Crysis 2 3D 'more pleasing' than Killzone 3 3D

Upcoming first-person shooter Crysis 2 offers a "more pleasing experience" than PS3-exclusive Killzone 3.

That's according to Crytek boss Cevat Yerli, who described his studio's 3D technology as "magic" in an interview with VideoGamer.com for a special feature on 3D gaming.

When asked if the PS3 version of Crysis 2, which will also be playable in 3D on the Xbox 360 and PC, will offer the best 3D Crysis 2 experience, Yerli told VideoGamer.com: "No, absolutely not.

"In fact, I have heard numerous people say - and I have seen myself - that we have a better 3D experience than other games right now on the show floor. I don't want to mention any names."

Well of course Crytek is going to think Crysis 2 looks better.

Y'all have heard of Turn 10, right? Do you trust THEIR PR?

Nitrowolf25803d ago (Edited 5803d ago )

yeah the funny part is he hasn't even seen it yet (states in article)
BS i say
until he see's it, he should shut his mouth

KingPin5803d ago

Well duh! what are they expected to do. its not like they can say killzone 3d is way better than our game. i just lol when articles come out about companies boasting their own game. its like no1 else is going to sso they might as well do it themselves.

dirthurts5803d ago

Is Crytek KNOWS visuals. They do some impressive stuff.

Double Toasted5803d ago (Edited 5803d ago )

Don't they know you can't say things like this on N4G? Sony fanboys go into convulsions and someone has to call a priest to come in and throw holy water on them.

Below: Oops...lets add denial to the many quagmires you Sony fanboys are in bred with.

n4gno5803d ago

Nobody goes into convulsion, sony fans are here to help xbot's fans like you to stop their denial/delusional attitude, and desperates hopes..

you want to believe, but reality is always a deception...than you forget, and believe again all greenberg and microsoft's sites want you to believe.

huzzaahh5803d ago

What I find funny is that Xbox fanboys like you always rip on PS3 fanboys because you think that you are justified in your fanboyism, but PS3 fanboys aren't.

The fact of the matter is, the guy hasn't even seen Killzone 3 in 3D, so he has no reason to claim that his game is "more pleasing" than Killzone 3.

Next time, don't copy someone else's insult. When someone says that you're in denial, don't say the exact same thing back. It makes you look like even more of an idiot.

dirthurts5803d ago

You guys know this is multiplatform right? You can all play it...
It doesn't matter which is better.

ALFAxD_CENTAURO5803d ago (Edited 5803d ago )

I don't see how PS3 Fans will feel uncomfortable in this article.

PS3 is the Only console to do Native 3D along with the PC platform.

More Native 3D Games, better for PS3 Owners, unlike other consoles can't do Native 3D, like Xbox 360.

redsquad5803d ago

Yeah, because, y'know, Xboys fanboys are so cool, level headed, well adjusted and rational when it comes to 'defending' their console...

Ju5803d ago

@Alfa, I guess Yerli didn't make too many friends on the PS3. While they (Crytek) boosting their game will end it all, they haven't proven yet, that they can beat PS3 exclusives. At the same time, they haven't shown any PS3 gameplay - it was always shown on the 360 - and at the same time they say, 360 and PS3 are on par. They tried to hype it on the PS3 as the graphics king. That automatically makes them a target. Why even claim that ? Obviously we would want to see that - E310 would have been a perfect opportunity for them to show it on the PS3 directly going up against KZ3. But, guess who talks but doesn't show ? Crytek.

I personally highly doubt, Crysis2 will be on KZ3's level. I will eat humble pie if it will be. But even theoretically it won't, not based on the info we know. They just don't have PS3 specific code in there which would boost vertex through put nor do they us MLAA or any other advanced tech those PS3 exclusives use. As such, it simply will not reach the technical level of latest (and yet to come) PS3 exclusives. With vertex preprocessing the polycount would massively exceed the 360 version. The MLAA would blow the (even) 4xMSAA of the 360 version out of the water. Neither will happen in the release version. So, maybe we will see some nice lightning and some nice physics (using SPUs), but that'll be it.

I am not surprised, that every time he (Yerli) boosts his game, it sounds like a frontal attack "at some games on the showfloor". No wonder people are getting defensive.

PotatoClock5803d ago

"the guy hasn't even seen Killzone 3 in 3D, so he has no reason to claim that his game is "more pleasing" than Killzone 3."

He actually says he 'thinks' its more pleasing, basing that on what other 'people' have said about it being more pleasing than killzone 3. He doesn't personaly claim that it is, which makes sense seeming he hasn't seen killzone 3.

Honestly, articles like this work so well with PS3 fanboys to get hits. Mention anything bout Killzone 3 and their on here like a shot protecting an generic good looking game.

gunnerforlife5803d ago

im sorry but what hes saying is utter rubbish! killzone has so many things going on at the same time and so many enemies on screen that its just wow.

