Photo-realistic Crysis?

Almost perfect version of a Crysis Nanosuit. More than 1,000,000 polygones and highres textures.

[medicshelley]

Sweet pics to bad it will never be in the final product.

[killax3563]

Most people can tell that's CG.

Photorealism isn't all about the number of polygons. Lighting and how simple/complex the model is is just as important.

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue looks way more photorealistic then these screenshots of Crysis. A lot of that has to do with the fact that cars are a lot easier to model then human beings.

[Millah]

CG?? Ummm sorry but thats real-time character models, not CG.

[psiom]

Real time character models ARE CG. you have the terms confused apparently.

CG stands for Computer Generated, and is a shortened version of the acronym CGI, which is Computer Generated Imagery.

[Adamalicious]

I agree. I was going to say that this just goes to show that countless polygons and high res textures do not make something photoreal. It's like they spent all their time on Textures and polys and 10 minutes on lighting - which is absolutely more important.

[mistertwoturbo]

Guys this is just the character model. I'm sure once the HDR lighting, blur and other FX are implemented. Then it would look more photorealistic. Because the amount of detail is almost comparable to real life.

[rickyjb23]

how ? has any one seen a guy walking down the street in one of these? but i have to say looks prety damn good.

[Menchi]

I've never understood the term Photo-realistic being used in regards to Crysis... Or any game for that matter.

There's no game I've ever seen, that's even come close to it with in-game graphics. Yes, they look amazing by computing standards, but almost real, no.

[killax3563]

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue is very close to photorealistic.

[Infernus]

...but effects like smoke and explosions have got very close to real-life. The smoke in Killzone 2 looks real, it blows in the wind and moves properly. CG people are a whole different kettle of fish, the day we can't distinguish a CG person from a real one is the day we have true virtual reality not just photo-realism.

Some of the vids of GT5P made me think I was watching real cars, I knew I wasn't, but the fact that some doubt was there indicates it's very realistic.

[mistertwoturbo]

@2.1

Break down the word. PHOTO - REALISTIC.

In a sense, if something is to look photorealistic. Then it would look like realism, that's taken as a photo. Like a picture.

[QueefyB]

this must be the rumored crysis ps3 version

[Lord Shuhei Yoshida]

Yeah the thought of crysis on the PS3 is making our terrorist friend here Loco.

[Shroomy]

You're PS3 lacks the RAM capable of rendering a huge jungle, so you'll just have to stick with MGO for the mean time!

Ontopic: awesome render!

[Crazyglues]

it is possible, have you seen the high detail on the cars in MotorStorm 1... or the renders of GT5p's cars....

it's just that if you put that much into the character then how would they get the boards...

The Real Question here is, are they doing this for a PS3 version, or for Crysis 2 ..? (PC)

I want to see more... This is looking amazing.

[Thoas]

Nice

[Drekken]

I cant even make it through a comment of his... back on the leash son!

[Lord Shuhei Yoshida]

Ritallin and pep pills drove my friend here crazy.Dont do drugs kids

[QueefyB]

i think once crysis comes to the ps3 then we will be able to effectively see a game that uses 50% of the powerful cell broadband engine

[QueefyB]

i wonder if the devs will include sixaxis support to make the ps3 version more unique and accessible

[QueefyB]

i assume they will be taking advantage of the successful blu ray format found in the playstation 3

[Lord Shuhei Yoshida]

Yes and the Cell will keep a steady framerate

[Timesplitter14]

Looks too CG-ish.

Realistic stuff looks less plastic shiny

[KatanaSteel]

*cough* unreal engine 3

[Microsoft_Warrior]

QueefyB tried to rape me :(

[Lord Shuhei Yoshida]

You wish bot.Besides Microsoft already finished you and you asked for seconds

X360 FTW !

[Microsoft_Warrior]

i saw a vid of shuhei making out with queefy b !!!!!!

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwww

[Hueco Muendo Leader]

you truly think crysis looks that good dont you? man please MAG is still just only scratching the surface, and killzone 2 owns anything crysis has and they havent even scratched the surface of ps3 with that game, crysis is an overhype of graphics, stop hyping it now, its over

[dkgshiz]

It was in the official PS mag. They talked to the head dev of naughty dog. He said uncharted only took up 33% of the CPU. Thats really amazing if you think how good uncharted looks. Gears 1 on the 360 took up 95% of the 360s processor. Since UT3 and GOW 1 use the same engine and well everything, I wonder how much UT3 took up on the PS3? I bet its around 20% or maybe a little more. Yep, PS3 smokes the 360. When somebody starts to talk about how much more powerful the 360 is to the ps3, I just dont even get involved. Its not worth fighting about something useless. We all know the PS3 is a much more powerful console than a junker 360. Its just a fact.

[moses]

You can't measure the usage of a whole console by a game in a percentage. Doing that alone makes you enough of an idiot, saying something like Crysis in all of it's eyecandy glory is possible on consoles as it is on PC's is also stupid, please, if you're going to say crap like this, and want people to believe it, show some solid evidence. My 1,800$ pc with E8400 3.5ghz core 2 duo CPU, SSC OC'ed GTX 280, and 2GB DDR21066 ram strains to play crysis 1920x1200 very high at a solid 30~35 fps. Now how does a 400$ console stand up to a 1,800 PC with newer hardware? It's pretty simple logic. It doesn't.

[SoIid Snake]

E8400 at 3.5GHz? Is your vcore at 1.3625 already? What batch did you get? You could easily hit 4.0 with that chip.

[CrazzyMan]

not natural, pc-like style.

well, that`s what i see, you can see something different.)

