Given the serious props Rage is getting in the graphics department, I have to wonder how it'll stack up to the sequel to the one game that has pwned everything else in graphics thus far, this gen.

I'm leaning more toward Rage at this point. I am not a fan of what Crytek has done with regard to the levels and settings of Crysis 2, I personally dislike the overall look for the most part, at least of what I have seen so far. I want me some jungles. :(

There's this place called Central Park. Hint, it's going to be in Crysis 2.

Crysis 2 is certainly the more technically proficient of the two, if that is your kind of thing.

I think in the end,when its all set and done and when Crysis 2 is finished and polished its going to be totally dominant when it comes to graphics.It will crush Crysis 1.

Doesn't change the fact that a good part of the game will be taking place in the city. None of you are going to change my mind about this, I simply prefer the jungles. :P

Rage on PC won't be very different from console. Dev already mentioned this.

I'm going to mod Crysis 2 to hell and back too probably. If Crysis 1 is any indication, the overall texture quality won't quite be up to par.

The problem with RAGE is that everything is pretty much baked in, which means you can't really improve the overall graphics with a few tweaks like you could in Crysis. You also can't make texture mods, unless people want to start releasing 25GB files on the internet.

I'm just guessing here, though. It could be different in the end.

RAGE is certainly looking interesting,but so far my money is on Crysis 2,at least in terms of technical proficiency.

I think that RAGE will look a lot better when we can actually play it. I'm not sure about Crysis 2 however.

Remember the Cinematic mod for half life 2, 10gb download 20gb install.

Well its kinda complicated. Lets say that rage runs and looks like that on consoles. Since it runs with 60 fps on consoles it will run and perfom much better on pc without any super rigs. Also a bigger installation size. On crysis, i have not seen any pc footage, so far the console version looks medium detail. I have heard rumors that the 3d anouncement trailer was realtime on the pc. Here i have to add i was not impressed by the poly quality or the texture detail, it just look a bit darker which does not necessary mean dynamic shadows. Also i have seen a terrible stutter lagging footage suposelly from the pc version in crysis 2 tv. Which looked EXACTLY like the console version. So i cant really make up my mind.

He said "Rage will be console focused" Now crytek does not have to say the same to realize its console focused ;) Crytek said that all versions will be the same and the pc version will simply have better graphics.

It'll be interesting. Rage is all about baking tremendous detail into the megatextures, while Crysis is all about doing things in real-time and throwing in every possible technique in the book.
