Real-life vs Crysis in-game - can you tell the difference?

@ 2006/06/07
Crysis seems set to be the best looking game ever released, can you tell the difference between game and reality?

interesting link this one; it about what might happen if the games becomes too realistic when it comes down to player models

Quote:
The Uncanny Valley is a principle of robotics concerning the emotional response of humans to robots and other non-human entities. It was theorized by Japanese roboticist Masahiro Mori in 1970. The principle states that as a robot is made more humanlike in its appearance and motion, the emotional response from a human being to the robot will become increasingly positive and empathic, until a point is reached at which the response suddenly becomes strongly repulsive. However, as the appearance and motion are made to be indistinguishable from a human being's, the emotional response becomes positive once more and approaches human-human empathy levels.

I think those screens come from the XBOX360 version (the one in the link, not attachment)
Comment from Rutar @ 2006/06/07
another thing, it will support dualcore and it WILL NOT support the AEIGIA card


you got to love these guys, always thinking for the people without lots of money

this game is going to punish even the most advanced computer systems. I wonder how they are going to port this to the xbox 360 and still have it look half as nice.

they would lose a lot of sales if they didn't support older hardware, but the game does support DX10 features, which will be Vista only

Everything you've seen has been running on DX9 and normal hardware you can get in the shops right now. It's all normal spec and doesn't even use a dual processor or anything like that, we don't have any special graphical hardware inside these boxes. However, with DX10 and a dual core CPU, you're going to see something very special indeed. When we compare Far Cry to Crysis we're talking about two to three levels better in terms of generations, but if you compare DX 9 to DX10 it's at least a generation better, so there's a tangible difference, visually as well as from the intensity.

they said it will run on XP/2K too and that a console version is not likely in the first place
Comment from jmke @ 2006/06/07
yes, it will run on Vista...
Comment from GIBSON @ 2006/06/07
those are some damn nice gfx, does this thing have a pc version too?
