They compare Killzone 2's graphics to it.

They compare Uncharted 2's graphics to it.

Sometimes some unlucky few compare Halo Reach's graphics to it.

They really should take into account that they are comparing their half a year old, or yet unreleased hyped game, to a three years old game.

There will be no crysis killer this gen among consoles, they dont have the hardware, It may happen if the all mighty cell is unlocked and unleashes the POWER!!!:roll: Almost every game I have for ps3 is only 720p, 1080p dosent even seem to be the norm this gen.

How much did that PC in your signature cost? You should really take into account that a now 2 year old game looks better than pretty much any other game that runs on that PC, however much it cost. Oh the thing that 2 year old game is running on costs 300 dollars and has a blu-ray drive and optical audio out.

Because PS3 fans are obsessed with having the best gfx. Which is ironic since PS2 fans didn't care. Now most old PS2 fans must be Wii fans.

I don't recall any comparisons with Reach.

because its the graphics king. Until it's kingdom is overtaken (by Crysis2), every game will be compared to it in the graphics department.

I was talking about PS3 games, hence why I quoted Advid's post.

Well, regardless of how much my rig cost, the point is I was able to afford it without cutting off a limb or selling one third my body's blood supply. If I am capable of purchasing a Ferrari without bearing significant opportunity cost, why not?

*shudders* I seriously HATE the look of 720p stretched out on a 1080p display.

And in general I'm not too fond of anything sub-1080p.

Me? I've really known Crysis only since last November. I listened to all the crap when it was released and was convinced it was really crap. Then, I played the demo last November and found out I really liked the game. That's the last time I listen to fanboys.

Now those threads sound good.

The thing is, depending on how consolized Crysis 2 is, there could be legitimate reasons why Crysis would look better than Crysis 2.

This is most likely the case, because PCs that can play Crysis must cost upwards of $2000...:P
