Crysis 1080p60 Grail Quest: So Near, But So Far...

Digital Foundry writes:

"And so we return to the Crysis Grail Quest. For those who don't know, the aim is simple: to get the most technologically taxing video game ever made running at 1080p at a sustained 60 frames per second... on the highest settings possible. The rules of the game: one CPU, one graphics card, v-sync enabled, every setting at max, DX9 or DX10 both fair game though the emphasis is on the former. The point? To celebrate a technical milestone where gaming hardware has finally caught up with the most graphically ambitious game money can buy."

Man the guy playing sucks so badly : (

Superted20075428d ago

Ok for starters! Lets see why are you running this one Vista 64 but? You can get like 10%+ performance you would have reached 60fps.

Also a lot of people trying 2 get 60fps would be using SLI

xGrunty5428d ago

It's only sensible to say 60 is better than 30, what happens when you get under heavy load?

Then you'll be complaining when ur skippin all over the place, better pray for 60fps on consoles.

Pc owners need no worries though.

Pandamobile5428d ago

Cevat Yerli said they were having trouble getting Crysis to run at a solid 30 fps on the consoles. It's somewhere around 25-28. Maybe they'll get it better before Crysis 2 comes out.

TheTruth895428d ago (Edited 5428d ago )

No, human eye can't see the difference OVER 60fps, but from 30 to 60 the difference is really noticeable.

Anyway, my system run Crysis DX10 (max detail) at 25/30 FPS :o, @1080P of course.

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.

TheColbertinator410d ago

Crysis blew my mind back then and still kinda does.

bunt-custardly410d 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_Suzumiya481d ago

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

SonyStyled481d ago (Edited 481d ago )

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

jasonismoney481d ago

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

SonyStyled481d 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

cthulhucultist481d 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

Fist4achin481d ago

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

SonyStyled481d 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

JEECE481d 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.

iNcRiMiNaTi481d ago

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

JEECE481d ago

In terms of art style it still holds up.

Can It Run Crysis? The Only Steam Deck Question That Matters

Digital Foundry: "When Alex Battaglia got his hands on a Steam Deck, this was inevitable, right? So can the Steam Deck really run Crysis? And if so, what type of optimised settings produce the best performance? What's the best balance of features and battery life... and what about 60fps?"
