When using the different texture kits available on the net, Oblivion does not look that much worse then when running on the CryEngine.

CryEnige should look better. I'm not sure however, you have to test both at same time and see for yourself I guess. I've been playing the standard Oblivion, not a modded one (tried it once though).

CryEngine does look better, just take a look at the lightening, water and dynamic weather cycle, also no in/outdoor, everything is the same, you can see that in the last zoom-out in the movie

Indeed, that is certainly cool, I was referring to the static objects/textures.

Qarl's Texture Pack III (1.7 GB): Meshes and textures in Oblivion are now 4 times the resolution of the vanilla textures. Dungeons, architecture, rocks, landscapes, butterflies, snowflakes, and blood splatters are now much, much more photo realistic. A huge 1.7 GB download but well worth it. Beware if you have a lower end PC or only a mid-range graphics card, as this pack could cause severe slow-down and make the game nearly unplayable.
