but i think .. hmm yah there is some framerate drop but not that much its barely noticeable.


From that short video you can't tell if there is framerate drop or not but you can clearly see the 360 version is crisper and better looking. The PS3 version isn't too far behind but its just a little blurry for some reason.

Interesting. I got this email from my mate just yesterday. Did IGN base their review on the poor PS3 demo. Seems other sites are not agreeing with IGN. I guess Lens of Truth is not related to frame rate? Maybe....

 

Seems like in the retail version of Crysis 2, the PS3 has better graphics than the 360.
 
 
Odd considering the PS3 demo of Crysis 2 was far worse than the 360 and even at a lower res.  Wonder why they released such a poor demo on the PS3?

One more time. Click the link below for a detailed description of how the game was reviewed.

No reputable site would ever review a games performance off a demo. If you disagree with the review and can support your opinion that's totally fair. Just don't discredit the review/reviewer by flat out making shit up or supposing the absurd.

I really wish I could get a copy for the ps3 and 360 so I could figure it for myself. I might just have to rent the game for both systems to find out for myself and not base it on somebody else. Then I could compare it to Killzone 3 . If Crysis looks as good or better than KZ3 than I hope other developers attempt to up the anti of the graphics. Graphics are not the most important, but every guy likes a perfect 10 babe over an 8. The same goes with games.


I was going around the site claiming Crysis 2 wasn't all that impessive a couple months back and have claimed multiple times that Killzone 3 is the best game graphics wise I've ever played.

After playing Crysis 2 today that changed.  It's definatley the best looking console game.

My point is to really see if there is a difference between the PS3 and 360 versions so that I will be glad I did not suport a company that continues the trend of making PS3 versions of games inferior and so I can make my own opinion and not base it on anothers.You may be correct, but I want to know with my own eyes.

Maybe at this point you should blame it on Sony for not making the PS3 easier to program for instead of blaming it on almost every studio. Studios are out to make money, not to spend an extra 2-3 months programming for the PS3 so it maximizes it and looks a little better.

unless ign is right and the ps3 version is that much worse, it doesnt even compare to killzone 3, not even close.

dont get me wrong it looks amazing but (especially the lighting) KZ just has so much stuff going on and still runs smooth and looks top notch throughout. even ignoring the slight framerate issues of crysis (which is easy, its not too bad) it doesnt compare to KZ3.

i wonder who this reviewer is and if he has some kind of agenda.

but anyway, going of lense of truth, the versions look basically the same (pros and cons to each).

and i will be waiting on digital foundries review.

i also hate how ign, has given xbox versions of games higher scores (when they perform better), but they dont do it to ps3 versions that are better. but like most of use here, i havent taken ign seriously for years now. they are idiots, about everything

Well then the PS3 version of Crysis 2 must not compare to the 360 version because the 360 version of Crysis 2 looks better than Killzone 3. I compared them both side by side today at my friends house and all 4 of us unanimously agreed Crysis 2 looks better....significantly better.

well ign is the only site so far that thinks crysis looks significantly better on xbox, not even lense of truth, who are wayyy more reputable.

so im calling bs on ign's part

I didn't say it looked significantly better because A. I haven't seen it on PS3 and B. I doubt it does, but when you say Crysis 2 isn't even close graphically to KZ3 (which is bullshit) and you have played the PS3 version then I have to put 2 and 2 together and say that you have a bias or the PS3 version must be alot worse than the 360 version because Crysis 2 easily holds its own against Killzone 3. I think it looks better but thats an opinion.

They both look similar enough that I wouldn't care either way which console I'm playing it on, if graphics are that important down to the tiniest detail then why are 4 of the top 5 HIGHEST SELLING GAMES OF ALL-TIME from the original NES and Black and White screen Gameboy?  Duck Hunt and Tetris make Call Of Duty Black Ops' sales look like Mass Effect 2 on ps3.  But since we're debating it, lets raise a glass of Champagne to the X360 for yet another victory!  IGN is the Truth.

to be fair pretty much all publications are saying the 360 version looks better.

And after playing Crysis on 360 today there's no more debate on whether the 360 can handle PS3 exclusive level graphics.  Crysis easily looks as good or better than Killzone, Uncharted, or God of War.  And I wasn't even that impressed or excited with video I had seen but after playing it its freaking gorgeous.

You know its about time developers started getting their gear in ass and getting PS3 like graphics onto the 360...We've been waiting too damn long!

Preach it, brother!