What I have seen of Crysis so far includes is 3 enemies at a time on the screen, Crysis is all about graphics and even that dosent hold a candle to K3.
i want to have fun when playing a Shooter i want loads of enemies to pop up everywhere so i can go on a killing spree i mean thats what shooters are for mindless fun, not 1 enemy at a time and be bored to death!.

sid4gamerfreak5803d ago

crysis 2 is certainly more pleasing in the graphics department....on the PC

waterboy5803d ago

ps3 and 360 versions of crysis 2, which isnt saying much since crytek has developed longer for pc, also no the pc version of crysis will still sit sadly far under killzone 2

pixelsword5803d ago

What do I care which one is more pleasing? I own a PS3, and I'll possibly get both.

But Crytek 3D makes the PS3 version to get above the PC... If I can get enough coin together to buy that set before the game comes out.

MNicholas5803d ago

in describing the 3D used in Crysis as "concave" then it would require some kind of head tracking.

Here's an example of how concave 3D works. This is just one implementation (wiimote hack) but any webcam with good face/head tracking software can do it.

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

The advantages of head-tracking based "concave" 3D is that it doesn't require additional graphics processing power while the Killzone 3 type 3D requires rendering twice as many frames per second and it works on any old TV including your grandma's CRT.

The disadvantages of webcam based "concave" 3D are that it only works for one viewer (other's see distorted views) and it requires the console equivalent of a webcam (such as PSEye, Kinect/Natal, etc...).

masterg5803d ago

It seems like non of the people at E3 thought the Crysis 3D worked. They all said KZ3 was the best 3D of the two.

trancefreak5803d ago

Im buying both and playing it on my non-3d tv. Im not getting another tv for 3d. I have a nice 46 samsung already and i can wait for this novelty.

cobraagent5803d ago (Edited 5803d ago )

Yerli added that he was refused entry to see Killzone 3 at E310.

"I haven't seen Killzone, to be honest. I wish I would see it, but they won't let me see it!"

So if he hasn't seen killzone 3 yet how can he comment on which is the best game in 3d?

talltony5803d ago

and I doubt kz3 in 3d dissapoints at all.

Pandamobile5803d ago

He's probably referring to how it [KZ3] uses the conventional stereo 3D that has been around for years where the effect is to look like objects are popping out of the screen whereas Crysis 2 is supposedly utilizing a different form of stereo 3D where the effect is to look like objects go into the screen.

He could have said the same thing with any other made-for-3D game, but KZ3 is likely has the most hype surrounding it.

HungPHAT5803d ago

I was at E3 this and KZ3 was playable on the floor in 3D ! Sony 8 TV's to play it on , 4 4 in 2D and 4 in 3D and yes I played the shit out of it ! AWESOME.... so he's full of shit I was right in the middle of the convention center next to Socom 4 which I played also with MOVE controller , that was cool to

Hacker5803d ago (Edited 5803d ago )

It's Crysis 2 3D baby of course its gonna be better than any other 3D game. Also Crysis 2 is pre alpha lol.

cobraagent5803d ago (Edited 5803d ago )

and being released this autumn?? He also never mentioned killzone and has actually not played it yet

T9X695803d ago (Edited 5803d ago )

So is Killzone 3 though.

EDIT: @cobraagent - SOCOM 4 is still in pre-alpha and its being released this holiday to. Not saying Crysis 2 is indeed in pre-alpha because I don't know but it is possible.

stephmhishot5803d ago

Last I checked, KZ3 is also in Pre-Alpha (clearly seen during their E3 demo). LAWL.

NYC_Gamer5803d ago

yes crysis 2 will look much better on high end pc's..because of the hardware

waterboy5803d ago

7 times, this agree disagree system has really got to go

PotatoClock5803d ago

You think the PS3 fanboys aren't using it to show support for anyone saying crap bout Killzone 3 being "better than Crysis 2" as well?

Its the only way a minority like that can make themselves look huge.

BubbleSystemSuck5803d ago (Edited 5803d ago )

im starting to hate Crysis 2 and his arrogance and hype

karl5803d ago

me to... we dont even know how good of a developer crytek is..
crysis may be the best looking game to date...(and that is debatable)

but they made it on pc .. there they have no limits..

so many other devs could have made their games look like crysis but they knew sales would sink since not everyone can play it...

conclusion.. i dont know how great these guys are but i bet u that guerrilla games and naughty dog could beat their asses any day if they were making a pc game.

Nihilism5803d ago (Edited 5803d ago )

I own and have played both Crysis and Crysis Warhead, the videos of Crysis 2 look even better. That is my opinion as a PC gamer. I thought it was going to be gimped due to the multiplat, it clearly isn't. I have sen UC2 on a 1080p TV...it doesn't look anywhere near as good as this does, but we shall see on launch day.

