Source Engine vs. CryEngine 2 vs. Unreal Engine 3 graphics comparison

PC Games Online compares the graphics of Valve's Source Engine with Crytek's CryEngine 2 and with Epic's Unreal Engine 3. Can Valve's engine keep up with the other two? Check yourself.
All images are included here at N4G in their original size.

i love those comparisons. keep em comin!!

clownfacemcgee6169d ago

I like comparisons too, it's often not until you see them side by side, that you can really tell which one looks better, and btw I think Cryengine2 still pwns all. I really hope Square will do something with it for PS3. That would be some awesome potential.

Why are people comparing game engines with screenshots again?

reaperxciv6170d ago

Both engines are impressive!!

Drew6170d ago (Edited 6170d ago )

More pointless comparisons? Surprise, surprise. It's obvious that some engines are going to look better than others, especially if they're new. Source is years old. But hey, to each his own, I guess.

power of Green 6170d ago (Edited 6170d ago )

Source has better enviroments, Crytec has better looking charector models, Unreal is in the middle?. None which matters as all of them have different art design in the first place.

Can't really tell what is being proven here as you can't tell what strenths are trying to be made known on any engine. Maybe Devs need to create the same enviroments and conditions and show off that way; not some guy with too much time on his hands.

Infamous Video Game Endings That Left a Bad Taste

The most disappointing and infamous video game endings even sour the overall thoughts of a game. Most of these titles represent some of the finest entries in their respective series, marred by an ending we can't quite forgive.

Far Cry 5....bullshit. This game had a great ending imo.

MrNinosan13d ago

There is no game called Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2, but Rebirth had a great ending imo. Felt robbed by the ending at first, but the more I've seen it and during my 3rd playthrough, I started to understand and realize a lot more that make me appreciate the ending.

Nerdmaster13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

I was enjoying FFVII Remake, even though those whispers throughout the game were annoying. But the ending was so bad that I don't even want to play Rebirth. On top of that, from what I saw on reviews, the ending of Rebirth is even worse.

Also, I'm glad to see Zero Time Dilemma being recognized as the trainwreck it is. After the amazing two first games (especially the near perfect second one), the low quality of the trilogy end is baffling. The new characters are bad, the old characters don't feel like themselves, a surprise "alien technology" pops out of nowhere, the big twist was like "eh?", and it doesn't really finish the story nor explains the loose threads from the second game.

No one cares. The whole can it run Crysis is old, dead and stupid. It's also irrelevant, considering only less than one percent of pc owners, own a high-end PC. Second, I believe Crysis wasn't even optimized properly.

TheColbertinator375d ago

Crysis blew my mind back then and still kinda does.

bunt-custardly375d ago

Let's hope the modders can get the other Crysis games working in VR as they use the same Cryengine.

Bioshock still looks fantastic, one of my all time favorites.

Yui_Suzumiya446d ago

Beyond: Two Souls on PS3 can compete with modern day graphics.

SonyStyled446d ago (Edited 446d ago )

Same as Killzone 2 and 3, uncharted 2 and 3, Infamous 2, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3

jasonismoney446d ago

I wish this was entirely true, but you might want to load up Killzone 2 and Resistance 3 again.

SonyStyled446d ago

@jason I watched some gameplay videos of KZ2 and R3 on my full screen. They are on par or succeed graphically to the first person shooters mentioned in the article that also launched on the seventh generation of consoles. Try the same and see what you think

cthulhucultist446d ago

Killzone 3 was super impressive! I could not believe the graphics back then as I was regularly pausing the game to stand in awe looking at the surroundings! Resistance however did not impress me that much. Heavy rain is also another amazing graphically speaking game. It almost felt next gen

Fist4achin446d ago

I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.

SonyStyled446d ago

They did for their day. I recently played gears judgement with on the 360 and the draw distance was so blurry. The characters up close look great though

JEECE446d ago

Far Cry 2 was awesome. In addition to having demonstrably better physics and AI than later games in the series, it had a lot of design decisions that, criticized at the time, have since been praised in games like BOTW and Dark Souls.

iNcRiMiNaTi446d ago

It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good

JEECE446d ago

In terms of art style it still holds up.
