If you say so it must be true. Hermits should start burning Crysis and Empire: Total War now.

This is an exaggeration. Crysis "completely obliterates" Super Mario Bros. It does not completely obliterate Uncharted 2. People need to lay off of the hyperbole around here.

People said the same about Uncharted 1, Gears of War, MGS4, GT5: Prologue etc etc, and look what happened - they got bettered. I remember Ubisoft saying that GRAW 1 used 80% of the 360's power, and GRAW 1 stopped being benchmark material after just 6 months. Point is, graphics will always get better, and developers will always find ways of better using the consoles power.

Do it, Uncharted has much greater depth in its details and far better animation though.

Actually it does. Crysis is not a linear TPS. It is a open world FPS with alot of under the hood features.

If I upgrade my PC next year Crysis Ultimate or w/e will be my first purchase and possible Crysis 2 since I doubt it will be a huge improvement.

I agree with TC only if hes talking about console games but if you include the pc, crysis wins by default.

Yeah I agree, Crysis is not Pixar but it is unbeaten in the world of games.

shows that 2006's geforce 8800s still eats it for breakfast? uncharted does look great but there have been many better looking pc games come out years ago. ps3/x360 are pretty much equal.

Actually there was an artice before Crysis released that said basically that the amount of shader Crytek had to write rivals a pixar movie, doesn't mean it looks like one, because shaders are only one part of game graphics as a whole.

Why Pixar toy graphics? Try Transformers movie trailiers. http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/38145/135/ "Watch out, Larrabee: Radeon 4800 supports a 100% ray-traced pipeline" "All those Transformers teaser trailers were rendered on a GPU and - more importantly - directed in real-time"

Nearly everytime someone talks about this game it's about graphics. Same thing with Crysis. I think everybody knows already those two have amazing graphics.

Eh, it has the most overrated graphics I've seen, sure it looks good but certainly not leaps and bounds ahead of other upcoming games like some people would like you to believe. Given the ugly artstyle it's actually pretty low on my list of best looking games.

Im still seeing a small upgrade here, no more of an upgrade then say halo odst offers. But im going off the cow defition of that since i believe odst has quite a few upgrades not large but small and they tend to commuilate...but it fits my purpose here to use the cow defition since i just dont see a major upgrade over uncharted 1.

lol wut?

"depth in detail" - Crysis' models are rendered with much more polys. They are way more detailed and have much higher resolution textures, normal maping, specular maps etc. Crysis on its highest settings is waay more detailed.

"animation" - lol ok but animation is hardly ground breaking is it? I mean, its pretty much down to the motion capture studio that you use.

Actually, Uncharted's animation uses more keyframes than most other AAA games, which makes it's more fluid. Still, it's not that obvious.

Oh yeah, I agree its outstanding but, its not something TC can really use to demonstrate teh powah of the PS3, its more to do with the high production values of the developer.

No, it's technically more easy to do on PS3, since animation can be offloaded to the SPE's. Killzone 2 did it too.
