@MEDzZ3RO Killzone looks good, yeah but we're talking about the power of the engines, pre-baked is a good replacement, but there's only 1 engine with the power to put real-time illumination, Cryengine. Im sure PS3 could not run KZ3 if the game was based on Real-time lighting. But as i said, everything in Killzone is pre-baked, reflections, particles and shaders, while on Crysis everything is on real time, and it actually take more resources.
@dudman89 its syncs the frames per second to the refresh rate of your monitor, When you have a 60 heart monitor it cant show you more fps then 60, so the framerate stocks at 60, when you have a 120 heart monitor it stocks your framerate at 120 (if your gfx will reach 120 fps :D)
@OZORxORON Right, but the only way games leak is from developers. Illegal downloads may exist but getting online (especially with steam) needs a key to work (a clean key).
@hosrom Not to the point where i significantly effects sales. Besides Microsoft and Sony ban consoles from connecting to the internet, can brick consoles if they detect alien hardware and also band accounts.
@Scar8632 It shows you a extention of Alcatraz's injuries later, one of them being ruptured lungs. With ruptured lungs, I don't think it's possible to talk
Furthermore, Nanosuit 1 has 3 modes and Nanosuit 2.0 had only Armor mode(combined with Strength) + Cloak. It did not make me feel like a complete badarse rambo killer. The suit was suppose to surpass HALO spartans
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz That's just it, most multiplats are 360 ports. With optimization multi plats look better on PS3 (ref: FF XIII and Crysis 2). The 360 version has too much texture blur and on the subject of resolution the 360 upscales to 1080p, the PS3 plays compatible games without upscaling. The reason PS3 gets ports is because porting from PC/360 to one another takes days but takes months to do so on PS3. It saves money time and effort. Exclusives are representational of a systems abilities
@TheSkizsus I thought that the whole "you're not Prophet" thing added a moderate amount of suspense for a while. But yeah I guess the consoles aren't really as powerful as a high-end PC. The virus thing was also kinda boring but wasn't the story linear in the first game or no? I didn't play the original Crysis. I'm about to though, as soon as I get my new PC.
One of my fave FPS's and I've played many for sure. I actually prefer the first half to the second half as the Ceph aren't as fun to fight as the CELL but it was still great for the second half. Wish the A.I was better though. I also really dislike how the game is very messy looking, there's just too much going on at once but that doesn't really effect me too much. The multiplayer was absolute crap but I don't really care as I said, this is one of my fave FPS's. 9.5/10 for me.
@jubblehose123 It should handle it no problem. U didn't mention what is the screen size and resolution. If it's 1080p probably U go for the high/medium not ultra settings.
@Originefx i never bashed crysis i got it and i love it,i'm bashing the genre enough fps already,how does the pc provide better experience when it has so few games?and i want u to post ur mortal kombat comment on a mortal kombat video lets see if they will let u get away with it :D
@bobogej I agree it is a benchmark in graphics but that doesn't make it less of a game. The fact it still has strong gameplay even with these amazing graphics makes it even better. They could have said "well, that looks nice, let's just copy off any generic FPS and sell it" but they didn't, they made a really fun, really epic game.
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz Not a chance, Killzone 3 is a hefty load for the PS3 as it is. Pre-renders were necessary. The engine itself however can do real time rendering as stated by Guerilla. I believe there was a Killzone 2 ad done in that manner. On PC Crysis 2 is very impressive and obviously more technically impressive then on consoles. On consoles however I couldn't disagree more. I like Crysis 2 and Killzone 3 but the jaggies in Crysis 2 is the decider for me were they're concerned on consoles.
@CJ2GAME Im playing Crysis 2 on extreme settings, with a 2 year old i7 920 that costs < €200 and a ati 6950 which cost me €220 2 weeks ago. And its running perfect, Pc gaming is actually booming at the minute btw.
@redeemer777 Varies from TV to TV. I urge you to look at 2 articles on lensoftruth(dot)com. One's called "Crysis 2 retail screenshot comparison" and the other's called "Crysis 2 PS3 vs 360 performance analysis ". Either way both are looking good and running pretty well; they're certainly playable.
