So many haters... I think the games looked great, and exactly the same for both consoles.
If they had a side by side comparison it might be a little easier to differentiate the two versions.

If the game was out now with a steady frame rate, then it might have the best graphics/visuals to date.

but at its release/time frame , Killzone 2 will definitely exist.

I played the first far cry and did not enjoy it.  The gun movement was very jerky, and I only stuck with it for 5 missions before giving up.
I hope this one is better because i did like the game but I kept getting killed due to the sloppy gun movement.
I know there are options for inverting it or something, but no matter what I tried I was never comfortable with it.
If your concept of Far Cry 1 is entirely based on the console version of the game, you should know that what you got with it is a completely different game from the PC version.  It was, in my opinion, a steaming pile of poo compared to the PC game.  Hopefully the Far Cry 2 console version will  remain more or less true to its PC counterpart when it is released.

 


yes it was the only version i played and i just never got comfortable with it.

i hope the new one plays as good as it looks and i would wait for the reviews of it.

I love V-sync. Tearing is even worse than lock-ups and playing at sub 15 FPS. I just can't stand tearing.

From my experience console games are totally free from tearing. The devs seem to put a lot of effort to make sure the engine is optimized so that it doesn't occur. In PC-shooters I get it all the time, even on low settings. Thus I love V-sync.


Have you played Gears of War or Bioshock on the XBox360?  Bioshock on the XBox360 actually includes a v-sync option.  It makes the game a little less smooth, but it also eliminates screen-tearing.  It's disabled by default I believe.  A lot of games have screen tearing.  It's more noticeable in some than in others.

Both consoles look to be putting out max power from the video. These kind of games should be done on a PC.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

They should be done on PC. And you will get the better graphics on a $1500 pc not including monitor. I will gladly pay for a 360, the game, and a 42" lcd to play the game on instead of a pc that will have to be upgraded in a year and a half. I have had my 360 for several years and the pc is not drastically ahead(unless very costly). Take your little bit of graphical benefit and enjoy yourself.

KZ2 owns this.

All I want for PC in the near future is Starcraft II, and I think I can play it on my laptop w/ a USB mouse, so I'm set.

UBISOFT VIRAL MARKETERS SPOTTED DOING DAMAGE CONTROL AT VGCHARTZ.COM

I am requesting that everyone forward this email I have received to everyone you know.

Read:

Apparently Ubisoft has decided to employ viral marketers for damage control after this Wii fiasco.

On VGChartz one appeared with thw profile:merkh66

His first post was promoting Ubisoft's FarCry2 as seen here:
http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=28053

Soon after he decided to go to a Nintendo discussion thread speaking out on Ubisoft's latest fiasco in this thread:
http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?start=0&id=28174

What occured next was a futile attempt at trolling the Wii and eventually got in a war of words with poster Bored4life.
At page 8 however everything just fell apart because we now realized that Bored4life strung him all along as seen here.
http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?start=350&id=28174

Please go down to the part where Bored4life goes into detail on how to expose a viral marketer and explains how he did it.I think everyone needs to know about this new fiasco as well as quote Bored4life statements where he exposes him here:Brilliant!
http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/post.php?id=822194
After he ran he then went on to promote Ubisoft's Endwars in another thread here:
http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=28249


I think this is a lesson that needs to be learnt.
Why do Ubisoft insist on this ****?

I think it looks good but no where near best ever. The realism is good as well.
