If GEOW comes out for the PC, which eventually it probably will, then yes you can, selling mods is a complicated thing, since you dont legally "own" it.

[QUOTE="primetime2121"][QUOTE="baddog121390"][QUOTE="sneeze25"]ME > Crysis in gameplay
Crysis > ME in graphics
Cycloptis
How?


theres more to it than mindless run and gun..Mass Effect will have a better story, can control a squad which makes it more tactical, vehicles...ME > Crysis in gameplay

Crysis won't be mindless run and gun at all, and it will have vehicles. Have you paid no heed to the game? Mass Effect isn't some holy grail of intellectual gameplay. Its forefathers at least did not cut dialogue in favour of voice acting, and for all we know they'll have far greater role-playing elements. At least if KOTOR and JE are anything to judge it by.

I agree, not only that but the last Bioware game with satisfying combat was the Baldur's Gate series, since then the action in their games was never any good.

No, no it doesn't.

Try recent photos, the game keeps getting better and better looking. Not sure crysis is going to be able to keep up anymore.

seriously Crysis main character model looks good, but I think he is finished. They are not going to make him better. Now look how good this lizard man looks, Dang! Other parts of Crysis I am not to impressed with, enviroments looks nice though. But lots of building, cars, textures look weak. This recent photo here with the lizard man, omg, for real if Mass Effect is going to look better than that pic, it is going to have such awsome graphics. It already look outstanding, can they make it look better? I spend a lot of time on art forums, like CGtalk and gfxartist. This lizard man looks almost as good as modern 3d pictures, which could not be in a game any time soon because the polygon number is way to high.

That lizard pic shows actual face. A lot more detail is allowed then, while the Crysis guy (Jake Dunn) has a mask on.

Here's the face in Crysis (it's missing something to take the shiny away right now):



And here's a better pic showing the suit:



The suit also has dynamic lighting built right in (the red glow brightens in real-time once you go in strength mode).

Crysis does have better graphics then Mass Effect. However if I were to choose between the two, I would go with Mass Effect. I like RPG's better then FPS's and in my opinion:  Well made RPG > Well made FPS.

In my oppenion the lizard face looks better. I remember gears faces looking much better while playing. However they still look really good. Perhaps some faces will look better in Crysis than they did in gears. As of right now though I think Mass Effect has the better graphics.

No, it doesn't.

I think it will probably be the better of the two games, by far - aside from the graphics, Crysis looks to be pretty by-the-numbers.  But Crysis does look better.

While it basically boils down to preference, Mass Effect has perfected the "Plastic soldier" look while Crysis when along the lines of photo-realism. Which is better? Opinion.

no....

yes, Alan wake has the best lighting ever and you could probably fit Crysis , FarCry, and Crytek's next gen inside the city that Alan Wake takes place in .

Well that's a given, Alan Wake is a 2008 title, so developers will be able to utilise Dx10 much more effectively by then one would imagine.

just saying Crysis is great and everything but Alan Wake blows it out the water . Also the Water in Alan Wake destroys Crysis. Not to mention the real time weather

You continue to own yourself.

Crysis has real physical water that reacts realistically to everything. Heavy storms cause tidal waves. And real-time weather? Crysis does tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, snow storms, thunder storms all randomly. And every single person disagrees with you about which one looks better. In fact, Crysis can be compared to real-life. You can't get better than that.


eh..alan wake has better effects..everything breaks like cardboard in Crysis



Yeah?


yup

Crysis wins.

Those are not cut scenes watch the video demo. The guy says although it may look like a cut scene this is actual game play. And then he interupts the guy talking which is a feature in the game. So the fact you thought they were cut scenes tells me how awsome the graphics are. Matter of fact I do not think there is one cutscene in the whole game. The story like gears is told with out cut scenes.

True. They are not cutscense, I have both Videos of that demo on my Xbox 360 and it clearly states multiple times that everything was rendered in real-time.

First things first, you can't just say it has better graphics if you find one thing looks better than another -- especially with Crysis.

I'll pull this out for you which I find is getting old, but it is a more finished model and looks nearly real, and will be in the game.

Crysis looks better overall, but not by far. I think Mass effect has a better art direction with its SCi-Fi feel, much like Halo.

What are you arguing about, Look at ME it has no almost no draw distance and 0 AF, Crysis is far more detailed. Even the suit of the crysis guy is more detailed than the ones in ME.

Cryengine is more advanced than Unreal engine and Crysis looks better than Mass Effect.

What the hell, your areguing too or else you would'nt have posted. I can to say that the UE3.0 is more advanced because its more versatile with all current-gen and pc platforms whereas CryEngine is only DirectX10 complient and only PCs use directX10. Saying it looks better is partial opinion-based as you can see there are a few people here that agree that M.E. looks as good or better.

Only drawback for ME is that the enviornments arent as interactive as Crysis. It really does look as good as Crysis. What Renderware are those dudes using for MEPro_Wrestler

it depends... I think Crysis does jungle environments really well. While ME focuses on the interaction between characters => facial animation.