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz The Killzone 3 engine is the best engine on consoles. Not enough has been seen of the Mega-Meshes engine to say otherwise. Especially seeing as a game hasn't used it yet and perhaps won't with the "Xbox 720" out 2013. We're straying off subject though. Back on subject, the Crysis 2 demo was running best on 360 but in the retail release graphics look better in the PS3 version. 360 has texture blur and graphical tearing but runs inbetween 2-4 fps more in then the PS3 version.
@Poseidon500 Hmmm i have to agree with you,it wasn't a big improvement from the 1st. It did felt like New york was completely at the brink of a destruction. It wasn't EVEN a Huge Ceph invasion,Crytek only introduce Ceph ground forces and a Pinger!? What about the Huge War machines like the Matrix's Sentiels!? They were inspired by it,Now We play a silent protagonist in the squeal unlike the 1st. it doesn't carry any emotional weight in conversation and voice acting is a little dull
1/ why running bit faster drains energy - oh you call that seed mod ? 2/ why are aliens now red instead of blue and arent cold, energy sucking? 3/ what happend to nomad,psycho and prhophet when all returned back to island. 4/ why I cant destroy enviroment (trees?) 5/ where is interior camera position in car 6/ why when I turn lights on in car, lights are not shining but car is "glowing" 7/ why I cant have laser and scope on one gun? 8/ why suit dosent shut up? 9/ no irosight when laser sight?
@SockBath idk.. i have a PC for mmos, but i really prefer consoles for all my other games. i don't mind the slightly worse graphics, because i get to sit on the couch and play in front of my 60" HDTV and i love the controller :)
@MrSpiers Well, PCs aren't that expensive nowadays. Check out TigerDirect's videos. They've got a few nice builds for $300-$500 that can run Crysis 1 on Very High at like 60fps.
@FullM3tal7ack3t Much improved shadows and textures. Not a significant improvement mind you, and there seems to be a way of 'forcing' dx9 to emulate dx10 effects. In all honesty though nothing much has been done with it and hardly anyone took advantage of it(always including the dx9 as an alternative) and it never really lived up to the potential that Microsoft was pushing. But it was doing some things under the hood that was interesting and would lead to a smoother graphical experience.
@TheTechJoint I completely agree, but I think you have to take price into account. A PC that can play this type of game at high graphics is much, much more expensive then any console. I would rather play games on a PC but rarely have the option to make it more enjoyable then a console.
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz You have wrong articles, they're not 4 pages. The graphical comparison is pretty obvious and decisive. Just look a pictures 4 and 5. I'll send you links.
@Originefx The new Mortal Kombat will definitely get a high score. It looks and controls great. The original arcade games may not have played well, but that was before control was perfected by any means. As for the gore, the game was popular BEFORE any Fatalitites were discovered, so there's no use using that was an excuse. For the storylines, I personally love games with them. But not every game needs them, especially fighters. Dissidia proved that quite nicely.
Just finished it on pc and I'd give it an 8.5/10. I don't like how they dumbed down the nanosuit. I miss having individual strength and speed modes, not just a strong jump/melee and a slightly faster sprint. It looks very very good but it's not above and beyond other top PC titles. I'm not against it being on consoles but I feel that on pc it should have graphics at least a year ahead of the competition. I don't think it's as realistic as Metro 2033. And no DX10/11 or custom graphics options!?
This game's campaign.... Is just INSANEE... Is mindblowing, thrilling, immersive and just epic...The plot twists are great..I just cant put it into words... Play it on PC, with head phones, alone, and in the dark and this game is just a brilliant piece of work. When the game picks up and gets going its great.. I was immersed completely... 8Hrs and 50 Mins of a pure epic movie :D
@MEDzZ3RO Well 5 isn't 8.. lol. I never seen more than 8 - 10 enemies at once (Killzone 3) In the last mission of KZ2, i see like 20, it was pretty amazing. I like Reach AI better, i love to fight againts it, its pretty smart, they can drive vehicles, hijack vehicles, they use armor abilities, its amazing.
sigh i got slied 590's and a 990x inter 6 core =/ for this game big mistake but we will have to see how dx 11 that i will probably need these for BF3 when it comes out
@xkrazyxboix101 the cod multiplayer works, why go to great lengths to create something 100% origional and when there is something great already availiable that you can change slightly to fit your own game? battlefield did it, medal of honor did it, killzone did it to an extent but Crysis just didn't quite get it right
@TheTechJoint KZ3 on th ps3 on HD can be compared to BC2 on hughest setting on pc. i have played both of them on both platforms. i agree games are generally better on PC i mean bc2 is better on pc than ps3 but some games like killzone 3 can be compared to the midlevel games like BFBC2 on PC orrainbow six vegas 2 on the PC and if you have played Killzone 3 you probably have seen the introductory cutscene which has awesome graphics THOSE ONLY THOSE graphics of KZ3 are better if not equal to Crysis
@MEGADETHTHRETH But I can play all those games on my PS3. And whilst the graphics may be inferior on console I still get to enjoy the game and that's what matters. There are so many great games on console that PC gamers can't play full stop. As there are on PC but as I've said most of them are FPSs and Strategy Games and I like more variety then that.
@FullM3tal7ack3t Are you saying dx9 looks better than dx10? If so I have to disagree there. And some cards run dx10 smoother than dx9, and my card_hd 4890) runs dx10 on the original Crysis quite well and looks superior to the dx9 version. Sorry to interrupt.
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz 8?, there's far more then 8. There's a trophy in Killzone 2 where you have to hit 5 with one grenade let alone all the enemies surrounding the area. In Killzone 3 in the flying vehicular shooting sections there are way more then just 8 AI. Killzone 2 and 3 run off the same engine, as you stated the engine can do it. Reviewers have always praised Killzones enemy AI. I personally since Killzone 2 have considered Killzone to have the best fps enemy AI. Friendly AI is terrible..
I hate how people complain about "Oh, i dont like this texture here! Crysis sux!". C'moon, really? Enjoy the amazing scenes and gameplay, and REALLY awesome graphics. You cant play the first one on 360, Crytek made this one for everybody, not just PC gamers and they are completely different, and both incredible! ;D
@rslaven I agree that graphics will be superior on PC but I don't agree that games are. Your forgetting that so many great games are exclusive to consoles, and whilst PC has a lot of exclusives as well most of them are FPS's and Strategy games.
@Arbeedark Crysis 2 was good, but it wasnt ANYWHERE near the level that Crysis 1 was on. Crysis 1 was all about making tactical decisions on a large scale. You could be given a mission to go somewhere on the island, and there were almost infinite ways you could get there. You had so much freedom to do whatever you felt necessary. Crysis 2, in short, has been rediculously dumbed down for idiotic COD fanboys to play it. It had such potential in a huge city, but they completely blew it.
@Originefx The world seems to be running on nostalgia lately. As much as I agree that re-hashes are beginning to get out of hand, there are quite a few exceptions. Ocarina of Time, for example, is something that everyone deserves to play at least once. If it takes a coat of shiny paint for kids today to get into it then I say more power to Nintendo. I was personally never a fan of Mortal Kombat, but the demo was enjoyable enough to make me consider a purchase. It's all a matter of opinion.
Good 10 hours from the single player campaign? What were they smoking weed at the same time? I took my time and completed the entire game in 5hours, one of the shortest games ive played...
@xuhuha14 Homefront is a better choice for multiplayer if you like BATTLEFIELD. Crysis 2 is a better multiplayer if you like COD. Or you might want a game different than the one you already have.
agreed the only thing is that I wish it was more open like the first a minor gripe, and the consoles versions in my two cents are more impressive due to the fact they look so damn good not pc good but close. The ps3 is a hair better kinda like BF3 so I have said enough
@MEDzZ3RO You can't compare 8 AI with 60.. According to the reviews Halo Reach still has the best AI in a FPS. I never seen rain in the Killzone 2/Killzone 3 campaign, there's only 1 map on KZ2 with rain (Beach Head). Killzone 3 resolution is 720p, like in Halo.