[dkgshiz]

PS3 could easily run crysis. Its more powerful than almost any pc. Besides for mac pros. Yeah, PS3 is more powerful than any other console out, its not a lie its a fact. Just go to wikipedia and search for the ps3. Look at the specs they kill the 360s. For people who think the ps3 has only 256mb of RAM. You really don't know what your talking about. The cell shares another 256mb of RAM so it adds up to 512mb ram. Besides RAM doesn't really do much. Its all about processing power, the most important part of a pc or console in this case. I laugh at people who think RAMS more important than a CPU.

[moses]

Even though it's stupid to argue with idiots like you, I'm bored, so I'll do it for shi*s and giggles.

I have a GTX 280, it has 240 processing cores, and 1024MB of ram, it outputs almost 1teraflop. That ONE chip I have in my computer is much more powerful than your PS3. So, sure, a CPU is more powerful than ram (How do you even think of crap like this? o_o), but a GPU is much more powerful than a CPU.

[why do droids cry]

cell s not the most powerfull thing out their. it will get quickly out dated with in a year or so. not saying it isnt powerfull just saying technology evolves fast. lookn at the new nevidia chips. they will smoke any consol to date

[kevnb]

but I certainly wouldn't mistake it for real life.

[Ghoul]

a good render setup and lighting would have made the normal ingame asset nanosuit look way better then this 80's superglos suit :)

polycount dont to realism, its lighting.

[lagoonalight]

smoke a console for like two games available that 15 people can actually run

while you are at it why not get a pixar dev station and just start smoking crack

[zonetrooper5]

PS3, nor the 360 will be able to run Crysis and anyways Crysis is not comming out on the consoles.

[thomas0506]

yeh.. now picture that suite in game with all the lighting effects

[Matpan]

Oh.. any game is AGES away from the real world thing. The number of imperfections and random alignment of elements and the minimal differences between things that are suposed to be equal are small parts of what makes reality so much different from gaming.

Yet when you sit in front of a computer/console, your brain adjusts to this "gaming reality" and jaws drop to graphics that are becoming increasingly more accurate in representing real life (in the cases where the game chooses a realistic art direction/style). And yes, games like MGS4 / COD4 / GeOW / Crysis / Assasins creed / GT5P (add your fav looking title here) All look amazing when staring at the TV and being immersed in that gaming world.

But just take the eyes off the screen for a second and look just at your hand (not at a cityscape or out through the window to the street and the cars parked) just your hand... look at all those tiny hairs, the veins under the skin, skin imperfections... Look at the controller , look at the curves it has no jaggies, no polys there... Games are not even close to that... Games offer a nice imitation which your brain chooses to make feel much more real, that´s all. Even modern CGI is still struggling to reach realism.

But harsh criticism aside... those models look AMAZING, I can´t picture that in real time... but who knows, maybe the next generation of graphics cards can handle a dozen of those on screen in a jungle-like environment :) HOPE SO!!!

[Infernus]

Nothing in the gaming world can match reality yet. I would say the Motion Capture technology (e.g in Heavenly Sword, Uncharted and best of all Killzone 2) helps to further trick the brain because the characters move realistically. Getting game characters to look real is almost impossible due to the imperfections of skin, the difficulty of texturing veins and curves and removing the jaggies and I could go on about the difficulty of realistic facial features but I won't because it'll bore a lot of people lol.

I feel the moment we reach the point when we can't distinguish gaming from reality is the moment when we have to think long and hard about what's in a game and what it could make people think (or do...).

Imagine playing a game that looked just like a HD movie, absolutely real but you were in control of one of the characters, it'd be awesome of course but wouldn't it be a bit weird to a degree?

[thomas0506]

We are getting closer to this every year. So in 10 years time i can see this happening :D

[Tyrael]

Yeah i'd say that by the end of the 9th, probably early 10th generation of games will look pretty realistic

[thomas0506]

maybe sooner, u never know wat they can really do

[KrimsonKody]

Yes, you can have a 'ultimate' niidia chip or whatever. But honestly, "WHAT" is close to utilizing that? Crysis or any other game coming out this gen can't even put such a chip to use. That's like using the PS3 hardware to render Genesis games, back in the 90's! See, graphically NO game produces true photo-realism to the level that require 'those' chips. Photo-realism = Final Fantasy the Spirited Within specs > than any game coming out for anything.

[moses]

you're just an idiot, Crysis does bring my card down to it's knees. At 1920x1200 very high I ONLY get 30~35 fps, and if I enable any AA the frames suffer. Final Fantasy spirits within doesn't look very photo realistic, just very well rendered CGI.

[BYE]

Photo-realistic games would be so expensive to make. Maybe they *could* do it in like 10 years, the other question is if they want to do that and if it pays of.

[Fux4Bux]

Lighting isn't even very good there.

[Dragnipur]

Now all that is left is for them to execute a better story and gameplay!

[jeenyus]

That is FAR from being photo-realistic.
Silent Hill 2 had more real looking characters...the face at least.

[media73]

er photorealistic? are you kidding that looks crap.

[codeazrael]

Xbox 1080 or PS5 maybe

[Altis1]

What app was used to make this? 3ds? Maya? XSi?

[spandexxking]

looks good!

[Cynical-Gamerzus]

Sorry but:
Photo realistic Is GT5!! Get it straight

Been there done that...Next!!!
And with Limited RAM as well on the PS3!!!
Try that with your BS RAM filled PC cards!!

[Qdog]

I'd have to say that Crysis came pretty close to photo realistic, without this model..Now if I could just get over 70fps @ max settings with 8xMSaa, I would be very happy..

[Qdog]

I do think so..
