CryEngine 3 Demo Video Will Blow Your Mind

You're not an idiot, I just disagree with you. While I really enjoy the stylized graphics of some games, I also enjoy massive realism that comes with some games these days. I would prefer it if they both advanced in what they could do.Abengoshis said:
Holy crap. I was wondering to myself earlier on why a lot of companies are looking for other engines instead of the Unreal Engine (I know, Batman:AA used it, and it was beautiful). Then I see this and know why. Juts stunning. I cannot wait to see massive explosions in real time with the shockwave affecting anything nearby (like liquefying a nearby enemies organs, or knocking them hundreds of meters away).
Hopefully the scalability will be like that of the Unreal Engine.

Amazing graphics as ususal from Crytek, but what worries me is that im not remembering many games besides far cry 2 and Crysis using the old engine. Im pretty sure there are more than those two i just cant think of any at this moment that were obviously using the cry engine. I just hope more developers will give it a shot and use it to its full potential
People always confuse engine with artists. That this looks good is to a large degree the responsability of the artists NOT the engine. You can do most of that with other engines too given you have an artist knowing his trade. And please don't call this "next-gen". No engine nowadays is next-generation in design since they are still all build after the same broken design from long time ago. They improve graphics and physics but this is not what makes a game engine next-generation. This buzz-word is annoying since any engine out there calls itself next-gen but really is just a brush-up on graphics and nothing more.

It really bothers me that everytime a dev puts a lot of effort into an engine that can handle mass scale pretty, some hack has to come along and dismiss it with "graphics don't matter" comments. The art of a game does matter, it doesn't detract from the gameplay and it's stupid to dismiss all of that good work because it's cool to rate gameplay higher right now. Without the massive advances made in graphics and engine optimization, gameplay would never have evolved beyond pong....

bah failed the edit, double post
Pretty damn good, I wasn't really that impressed though as graphics aren't what draws me to a game (yes I know this is showcasing the engine). Still though, it's enough to make you go o.o and then
man ive seen cry engine 3 demos on ign in march and aug
so erm why is it you only found out now. is only recently been completed and being sold to other publisher i suppose.
anyway it is wonderful now there should be more time for making the game, and less poor ports.
