Prettiest? That is some highly subjective terminology you used. I mean I could go back and use something like Grim Fandango with that.

Yup. It beats Crysis (the previous champ) mainly because of an improved use of lighting and slightly more stylized effects.

No. No sir it's not. It depicts a realistic war. How can it be pretty?

The Windwaker is pretty. Okami is pretty. Paper Mario is pretty. Heck, even Halo is pretty. Crysis is not.

The part where Psycho had to go through the mining complex looked absolutely incredible.

I was unaware of the fact that I was playing a depiction of a "realistic war" after I was fighting against a giant robot infront of a train tunnel in the middle of a frost sphere on a tropical island inhabited by million year old aliens :?

By the way, the snow and ice levels of Crysis Warhead looked very pretty. Waves frozen in the middle of the ocean are awesome.

Lol, obviously the setting isn't what you'd describe as war. The sheer amount of realism in all the characters and effects is what i was referring to. Smashing a little korean dudes face is is anything but pretty.

Realistic? None of the military hardware, let alone the aliens, are even real.

Sure that isn't, but stopping to watch the sunset on a tropical beach sure is.

Yep, with all the claret blood flowing down the Brutes violet armor. So pretty.

Even with playing Crysis Warhead on high settings, there are several games that I find to be more pretty and more appealing. Team Fortress 2, The Witcher, and even GTA4 are games that I like visually more than I do Crysis. Not to say that Crysis has no soul because it does. But these games offer much better art direction.

Throwing a korean through a shack as it collapses is even more so.

Nope. It may be the most technical but not the prettiest IMO.

Though due to level design changes it lacked as large open scenic views.... however it was stunning, and damn amazing by all accounts. Stronger art direction with level design, more visual flare, better framerate. Admittedly better than Crysis - even with the Natural mod.

You say HEavy rain is way better, and although from the pictures it's going to be beautiful, then you go on to degrade Crysis's gameplay? Heavy Rain is going to be an interactive movie as has been stated by the developers. I think you can chalk one up ion the gameplay department for Crysis on this one (Even though Heavy Rain hasn't even been released)

no... the original crysis is, the configs are a bit more flexible, there are time of day adjustments for the original one, mods, and every last bit can look better than warhead with a config

   It'sdefinitely a very pretty game, but it depends on the levels. It also depends on the TOD (time of day) lighting settings. The beach above is beautiful, is it not? CryEngine 2 is amazing when used to show off a well designed level, or colourful levels. The Crysis Lego Maps are a good example.

No, Crysis has the best graphics but it's a matter of taste. I find CoD4 prettier, I just like the way things look and I'm not saying that it looks better than Crysis.
