Agreed.

3. Resident Evil 5

Louis Bedigian: Nearly four years after first experiencing the genre-defining gameplay of Resident Evil 4, Capcom will release the next chapter in their leading survival/horror franchise. Based largely on the last game's mechanics, Resident Evil 5 has yet to show signs of innovation. But the larger levels, increased number of zombies and insanely realistic visuals (this could be the first game to beat Metal Gear Solid 4) could be everything Capcom needs to deliver another mega-hit.

I would think that you being a hardcore Banjo fan would be the main reason as to why you DON'T speak for everyone.

Why bother asking every living person on earth knows Crysis was and still is and still will be for a while. It seems people are trying to deny it or somthing.

It's actually a pretty dated engine, the upgrades they have done to it is incredible. It actually looks better than Killzone 2 now.

Ok, Crysis has GREAT GRAPHICS. How bout we ignore all that mumbo jumbo like your sig there, and focus on visually appealing games. Ex. Banjo, LBP, Gears of War, Killzone 2 etc.

That's true. It's still a great game though. And the thread absolutely relates to graphics, Crysis just happens to be the pinnacle atm.

Technically speaking, there are obviously better looking games, mostly on the PC.

That said, Nuts and Bolts is pretty damn gorgeous. People rave about other console games like Killzone 2 and Gears of War 2, but I'd say this looks just as good as any of them.

You are wrong.

It was consolites talking about the graphics being the reason it was being hype. You consolites kept trying to say that was the reason we were excited about it (kinda like you are trying to do now), but us hermits kept saying no, we are excite about it because of the gameplay.

it must be hard to render a bear made out of like 12 polygons. look at the makeup of his body, its all hard shapes. his leg is one big rectangle with fur on it. not impressed. the game should be fun, but GOTY is HIGHLY unlikely, with so many big games coming out this year

I think LBP is still the best looking platformer this year imo.

Overall Crysis Warhead though, don't see how anyone can say anything else.