@MEDzZ3RO Killzone looks good, yeah but we're talking about the power of the engines, pre-baked is a good replacement, but there's only 1 engine with the power to put real-time illumination, Cryengine.
Im sure PS3 could not run KZ3 if the game was based on Real-time lighting.
But as i said, everything in Killzone is pre-baked, reflections, particles and shaders, while on Crysis everything is on real time, and it actually take more resources.
@Arab092 yes you can use any controller on pc. just as long as it has a usb connector. including xbox 360 controllers
@creekrocker You can buy a wirless PC/360 controller adapter that plugs into your pc but still allows you to use wireless xbox controllers
DAM!! That reviewer lost a lot of weight. Good on him.
@SockBath it doesn't matter. people have options and can choose the way they want to play.
@dudman89 its syncs the frames per second to the refresh rate of your monitor,
When you have a 60 heart monitor it cant show you more fps then 60, so the framerate stocks at 60, when you have a 120 heart monitor it stocks your framerate at 120 (if your gfx will reach 120 fps :D)
@b00mYou you mean the pictures? why on earth to i want to view those low resolution pictures?
@OZORxORON Right, but the only way games leak is from developers. Illegal downloads may exist but getting online (especially with steam) needs a key to work (a clean key).
@manhunt48
or just have everything on highand shadows on extreeme trough the console or on the new setting menu.
@hosrom Not to the point where i significantly effects sales. Besides Microsoft and Sony ban consoles from connecting to the internet, can brick consoles if they detect alien hardware and also band accounts.
@plbelanger Wow, What laptop do you have? I was thinking about getting a hp envy 17, I wonder would it run it.
@LeeroyDT just asking a legitimate question here. how exactly does the consol verion suck?
I like that fast paced orchestra music
@SockBath if its meant to be played on pc then why is it out on other plats?
@Scar8632
It shows you a extention of Alcatraz's injuries later, one of them being ruptured lungs. With ruptured lungs, I don't think it's possible to talk
Furthermore, Nanosuit 1 has 3 modes and Nanosuit 2.0 had only Armor mode(combined with Strength) + Cloak. It did not make me feel like a complete badarse rambo killer. The suit was suppose to surpass HALO spartans
@TheTechJoint I thought they didn't have DX11? Although I hear it's going to get patched in. Agree with you otherwise.
yes they do, but it ain't extremely populated, but you can find somewhere to play at all times.
@manhunt48 what laptop u have and what pc....just curios...O.o?
@psyckojoe The reason you get the suit is a spoiler about one of the characters, so they couldn't really say it.
Don't tell me they kept the new suit mode thing they introduced in the multiplayer demo? Please?
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz
That's just it, most multiplats are 360 ports. With optimization multi plats look better on PS3 (ref: FF XIII and Crysis 2). The 360 version has too much texture blur and on the subject of resolution the 360 upscales to 1080p, the PS3 plays compatible games without upscaling.
The reason PS3 gets ports is because porting from PC/360 to one another takes days but takes months to do so on PS3. It saves money time and effort. Exclusives are representational of a systems abilities
Are there any custom configs out for crysis 2?
@TheSkizsus I thought that the whole "you're not Prophet" thing added a moderate amount of suspense for a while. But yeah I guess the consoles aren't really as powerful as a high-end PC.

@UndercoverCracker the only issue i have is the consoleitis that it picked up and the fact the origanil character dosent get metioned once
@ruekurei88 dx10 just improves some effects, yes it on some video cards in runs better than dx9, but really i dont see that much of a change ..
I have a question when is it coming out for wii?
@MEDzZ3RO The review said Crysis 2 on 360 was the only version to support Bloom sooooo
@jubblehose123 It should handle it no problem. U didn't mention what is the screen size and resolution. If it's 1080p probably U go for the high/medium not ultra settings.
@Originefx i never bashed crysis i got it and i love it,i'm bashing the genre enough fps already,how does the pc provide better experience when it has so few games?and i want u to post ur mortal kombat comment on a mortal kombat video lets see if they will let u get away with it :D

@ThebombsquadDoc it isn't constant like in house of the dead and Maffia but in some parts it gets quite bad
@Gatehammer cool, that makes sense. Thanks for the info man!
