    And no not the Anime cartoon. Probably old news to some, but its getting closer to release. Uses Dunia engine (Farcry 2) taking place in a very lush alien world, Looks freaking awesome, due out this december and based on the upcomming movie from James Cameron. Has a nice variety of alien life, can ride on beasts and play as human military or as alien Na've. Variety of plant life is amazing as well and looks like it has full day/night cycles, not sure if its open world play or not but looks it. certainly one of the better looking games to release this year. Also comes out on consoles.

    Hm... not sure if i'm excited about that, the engine is good, but nearly as good as the cryengine, we'll see what they can do with it, hopefully better then far cry 2

    It looks great!Looking forward to this one!
    Farcry 2 had great looks but also had a bad and superficial storyline...

    Setting the bar high??? lol Anything is better than Far Cry 2lol

    The concept is pretty cool, but sadly for those graphics it should not be playing in game as choppy as it is.. this scares me a bit..
    hopefully they'll be able to optimize it a lot by release

    I dont think cause it uses the same engine necessarily translates to being anything like FC2. This game is 3rd person, same company but different team of people working on it. This game is 4 years in the making. The trailer for the movie looks to have some good special effects too, i may go and see it but the game's storyline is a precursor to the movie.

    I loved Far Cry 2!!! There I said it :nerd:
    Then again I am from Africa and the environment was very well done and I love the fact that some of the ai spoke my language.

    On topic: I will go and watch the movie just because off James Cameron, merely because of the fact that he made my all time favorites, Terminator 1 & 2

    masterchiefx2 we all know you play far cry 2 on the sly :p

    on a different note the game looked ok graphic wise compared to some games anyway, but the storyline etc was horrid

    fc2 didnt keep me interested but seriously..u think the game looks JUST ok?..

    its not as good as crysis for sure..but what is?
    and it runs a HELL of a lot better then crysis..

    i mean really what game had hands down better gfx then fc2...im not saying there arent games with as good or maybe a little better but..i cant name any off the top of my head that just hands down better then fc2..it had good graphics for such a large world

    Im with DementeD, FC2 looked awesome, and it its very well optimized, were you can play a game that looks like that with a G80 card this days? i was playing it on a 8800 GTS 640 OC, and i was runing it at Max with 4x Antialiasing, I would be dreaming if i could play Cryisis at Full res high graphics and 4X aa getting Framerates higher than 60 FPS.

    FC2 looked great and runned great, its a shame that it lacks soo many things story wise and even interactively wise. because you are just very handicaped in the interaction department

    Far cry 2 started to shine for me at max resolutions and aa with ultra high settings..
    So I think if they optimize the game engine with even better visuals this could be killer!

    I thought it looked excellent myself. People don't seem to understand that there isn't much you can do to make the African Safari look beautiful.... it's the desert, don't expect it to be on par with the same type of location as Crysis. And no I'm not saying FC2 was on par graphically with Crysis, to be clear here it wasn't. But that doesn't mean it's not a bad looking game.
