So looking to the future, what will Codename Kingdoms look like?

I don't think Kingdoms will look that special.

It's made by Crytek but Crytek only because they aquired or opened a new studio (in Hungary I think).

It could be a very good and exciting game, but as it seems to be "experimental" or at least somewhat original I doubt they will pull off another graphics king. Plus as I said it's being made by an external studio basically and I think (and hope) they're concentrating on story, atmosphere and gameplay more than graphics.

Or am I babbling here, has Yevat hinted at Kingdoms being top notch graphically?


He doesn't know how to make a game that isn't top notch graphically. You really think he isn't going to try to blow everyone away with the second appearance of CryEngine 3 on consoles. Especially an exclusive?

Not a big fan of 1st person shooters so I highly doubt that I ever will play Crysis 2 or Codename Kingdoms.


Codename Kingdoms is not a FPS

Does anyone even know what codename : Kingdoms is then? 

And cryengine 3 isn't doing anything that unreal engine didn't or can't. Both of these engine(unreal, especially) is very well optimised for the 360 and Unreal can actually make games run at 720p on the 360 without the need for AA as it doesn't exactly require it.

This isn't pushing the console to its limit(by sacrificing AA, resolution and frame-rate) for getting better graphics, its merely using resources in a different way, like how DA Origins on the PS3 was. It looked better but performed worse and it would be a joke to call it the better version just based on the graphics.

So, I still think Gears 3 will end up being the better product utilising more of the 360 then crysis 2. No need to insult unreal engine 3 because its so easy to develop for that other devs just use it(even Bioware lol).

What does your thread title have to do with your post?

 

Crysis 2 is now the future for 360 owners (I certainly hope not as I have zero intention of ever getting it) or Kingdoms the future? Are you making a statement on how good it looks?

 You don't want kingdoms and you have no clue what it is about.  Yes it about the graphics and the future of it's potential.

i tell u how the ps3 owners future look like :D

Uncharted 3 2011 graphic awards = TRUE

 

LOL at u people celebrating that u ALMOST matched uncharted 2, 2 years after.. JUST IN TIME FOR THE SEQUEL LOL

ahahaha you guys really need to ask more from your first party back at Microsoft. stop using crappy engines that clearly dont satisfy you visually. epic fail ahahahahaha

This is sad.

Even if it is pointless and sad devotion  , it still has some truth to it as obviously no one has tried to maximize the abilities of the 360 until Crysis. We do need to complain and expect more out of Microsoft and third and second part developers. No wonder there is no rush to make new consoles if most games are still not maximizing the full graphcs potential of the 360 and the PS3.

Gears 3 should look better then Crysis 2.  If it doesn't look better it a bit of disappointmet since Epic games has been working on the 360 for a long time a lot longer then most other 3rd party developers.

I'm not sure what your trying to say since Crysis 2 is an absolutely gorgeous game, its up there with the best of the best.

Yeah, the future is hipping multiplatform games when your console doesn't have the least hope of first party exclusives.



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:
