Just because Crysis was the best looking game this gen so far, this does not mean that Crysis 2 will be the best looking CONSOLE game this gen. Given that we have seen precious little full HD footage (if any?) I am amazed that so many are jumping on the bandwagon and claiming the new console graphics king.

I predict the game will look stellar on the PC and good on the consoles... but some of you are expecting far far too much.

I'm not hype about Crusis 2. I'm just happy that we can play it on the console.

I'm more excited to see how the game plays, since I've actually played Crysis and enjoyed it quite a lot, like most of the people who aren't hyping it just for graphics.

But it also doesn't mean it won't be a console graphics king, based on pedigree it has a good chance wouldn't you say?

i'm just looking forward to the gameplay.

But TC isn't your complaint the same situation as KZ 2. People were hyped for even worse reasons. I never expected it would be bad, but given the last game on the PS2, I was confused as to why it was getting hyped so hard and graphics seemed the only reason pre-release for the hype.

Crysis 2 is gonna have great graphics and great gameplay, the first one is a really good game. Don't know about graphics king, but if any multiplat dev can do it, it's Crytek, so it will be interesting to see how this turns out.

But honestly, I couldn't care less about graphics king. As long as a game looks good enough to meet its needs then its good enough for me. I still don't understand why people say Batman AA isn't a good looking game.

I think its rightfully hyped. I mean look at the previous game crytek has come out with, all stellar games. Will be playing on pc, but its a good thing that its on consoles so people can understand why hermits said crysis was so good both graphically and gameplay wise instead of pretending they played the game.

I prefer to wait until the game is actually out. If I think it's as good as Crytek thinks it is, then I'll be the one doing the hyping not them.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's the best looking console and PC game when it's released. As long as the gameplay is built upon from the first (ie, use of nanosuit etc), i'm gonna be one happy camper.

It's just lemmings desperate attempt to prove PS3 and xbox360 are equal or even more rediclious that xbox360 is more powerful. Whenever you see a so-called hardcore "herment" taking a feirce argument stance that this game will somehow be console graphics king and or better on 360 and Gfx king...you know they are just desperate lemmings being fakeboys.

Simple facts:

PS3 is more powerful than xbox360, it has higher potential and they are NOT the same. People arguing that they are the same are just xbox fanboys who can't stand the turth. If Crytek dose somehow manage to push the PS3 above it's other console exclusives the same will not be true for xbox360 because xbox360 can't do the PS3 top exclusives in the first place becaue it dosen't have the hardware that help make those PS3 exclusives.

The same explanation as to why MGSIV beat Crysis:Warhead in technical graphics. [spoiler] Starts with a "Conspirac" and ends with a "y". [/spoiler]

It's not like Crytek are starting from scratch. They already have their engine in place and proper optimization just has to be done.

Crysis = CryEngine 2

Crysis 2 = CryEngine 3

So we already know the visuals will be an upgrade.

*EDIT* If you meant for consoles, then yeah I also believe people are hyping them up way too high. But for the PC it should look great.

Crytek has the most advanced engine on the market, their past games have been steller, and Crysis 2 is going to be multiplat, so everybody can play it. Why wouldn't people be hyped?

Have you ever played Far Cry 1? The best thing about that game was the open world nonlinear shooter gameplay. The story was laughable, but endearing, and the graphics were great, but Half Life 2 and Doom 3 looked just as good for what they did. Far Cry sold on it's gameplay, and people kept replaying it because of its gameplay.

Crysis, on the other hand was undisputed graphics king when it came out, but it also incorporated a much better story and cinematic qualities, while maintaining much of what made far cry special, gameplay wise.

I don't think you know what you are talking about.

I predict loads of hype for this game before it comes out then load of threads after it comes out with people moaning they dont like this game and why have it been hyped.

It wouldn't surprise me that some of the people hyping the game will be the same people moaning about it after its out because surprise surprise it wont meet the ridiculous hype.

I think it's potential for graphics king on consoles is being WAY overhyped. I'm more looking forward to the fact that it will obviously be a great looking and great playing game, and those of us who prefer/can only game on consoles are in for a treat.

Crysis 2 will be the best looking game ever, and you can sig me on that and claim ownage for the rest of this gen. Ofcourse it will look much, much better on the PC but knowing what Crytek is capable of, this game will not disappoint console-fans either. Crysis 2 is built around each platform respectively so all power available will be put to use. Crytek knows how to utilize hardware, and all Spus in the cell is put to full work load according to Cevat.

I'm fully aware that Cows just wished this abomination of a game never existed. But my advice to you is to just go out buy Crysis 2 for your PS3 and enjoy it. Sitting around bickering like old bi*ches all day and you will truly miss out on something spectacular coming your way.

How will Lems claim ownage ? Unless somehow the 360 version beats out the PC version which has a next to none chance of happening.

Alan Wake says hi... It's even got it's own thread, go take a look! Anyways, Crysis 1 had great gameplay, jsut poor objectives, usually being "go here, now here, now here...", where as this taking place in a city will improve that original problem.

I would love the two versions to be both absolutely stunning and nearly identical. The arguments about which pixel looks better in which angle from which light has always been an amusingly ridiculous one. .. In terms of the actual game Crysis was just a great game to play. I didnt play it on Very High or anything, rather with a medium plus mods combination and even though it still looked amazing it was the shooting and gameplay that made it worth coming back to play. If there is any reason to be hyped for Crysis 2 its for the possibility of that gameplay being expanded and presented on a new canvas.

The hype is more due to ownage on ps3 fanboys than about the game itself...which speaks volumes about this board. Sad and pathetic.

Even though the PC version will support more technical features, Hermits will hate the game for being dumbed down to meet console specs.

Cows will hate the game because it will burst the Sony propaganda bubble once and for all.

Lemmings will love the game for the same reason Cows hate the game.

A lot of haters will buy the game nevertheless.

It reminds me a lot of Infamous.. It has potential to look great, but is ultimately crapped on by the fact that it's on a console. Unlike Infamous though, Crysis 2 is also and mainly a PC title, therefore it will look grand on my PC. :P

i do not doubt it... the PC version will look amazing. It's just funny that so many 360 owners declared Crysis 2 the new graphics king on consoles, simply because it was called Crysis
