And I gave props to UC2's scenery, but the rest of the game is behind Crysis 2 therefore Crysis 2 is just more impressive. Scenery is not the only thing that matters. Character models, animations, explosions, particle effects (UC2 has none), water and water effects (UC2 barely  has any water effects), and physics. I assume you haven't played Crysis 2 yet but if you do you will see what I'm talking about.

In Uncharted 2's case, animation is still very much ahead of Crysis 2 (I don't think there's a game yet that touches Uncharted 2 in this area). Also, Uncharted 2 has particle effects (quite a bit in fact), but I would agree not to the degree of Crysis 2. Lastly,  water effects (yes, Uncharted 2 has that), physics (it has in spades), and scenery all still compare quite nicely to today's games (including Crysis 2 - and this is from a guy who still thinks Killzone 2 & 3 look better than Uncharted 2).

The water effects are NOT EVEN CLOSE. I compared them side by side yesterday. Go find some water in Uncharted 2 and shoot it. The only thing that happens is a pixelated splash. Its not even close.

By animations I mean character movement animations and ragdoll animations. UC2 has it but once again its not on the level of Crysis 2 but I guess we'll agree to disagree.
