Crysis 2 is pretty much unmatched in terms of Tessellation. There are many better looking games out there but the geometry in that game is full of DX11 crap.
I think it's obvious that Batman Arkham Knight demonstrated amazing particle effects at e3, so that is my guess.

crysis 3 uses almost no tessellation
Yeah you're right I meant Crysis 2 :s
I dunno how Crytek fucked up the tessellation in Crysis 3 though... You can barely notice it but it takes a huge performance hit.
Remember when Oblivion was one of the first games to use parallax mapping, then you got past the first dungeon and it was never used again, I was so disappoint :(.
screw all those fancy-dancy effects like draw distance and frames per second, sw has spoken and resolution is king... because something that does not affect gameplay for the better in any way is what is most important.
Shadows - Deffo Crysis 3 or Metro Last Light, That's one of the area's where PC will always win as more processing power and memory for bigger and higher quality shadow maps.
Particles are a tie between the new Killer Instinct and Infamous: SS, probably. And I'd say tessellation is probably used more liberally in Crysis 2 than any other game I've ever seen.

it takes a near 0% performance hit in c3(on nvidia at least) because there is very little tessellation

Why so whiney? Noone said it was a good idea to sacrifice draw distance and on PC, you don't have to.
Modded Crysis 2 has some pretty nice tessellation:
And Crysis 3 has some of the best particle effects. It has volumetric fog and smoke that casts shadows and is affected by simulated wind and even explosions
Lighting - Crysis 3 (>2014 and consoles still can't do real-time GI).
Character Models - Crysis 3/BF4/KZSF/MLL.
Textures - lots of new games have amazing textures, none seem to be consistent, though. But just some I had in mind: Crysis 3/BF4 (especially the ones used on character models, even the specular maps for faces are 2048x2048)/KZSF has some pretty good, too/MLL.
@faizan_faizan: I feel like Metro didn't have the best character models, but besides that I agree. Definitely Crysis 3 or BF4 for lighting, BF4 is using real time radiosity, and it's beatiful, but Crysis 3 is pretty great too.

Didn't they go with the same BF3/Mirror's Edge lighting technique i.e lightmaps using Beast? Besides, the lights from the flashlights don't seem to have light bounces. I'm assuming it's from sun only like Crysis 2. It's baked as hell so it's hard to notice anyway.

That's not tessellation, that's parallax occlusion mapping.

It's tessellation + displacement mapping which is a much more efficient and better looking technique than POM

It's not tessellation and if you read Cryteks white papers on CryEngine 3 they also say they do not use tessellation at all on there new POM technique.

cryengine doesnt support tessellation at all on terrain does it? at least not in currently available iterations? sad that the herms here dont even know wtf tessellation is

It's easy to mix up with POM, especially on the ground when it's hard to look at it from a flat angle to see that there's no actual depth like tessellation has.
scatteh was right, some of my pictures show POM. My mistake.
I noticed some tessellation in brick walls and some objects, in the rubble for example as well as the water of course.
