Before bashing me for having an opinion, you are to understand that I base my observation on the leaked Crysis 2 and Metro 2033 DX11 at maximum setting.

NOTE: This is not a total comparison; it is purely about interior environmental comparison.

To all of System Wars, I hereby voice my opinion which puts Metro 2033 as the superior real-time graphical marvel over Crysis 2. This obversation takes into account the lighting, texture, and material from both parties.

Crysis 2's killer is, without a doubt, the lighting and particle effect of Metro 2033.

As for the texture and material, Metro 2033 seems to have the higher level of detail(LoD).

In the end though, Crysis 2 is at a huge disadvantage due to the observed version being an unfinished one. There are many visual polish missing in the build. To add further, it is locked at medium (DX9) setting.

However, I doubt the retail Crysis 2 at maximum setting will look much better than, if not equal to, Metro 2033's interior visual.

Let the galore starts now...

So, basically, you're comparing Crysis 2 Medium to Metro 2033 Ultra?

Sounds reasonable ...

Oooooh, it's yooouuu. No wonder.

Metro has a much nicer art style. Crysis 2 is a bit soul less.

i think metro looks better, the only thing that crysis has is mass foliage that tends to make enviorments look better then they should

Metro 2033 has an incredible amount of detail, but a good amount of it were bland anyways. I haven't played Crysis 2 so I cannot say for myself.... Different art style. Like way different..

Of course metro have more details. It renders only tiny little areas with far less objects than crysis.

Metro 2033 is the most impressive looking game I have played, infact the only game competing with it is Crysis (hard to choose between them because Crysis is so open). Im reserving judgement but what I have seen of Crysis 2 is much more boxed in so it should be better than Metro 2033's eye candy.

I watched a youtube video showing crysis 2 PC on high. The guy claimed you can unlock high settings editing the config etc. The video was convincing it looked better then the other crysis videos. As for metro 2033 i think crysis 2 will put it in its place. Modded crysis looked better.

I think Crysis 2 will do just that. Judging from a certain leaked video gameplay, it already looks better, imho. Crytek needs to keep their reputation as the graphics guru's. :P

Crysis 1 was locked at High(DX9)/Very High (DX10). You could edit config to get better graphics. Doesn't mean the term 'locked' isn't accurate.

Why are you pitting a beta against a full retail game?

I don't know. Once Crysis 2 is released I think this could actually be a good debate. Metro 2033 actually beats Crysis 1 indoors and it seems that the indoor parts of Crysis 2 are much better than Crysis 1, so in about a month I think a thread like this can be made.

Wrong. Crysis edges out Metro 2033.

I bet it'll look better than Metro in DX11, would be funny if the MP demo looked better when it comes on March 1st.
