Will next gen consoles look better than Crysis?

I think the three will achieve better graphics, even if it's just slightly better.

Why? Because the PC hardware needed to achieve that kind of visuals is (relatively) cheap by now. And it's even more feasible when you consider that all three consoles will be released in two years from now.

You think a $500 GPU is cheap? Because that's what's needed to run this quality with playable framerates.

Let's say we're aiming for 1920x1080 with 4xAA (I think 2xAA is enough at that res, but that's just me... I'm blind) and 30 frames (playable as long as it's stable). A $289 Radeon HD5850 can make it. I know the ideal is 60 fps, but most console gamers are ok with 30... and many say that they don't notice framerate drops or that they can't tell the difference between 30 and 60...

Also, I said relatively.

I agree it's relatively cheap, I was just playing with you a lil.

And I agree about 2xAA and 30fps being perfectly enough to run a game smoothly and look good enough.

But... a HD 5850 is not enough to run what I meant, namely a modded Crisis that makes it look as beautiful as the screens in the OP.
