BS? What BS? The question was "could the PS3 run Crysis on say low setting's"? That's LOW SETTINGS. And the DF article sums up: "CryTek's technical showcase on console is an intriguing mix of sub-medium-level settings for some elements, all the way up to "very high" in others." Sounds like that's somewhat better than LOW settings, so where's the BS?

YOU - "They have the Crysis 2 engine running on PS3 and 360, and it looks great, better than Crysis 1 engine"


That's the BS. The Cryengine 2 on consoles has not matched Crysis 1 graphics, let alone surpassed them.

 

Well, does the Cryengine 3 on console look better than Crysis 1- ON LOW SETTINGS ?? THAT WAS THE QUESTION! Have you tried Crysis ! on LOW SETTINGS, pretty sad. Hell, I think Farcry2 on PS3 looked better than Crysis 1,on low, med and maybe even some high settings. I haven't played Crysis in a few years, I don't think it's the ultimate graphically now any way, there's many new game engines out today that look great, and have some better features. Was the snow in Uncharted 2 better than in Crysis? Wasn't the water in Uncharted 1 much more advanced than in Crysis? (You actually went upstream, up waterfalls, it wasn't flat). I think they could duplicate a Crysis map in quite a few other engines, even Uncharted2's. Any way, isn't fun to argue?

The Far Cry 2 comment is laughable, that game is gimped on consoles, Crysis on a combination of medium and high settings is better. And yes some engines have a few better features, but overall, nothing on the market is as technically superior (not yet at least; maybe when developers adopt the entire feature set of the DX11 API). 

Uncharted is a linear closed world game; what makes you think that engine could handle the entire island that Crysis takes place on? Maybe the underground levels could be done; but thats not what Crysis is about. When you talk about Crysis, you are talking about the island.
