Until we have (practically) limitless processing power all computer graphics (realtime or pre-rendered) will not be able to achieve photorealism ...

By the end of 2010, a PC using two or three graphics cards hooked up using SLi or Crossfire will probably be close to the quality of pre-rendered movies of 2000 to 2005 at high resolutions (obviously using rasterization); in 2015 a bleeding edge PC will probably be close to the quality of pre-rendered movies of 2005 to 2010 at high resolutions using ray-tracing.

Well, Crysis already has graphics better than several CG Movies from 2000-2005.

 

If you're playing Crisis at its maximum quality it does appear very similar to pre-rendered movies from 2000/2001 like Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within; there are still areas where it is not quite as nice as those movies though, and it takes an insanely powerful PC to get that close.

 

not really, low-medium resoution + very high with a 9600GT or above. Not that high-end of a PC.

 

Crysis WarHead will be better though due to the optimized engine.