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz

@daritachan They have their hands full, they need to give us the basic graphic options like any game for starters.
Update: Supports full DX11 on PC with high res textures
@SockBath But still......I was hoping for it to utilize DX11...
@MrSpiers
Well, PCs aren't that expensive nowadays.
Check out TigerDirect's videos. They've got a few nice builds for $300-$500 that can run Crysis 1 on Very High at like 60fps.
@FullM3tal7ack3t Much improved shadows and textures. Not a significant improvement mind you, and there seems to be a way of 'forcing' dx9 to emulate dx10 effects.

what does v sync do?
IMHO you're the best reviewer out there Kevin.
good job gamespot for reviewing the PC version
i would buy this but does the ps3 online work unlike the one on the demo
@TheSorrow1O1 Call of Duty, battlefield, Crysis. Big names all created on PC
@gianfook Well at least they don't talk about CoD like IGN
@TheTechJoint I completely agree, but I think you have to take price into account. A PC that can play this type of game at high graphics is much, much more expensive then any console. I would rather play games on a PC but rarely have the option to make it more enjoyable then a console.
I'm thinking of renting this game, but for me to understand the story of crysis two, will i need to play the first one?
what happens to prophet?
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz
You have wrong articles, they're not 4 pages.
The graphical comparison is pretty obvious and decisive. Just look a pictures 4 and 5. I'll send you links.
@AsneakyFatcat I concur.
hey guys what can be good settings for Crysis 2 on
Processor : AMD Athlon x2 Dual Core 5000+
GFX : Nvidia 9600GT 1024MB
Resolution : 1440x900
On steam sale now!
@Originefx The new Mortal Kombat will definitely get a high score. It looks and controls great. The original arcade games may not have played well, but that was before control was perfected by any means. As for the gore, the game was popular BEFORE any Fatalitites were discovered, so there's no use using that was an excuse.
For the storylines, I personally love games with them. But not every game needs them, especially fighters. Dissidia proved that quite nicely.
@manhunt48 yeah right... what £500 laptop can run this at max
hell yes, crysis 2 all day..
I've beaten it 6 times already and still like to play through it again
Do u still play it
@@supinthiam5741 no. I may play again, though
@macosftw Dude I have A GTX 460 Running 3GB RAM CORE 2 DUO, Hardcore settings no problems what so ever.
Just finished it on pc and I'd give it an 8.5/10. I don't like how they dumbed down the nanosuit. I miss having individual strength and speed modes, not just a strong jump/melee and a slightly faster sprint. It looks very very good but it's not above and beyond other top PC titles.

"Doesn't feel like anything else either"

as he drives a Warthog...
This game's campaign.... Is just INSANEE... Is mindblowing, thrilling, immersive and just epic...The plot twists are great..I just cant put it into words... Play it on PC, with head phones, alone, and in the dark and this game is just a brilliant piece of work. When the game picks up and gets going its great..

@pawel888pl yep,it will run just well
@MEDzZ3RO Well 5 isn't 8.. lol.
I never seen more than 8 - 10 enemies at once (Killzone 3)
In the last mission of KZ2, i see like 20, it was pretty amazing.
I like Reach AI better, i love to fight againts it, its pretty smart, they can drive vehicles, hijack vehicles, they use armor abilities, its amazing.
wow a special review just for the PC!
@JJchoy1593 you dont play prophet and i don't know if the main character is black
imo this is still the best game, if you have dx11 and high texture patch installed
@DaeV1id I agree.
sigh i got slied 590's and a 990x inter 6 core =/ for this game big mistake but we will have to see how dx 11 that i will probably need these for BF3 when it comes out
@xkrazyxboix101 the cod multiplayer works, why go to great lengths to create something 100% origional and when there is something great already availiable that you can change slightly to fit your own game? battlefield did it, medal of honor did it, killzone did it to an extent but Crysis just didn't quite get it right
@TheTechJoint KZ3 on th ps3 on HD can be compared to BC2 on hughest setting on pc.
i have played both of them on both platforms.
i agree games are generally better on PC i mean bc2 is better on pc than ps3
but some games like killzone 3 can be compared to the midlevel games like BFBC2 on PC orrainbow six vegas 2 on the PC
and if you have played Killzone 3 you probably have seen the introductory cutscene which has awesome graphics THOSE ONLY THOSE graphics of KZ3 are better if not equal to Crysis
3 is being announced monday = )
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz Agreed.
