen aircraft carrier in the middle of the frozed ocean, a train level (a real train level, not linear crap like Uncharted :lol: ), and more.

Play Crysis (1 or 2) on a decent rig fully maxed and you'll understand why we say it looks one generation ahead of any console game, and certainly FAR FAR above your precious Uncharted.

I don't fully agree with console graphics stagnating for three years now.Saying that would imply how there haven't been ANY graphical improvements in console graphics after 2009,and that isn't entirely correct.While it's true there haven't been any huge advancements since 2009,they still exist,and are fairly noticeable in many games...

Oh,and I agree how it's funny looking at pictures posted by PS3 fanboys,all carefully adjusted to make them look good,while direct feed shots look much,much worse,showing technical limitations all around(too much post-processing to hide low-res textures,little to no AA,etc) :)

Im talking about mostly texture and shader detail , artistic direction is a totally different thing.For the last three years havent seen any major improvements in graphics quality as in resolution,and detail.

Ex PS3-Owner here. Let's not get started on Uncharted mmm-kay? I originally thought the game was pretty, but the more I played it the more I realized how absolutely horrible it looks to the point it looks cartoonish.

It has a hyperrealistic look , hell pixar films look cartoonish does that mean they look horrible to you? UC are widely regarded as some of the best looking games in the industry among both gamers and reviewers. I play PS3, 360 and PC and UC games look outstanding by any standards.

You have no idea what "hyper-realistic" even means. Don't even try.

Then your doing something wrong or you are lying. Because my old 8800GT's in SLI could play Crysis on very high at 1680x1050 with an average of 35 fps.

I still doubt that you have a GTX 680, because my GTX 560 can play Crysis maxed out with mods with 4xAA and still get 40 FPS average at 1680x1050.

Well dont use 8x AA..... Use FXAA instead or even 4x AA because at 1920x1200 with 4x a GTX 680 averages nearly 50 fps.

No they don't. You're staring at the same textures again and again and again. Nothing stands out, because it all looks the same.

This is variety. All these screenshots are from 15 minutes of gameplay.

There are only a few games that look head-over-heels better than most of the graphis heavy console exclusives. The main ones being Crysis, Warhead, and Crysis 2 (with MaLDo). Then there's Battlefield 3, which doesn't look mouth wateringly amazing. It's just really impressive to look as great as it does with those huge maps, players, and vehicles.

Killzone 3, Gears of War 3, God of War 3, Uncharted 3 rival PC games greatly (in terms of on screen eye candy). Technically, the numbers on PC are higher, but what I actually see on screen is just about the same. Resolution is better of course, which is important to a lot of people.

Best thing about PC gaming are mods, which less games are supporting. After that are the amazing deals! Then playing games at 60+ FPS, which is a VERY good advantage (depends on your hardware).

Don't let the hermits lie to you. There are many benefits to PC gaming, but graphics aren't what should make you wanna start PC gaming.
