Because it looks fantastic in every way, including gameplay.





Just wow. Possibly and probably the best looking game on consoles.

did'nt look wow to me. Looks just like any other FPS. The third video was the only one that looked half way impressive,but to call it the best looking game on consoles is just simply not true.

How do you know what I prefer. I have all 3 systems bye the way. It's fine if your hyped and excited about it,but I simply don't get it. What looks good to one person,does'nt look good to another.

Stop dodging.

Put your KZ3 video there (or whichever shooter you think is mindblowing) beside one of those Crysis 2 videos above and we'll compare.



I'm interested in it but not excited. I don't get what you're saying that people are hyping it like the second coming. in the contrary, The game got heavily bashed on forums because of it's multiplayer demo.

I don't mean to butt in, but that same argument could be said of strong 360 supporters who seem to suddenly care so much for this game to top PS3 exclusive titles.

Everyone should wait till release day, the bickering back and fourth is useless (and because of past blunders like the Alan Wake fiasco and Mass Effect 2), people should be more reserved before being "sure" of what's going to look the best on consoles.

My piece - it looks impressive enough from where I'm sitting. No, it doesn't impress me as much as some top tier 360 & PS3 exclusives, but what's been shown is no doubt, top notch. Definitely the best looking multiformat title I've seen. Really, that's all it needs.

Bold: indeed. I admit, I agree. But do you realize that you're one of very few PS3 fans who even admit Crysis looks impressive? Most Sony fans are "meh", and that's just sad to see.

But CGI, you don't have to be afraid of saying that Crysis 2 looks better than any X360 exclusive.

KZ2&3 and Uncharted 2 is debatable, I'll happily give that, but Crysis 2 graphics definitely slays Gears 2.

I just played uncharted 2 nepal, I have to say Uncharted 2 looks better. Much much better and I can easily say there are some portions of Castlevania that look better too.


Congratulations on basing your firsthand experience of a game and comparing it to YouTube videos.

Needless to post GoW III Titan fights, that would be unfair. ^^

I'm far from afraid to say what I think (I thought by now, I would have proven that ). Gears of War 2 is still the most impressive game I've seen on the 360 (mind you, like much of the rest of the site, I've yet to play the full game of Crysis 2). Crysis 2 (again, form what I've seen) has some areas that are truly impressive (textures, draw distance, and lighting come to mind). But it lacks what other titles in the genre have (huge set pieces, amount of things taking place on screen, in your face character models).

I'm only judging footage though, so after an extensive good week of gameplay, I'll come back and make a much more judgment of the game.

Yes,when the game comes out someone should make a crysis 2 impressions thread. Let's all agree on that.
