Can we have a new thread when said Digital Foundry comparison is released?
It's pretty boring when you are a PC gamer and all everyone is doing is cheerleading their console of choice.

Best looking console game confirmed?

I wouldn't mind seeing the DX9 vs DX11 argument dying as well since it's the same re-hashed retorts from both sides (and I believe there is already a DX11 patch thread).
Did you not see the comparison shots creeping in?

Well, in my opinion, KZ3 was the best looking console game when it came out, but personally I think this has it beat now.
Ehh.
Ehh.

Sure, but that's to be expected with multiplatform releases, especially as high profile as Crysis 2. It's not like that's all that's being talked about.
I am for a separate comparison thread, however.

Yep, day one 360 version for me also based off of that video and I normally buy PS3 versions for multi-plats, very smooth frame rate and crisp, I'll double dip and grab the PC version further down the road off steam, I will say though that PS3 version is not looking as bad as I initially thought and certainly not terrible of that it is your only choice.

Not too bad, really.
EDIT: PS3 has a higher FOV.
Ehh, PS3 version looks a lot more washed out.

That resolution difference is pretty glaring. If it's legit that's a shame.

He meant to say that it has pre-baked GI (like 99.99% of console games), while Crysis 2 doesn't.
I think it shows up more in screens than it will in motion. The resolution difference between the versions is a lot smaller than it was in either Red Dead or GTA4 and it doesn't have a different type of AA. I can't think of any other multiplatfrom games where the PS3 version, if it had a resolution difference, that's been so close.G_Berry said:
The wider FoV on the PS3 version is a bit weird, though. Don't console games usually have a lower FoV to limit the amount on screen? It seems odd that, if they were going for parity, they would have different FoVs between the console versions.
This is in response to something from yesterday:
I use a PC monitor for my console games, so setting the RGB range to full and enabling super white makes it better. I used to have Vizio HDTV. Like my current monitor, the IQ on my HDTV was better when set to full. Limited had less contast and looked washed out.
I guess I assumed it was universal. My bad.

Two things:dejan said:
1) That scene looks much cooler with the lights blown out (compared to how they showed it last year)
2) why the fuck is current gen Splinter Cell running on Unreal 2.5 when consoles are capable of lighting environments and characters like this?

man.
MAN.
My friend just called telling me he had something cool to show me.
I was just spoiled that central station chapter (and the beginning to the chapter after that) on a 360.
Not a huge spoiler, mind you; that's the same segment demoed at E3 2010 so you've probably seen it already anyway.
For anyone calling BS, i can certify that youtube vid is genuine X360 footage, looks every bit as good as the E3 2010 demo - from what i remember at least - and downright incredible.
Might very well be the best looking console game i've laid eyes upon.
Friend said the game gets exponentially better as you progress and you shouldn't let the rather underwhelming initial chapters fool you. It takes very long to take off; that chapter in particular is very far into the game; considering the end is not in sight he believes SP campaign could be very long too.
More importantly, he even went as far as claiming it's the best fps he has played this gen and to tell you the truth, after seeing parts of it, i don't even think he's getting carried away.
Seeing the game demoed by someone who knows what he's doing you realize how different Crysis 2 is. The amount of possibilities and sheer badassery make it something else.

Well even the PS3 version looks ok. Gives me hope now that the PC version should be pretty solid looking. Crysis was one of my favorite SP fps in years.

I don't like calling a game the best on consoles before I play it myself.
Gamefly should be sending it soon, then I'll judge for myself.

If the consoles don't have GI, why does the Real-time Diffuse Global Illumination in CryENGINE 3 presentation on Crytek's site say that they do (slides 35 - 39)?
It gets into specifics, such that the consoles refresh the GI once every 5 frames. Slide 39 says their GI is console-friendly.