@MEGADETHTHRETH
But I can play all those games on my PS3. And whilst the graphics may be inferior on console I still get to enjoy the game and that's what matters. There are so many great games on console that PC gamers can't play full stop. As there are on PC but as I've said most of them are FPSs and Strategy Games and I like more variety then that.
@jubblehose123 I have a similar rig and i play at 1680x1050, medium settings in directx 11. No high res textures getting 50-60 fps
Thats with a patch, the game came out without DX11 support at first
@MmhGanja Crysis wasnt open world,just huge levels.Only open World games are MMO ;)
@FullM3tal7ack3t Are you saying dx9 looks better than dx10? If so I have to disagree there. And some cards run dx10 smoother than dx9, and my card_hd 4890) runs dx10 on the original Crysis quite well and looks superior to the dx9 version. Sorry to interrupt.
@xXxDarkWolfxXxz
8?, there's far more then 8. There's a trophy in Killzone 2 where you have to hit 5 with one grenade let alone all the enemies surrounding the area.

Reviewers have always praised Killzones enemy AI. I personally since Killzone 2 have considered Killzone to have the best fps enemy AI. Friendly AI is terrible..
Are there still players who play multiplayer?
Alot or few?
I hate how people complain about "Oh, i dont like this texture here! Crysis sux!". C'moon, really? Enjoy the amazing scenes and gameplay, and REALLY awesome graphics. You cant play the first one on 360, Crytek made this one for everybody, not just PC gamers and they are completely different, and both incredible! ;D
@rslaven
I agree that graphics will be superior on PC but I don't agree that games are. Your forgetting that so many great games are exclusive to consoles, and whilst PC has a lot of exclusives as well most of them are FPS's and Strategy games.

@Arbeedark Crysis 2 was good, but it wasnt ANYWHERE near the level that Crysis 1 was on. Crysis 1 was all about making tactical decisions on a large scale. You could be given a mission to go somewhere on the island, and there were almost infinite ways you could get there. You had so much freedom to do whatever you felt necessary.

@plbelanger Man that seems awesome, I'd love to get a gaming laptop fairly soon aswell, handy for gaming and work.
@Originefx The world seems to be running on nostalgia lately. As much as I agree that re-hashes are beginning to get out of hand, there are quite a few exceptions. Ocarina of Time, for example, is something that everyone deserves to play at least once. If it takes a coat of shiny paint for kids today to get into it then I say more power to Nintendo.
I was personally never a fan of Mortal Kombat, but the demo was enjoyable enough to make me consider a purchase. It's all a matter of opinion.
Good 10 hours from the single player campaign? What were they smoking weed at the same time? I took my time and completed the entire game in 5hours, one of the shortest games ive played...
@xuhuha14 Homefront is a better choice for multiplayer if you like BATTLEFIELD. Crysis 2 is a better multiplayer if you like COD. Or you might want a game different than the one you already have.
i like the way the suit made you a bad ass super killer but wasnt so completely over powered
agreed the only thing is that I wish it was more open like the first a minor gripe, and the consoles versions in my two cents are more impressive due to the fact they look so damn good not pc good but close. The ps3 is a hair better kinda like BF3 so I have said enough
What happened to the intro? O_O
@plbelanger damn thats a nice machine you got, good price too!
@crazychilidog
Oh? I bet some are made on Macs...
@MEDzZ3RO You can't compare 8 AI with 60..
According to the reviews Halo Reach still has the best AI in a FPS.
I never seen rain in the Killzone 2/Killzone 3 campaign, there's only 1 map on KZ2 with rain (Beach Head).
Killzone 3 resolution is 720p, like in Halo.
