As goofy as that may sound (at least according to the current reviews) such is true. Crysis 2 (right now) is called technically sound a nd a masterpiece, but not the pinnacle of visuals on consoles mentioned of PS3 1st party titles (or Gears of War 2 for that matter either).


Where do you get your info from? From the reviews from the minor websites out there? The review embargo doesn't lift till 5pm EST.

Reviews aren't out yet. Any review out right now is from a minor website looking for hits. Embargo doesn't get lifted for 8 hours.

Edit: By King do you mean graphics?

A quick look at N4G. They have a few.

You may be correct or not but we'll find out this evening when the reviews from the "big boys" come out. I have a feeling at least a couple will be calling it the new console graphics king.

Indeed a couple will be calling it that, but GameReactor was called down to Crytek and played the full game. They have a very long review on their site. They are the first ones to have reviewed it according to the cheif editor, something they are very proud over.

I also dare say GR is the scandanvias IGN lol.

Also, by king I mean graphics indeed. The cheif editor who reviewed the game and gave it a 9/10 said that the graphics of Uncharted 2 is still the best on consoles and that he wasn't going to comment on Gears of War 2 on the 360 without playing them side by side, thus Crysis 2 is no console graphics king (ACCORDING TO THEM). I have no doubt people will praise it mainly because.. its Crysis. I just hope a lot won't mix the versions, saying that Crysis 2 is the best looking game EVAHH but maybe they are talking about the PC and not the console versions. Anyhow, lets wait and see ^_^.

CGI:
"though again, a sub 1280x720p resolution for PS3 would instantly mean it loses here"

Err. Really? Why so?

360 may end up looking sharper but the ign score for grafix is laughable they scored the ps3 one a full point down

disapointed in the AI running in circles and headbutting walls literally

He's right, there are a few.

Oh yeah.. a few, means like 5 out of 20? Didn't Killzone 3 have like roughly 70-80% claiming it to be the next king?