"i dont know how great these guys are but i bet u that guerrilla games and naughty dog could beat their asses any day if they were making a pc game. "

Anyone can optimise a game for 1 platform, which is where 1st party developers get too much credit, it takes true skill to optimise it extremely well for both performance and visuals on all 3 platforms.

How many times have muliplats been sub HD on one console, when they are 720p on the other?

Not only is this 720p on BOTH console's but it runs at 30 frames, and it has 3D on both console's, something no other game has, if anything they are underrated, not overrated.

huzzaahh5803d ago

Honestly, the Crysis 2 gameplay demo at E3 looked liked nothing special. It looks generic, in fact. Not exactly high on my list of anticipated games.

karl5803d ago

well you are making my point

"Anyone can optimise a game for 1 platform, which is where 1st party developers get too much credit, it takes true skill to optimise it extremely well for both performance and visuals on all 3 platforms. "

well thats it... this is their first multiplatform game and it hasnt been release yet..

and my second point is that with PC u dont need to optimize.. PC developers just expect pc gamers to upgrade to run their games

if a pc games doesnt run well in a not so much powerful machine.. its the gamers fault.. not developers... thats how it works with pc gaming

so how can a developer fail in there? they cant .. while on xbox and ps3 they will be torn apart for a low framerate, on pc... its cuz the gamer doesnt have a enough powerful pc

honestly .. pc gamers brag to much.. they are being rip off every year
because there is just no such thing as optimization for them..

well i guess that for crytek we need to wait for them to release their game and see how it really works.. it looks nice for now. but not enough

Our Story – Episode 2 – Crysis 2 to Ryse: Son of Rome

Crytek : In episode two of Our Story, the team discusses the evolution of Crysis into Crysis 2 and 3 (and the pressures that came with it), how a local connection landed an incredible collaboration with legendary composer Hans Zimmer, and the New York trip that inspired much of Crysis 2. For the gladiators among you, you’ll also get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the development of Ryse: Son of Rome and the attention to detail that went into it.

piroh537d ago

There's too many games to choose from

No Metal geat solid 1,2,3,4?
No Resident evil?
No Silent hill?
No Midnight club 3?
No NfS Underground 2?
No Final Fantasy?
No Burnout 3?
No Dragon quest 8?
No Days gone?
No Ace combat?
No Tekken/Soul calibur?......
just from the top of my head

PS1 era was full of great RPGs, PS2 was racing generation i would pick top 200 and even that would be just a fraction.

FinalFantasyFanatic536d ago

30 is way too low over the entire history of Playstation, I just wouldn't be able to narrow it down that much, I would pick 100 at least.

Storm23536d ago

Yeah...really odd list. I get that it is personal preference and I love most of the games listed, but my list would definitely be different. I agree though, it would be incredibly difficult to come up with just 30.

lockedongamer1536d ago (Edited 536d ago )

I only picked first-party titles. Otherwise, I agree!

EDIT: Except for Days Gone, I don't get the love for it but you do you!

Chocoburger527d ago

I didn't like Days Gone either, it doesn't deserve to be on any best of list.

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor1102d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1102d ago

Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!

jznrpg1102d ago

I’m with you I want Horizon 3 , Killzone and new IPs

badz1491102d ago

I have yet to play Burning Shores as I just started Forbidden West (bought at launch, just unwrapped last weekend LOL) and playing on PS5.

man...I still can't believe the graphics especially now I'm playing it on my LG OLED. that graphics and with stable performance backing it up, GG really is the master of their craft!

Vengeance11381102d ago

32.7M sales in the Horizon franchise! With 8.4M coming from Forbidden West alone! Truly a hugely successful game and franchise as a whole. Looking forward to Horizon III

Shane Kim1102d ago

That's kind of a huge drop though. It's only been two games.

VersusDMC1102d ago

One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

https://www.noobfeed.com/ne...

So not a drop off.

Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?

Vengeance11381102d ago

It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.

solideagle1102d ago

lol you are comparing:

HZD: 28 February 2017 - May 2023 (6 years+)

HFW: 18 February 2022 - May 2023 (1 year+)

We will see if it surpass original number.

Phoenix761102d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.

Wow, very impressive. I didn't know the numbers were so high for Forbidden West. Still playing through it myself

thesoftware7301102d ago (Edited 1102d ago )

Yooo, when I first saw that Killzone 1 footage at E3, my friends my brothers and I were like, Holy shit! When it came out, it didn't look exactly like it, but we sunk so many hours into 1 & 2.

I even liked Killzone: SF, it was a spectacle to look at, and even today it looks good. I hope they make a new one. Can you imagine how that will look, and they can get some modern FPS pointers from Bungie.

blacktiger1102d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1102d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.

OzzY-waZZy1102d ago (Edited 1102d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1102d ago

They are probably working on mutiple projects. One of them is Horizon 3, but another is a multiplaer game and probably somehting else.

Imalwaysright1102d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.
