Options
IGN Ratings for Crysis 2 Rating Description
9.0 Presentation
Crysis 2 folds all of its interface into a slick, elegant in-game solution that draws you further in. The story has holes, but remains interesting throughout.
9.5 Graphics
Crysis 2 on Xbox 360 has taken the crown for best graphics in a console game. It's well animated and the effects are great, but light is always the star of the show.
9.5 Sound
Fantastic sound effects and positional audio are complimented by one of the best orchestral scores I've ever heard in a game.
9.0 Gameplay
Crysis offers a unique play experience that emphasizes clever power usage against smart AI. It plays fantastically well - when it's working.
9.5 Lasting Appeal
The campaign may last as long as 11 hours, and features a new game+ hook. With a fully realized multiplayer mode, Crysis 2 could keep your interest for quite a while.

Look how blurry the 360 version looks in close ups. The lack of detail in the sky. The poor lighting compared to the PS3 version. More jaggies than PS3 version.
IGN is fanboys. Have been this entire generation.
360 version
PS3 version

I'm Sick of FPS in general. In the past couple months there was Killzone 3, Bulletstorm, Homefront, Crysis, and soon RAGE, Resistance, Brink, Battlefield 3.
Overkill. Played the ? out. None of these bring anything new to the genre, except maybe Rage with it's racing mixed in.
IGN also said something like "Crysis 2 has the best console graphics, better than the dark Killzone and Gears of war"........... Uncharted 2 and ? of War III look better than both those games. -
ROFL,the game does suck and the graphics are far from the best @ anything.They meant the best on the 360.

I thought Rage was car combat or some ? ?

True but that's all Crysis in general ever was....a graphics ? .
As far as adding new ? to the genre, isn't Brink supposed to add that SMART system ? where you can topple over objects/climb/jump off walls....I'm still interested in playing this.
Rage isn't car combat, that was just a part of the game. It's kinda like Fallout. -

I just DL this and played it yesterday it's actually pretty good . I was on the fence since i played it on the PC and there are just some PC games that have no business on consoles. I like how the levels have their own ? streaks.
