Tough one.

I'll wait until all are released. Probably Crysis though, considering that's the only one that isn't getting ported to the 360 where a console could hinder it's graphical quality.

I think it's due to Crysis's scale that it just can't be done like it is on the PC.

Those other games aren't as open ended as Crysis is, are they?

two games we haven't heard much about and no concrete gameplay pics so why does matter which one looks better now?

i like project offset

both visually and technically.

It doesnt have as much detail as the other 2, but its pushing way more polygons which makes the world seem much more "full" if you know what i mean. Sometimes when i look at the character models of the Koreans in crysis i t kinda looks like they are just very detailed "2 dimensional" characters

i love the art style in PO the most as well

The only valid answer is "I'll wait and see".

We know next to nothing about Alan Wake, and have only seen a few gameplay vids of Project Offset.

I'll hold my judgement until I hear more about Alan Wake and Project Offset though from what I've seen Alan Wake looks amazing.

I think Alan Wake overall looks the most realistic. It has the best textures, and lighting. However i think project offset wins in character models, and most realistic animations( have you seen that video of the dragon, god dang)as well as vision, the blurr just makes things looks amazing. But from what we know, i think crysis wins in technical aspects, like destroyable objects and environments. They all look amazing, and hopefully will play the same way.

Best textures? Put some glasses on and take a better look, the textures aren't really that good.

we know next to nothing about Alan Wake and PO....

all that we know is that these 3 games are probably a good indictation of how PC games will look in the future....right now Crysis is the only game that requires a 8800 for high settings.....We can only imagine what other games that use such strong hardware will be like.

That tech demo was overrated. It's not a huge leap from face models in current games.

I think it was because it was put together in such a short time. I cant wait to see what heavy rain, getaway 3, and eight days look like now.

stills don't do crysis justic as half of its amazing graphics are in the realtime shadows, changing lighting and move grass/trees. so you can't compare it to alan wake without seeing if those shadow move in alan wake

I would of said Crysis but since my new PC with a 8800 GTS card can only play it at medium settings it looks like a Xbox 360 game.

As for the others I'll have to wait for a demo or the game itself

Crysis wins. Alan Wake looks nice because of the artistic style and draw distance, but honestly it doesn't compare to Crysis judging by those shots, the tree on the left is....well, Gothic3 has better looking trees than that. And there are no character models visible, sure the environments are nice but how's the rest, I remember seeing a picture of the gas station and the wheel of the car in front of it had like 4 polygons. PO looks kinda like UE3, but way too early to judge based on few screenies.

Didn't think anyone would honestly agree with that outlandish statement.

I got that leaked Project Offset trailer on my computer; the one that they called back as it was an internal trailer. I think you said earlier skrat that all you see is PO rendering a Dwarf.

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/22926.html -- Think it does more than rendering a dwarf there mate.

Would still pick Alan Wake over both of them though. Painted realism in a way that never caught my eye before.

Ive seen screens of the troll, eviroments, and the dwarf. Its knowhere a compex as Crysis's visuals.

As for Alan Wake, I like it, but its no kicker to Crysis.

And Mandingo is right about the whole PC to Console version thing.....

Alan Wake imo... not tech wise but on artistic standpoint. I love the Alan Wake atmosphere and style of the game.

Imo Project offset is the best of the bunch, followed closely by Crysis. I don't like the washed out style Alan Wake has.
