Gamesradar gave it an 8 and says this about the graphics (sorry if this was already posted):

"Here we are. Crysis 2 has arrived at last. It’s a seminal moment – not due to some monolithic expectation of gameplay, but rather a test of hardware. Hell, the original Crysis still can’t run on the average PC and certainly couldn’t run on PS3 or 360. So how could developer Crytek pull this off? The answer is in CryEngine 3. Whatever they did to optimize the code, it worked. Crysis 2 does run on consoles, and it does so beautifully. We’re calling it now: Crysis 2 is possibly the best-looking console game ever. It’s not leaps and bounds ahead of other graphical heavyweights, but it’s probably just a bit more polished, a bit more detailed… and yet running at a very respectable framerate."

I only posted this because that seems what everyone wants to talk about.  I personally don't care about the "my graphics are better than your graphics!" argument, but let's be fair, I've seen just as many people staunchly defending PS3 exclusive titles as the best as there are those saying Crysis 2 is - so the question should be to ALL: why is it so important that game X "looks the best"?

Regardless, I've heard enough good things about the actual gameplay to persuade me to pick this up afterall!
