But cry engine 3 was made for city emviroments, not for a large jungle

who can afford computer that can run this shit 60 fps, who can? who will pay another 500-1000 bucks so it runs slightly faster and looks slightly better, the ps3/xbox360 is good enough, eh?

@TheTollFace oh but they did... where did I put that document? aha, here it is damn, google search "Crysis-2-Key-Rendering-Featur­es.pdf" including the quotes. I think it's great they focussed on optimising, means their engine can look great, and run great too... at least on pc anyway.

also on ce3 notice the lag of the shadow as the tree falls unlike ce2

[portal23555]

@Nikos21Aekara Yes, it can. In 2006, by the time the PS3 was released, there were already Conroe-based Core 2 Duo processors and GeForce 7950 series GPUs, which is enough to run those games, even a bit better than consoles do. If you were willing to spend more and get a larger performance advantage, there were also Kentsfield-based Core 2 Extreme processors and GeForce 8800 series GPUs, the latter being released just three days before the PS3 was launched in japan.

@zombieapocalypse561 yeah but the best pc that existed on 2006 can't afford battlefield 3 or crysis 2
