Crysis redefines the 'game face'

the one thing that they ALWAYS fail on, is realistic looking ears. There are so many polygons needed in the ears that many times its just not worth putting the time and effort in for such a minor detail, thus square, pokey ears. This photo shows photo realistic ears, there is no chance of this being anything other than an in game render which has been extremely detailed to show off.

Curse you Joystiq! You should WARN people before you put shots like that up on the front page!

...now I've got to wipe down my computer desk. AGAIN.

the perfection is in the imperfection

I'm wondering what kind of setup you'd have to have to make this game run smoothly. 7900 SLI minimum requirement.

Whine whine whine! What's with all of that? The artists and programmers are doing their best to do what they do and everybody takes their two cents to make sure they pick the flaws. Whether Crysis is a good game or not, it's irrelevant at this point since it's not out and nobody has played it.

What's good is they're developing their own technology. If they don't make use of it in an entertaining way, then someone else might see the tech and go "Hey, I'd like to use that to make a game."

Like what happened with Half Life. The tech has a lot of potential to be used well, even if it's not used by the original creators.

the chinese chick looks good, almost like Zhang Ziyi.

And man, those banana leaves look incredible

Is it just me or does all the terrain (mountains etc) look like its been quickly knocked up on Bryce?

Hey, at least it's not the shiny "realistic" graphics that we've come to see lately... Way better, fooled my dad into thinking that it's a real pic of a real person. Or is it...?
