Crytek Needs To Put Up or Shut Up About the Console Versions of Crysis 2



For the last couple of months, Crytek has bragged on about Crysis 2 being the best looking game on the PS3 and 360. They claimed that they "hit the graphical ceiling" on the PS3 and that the 360 and PS3 versions are identical (Which raises some eyebrows, considering that the Ps3 has been leading the graphical charge on the consoles for a while). So with all of this talk, when will Crytek show us some evidence of such?

What have we seen of Crysis 2 so far? A teaser trailer? Some screens that aren't from gameplay perspectives? Where are the videos/screenshots of gameplay? I mean, we haven't even seen the graphics of ONE of the versions in real-time gameplay.

And what about the questions that PR talk and videos don't (necessarily) answer? What resolution do the console versions play in? What, if any, anti-aliasing? And do they both run in competent, near identical frame rates?

So Crytek, how about you give us some REAL answers? Anyone can take advantage of PR talk.....but can you take advantage of both the Ps3's and 360's hardware?
