interesting… i dont know why, but i EXPECTED the ps3 version to do better. guess keeping shooters on 360 is still in effect.
not always, homefront looks better on ps3, just saying lol, but i agree with ya, im def getting this for the 360 i cant believe the diff in the two.
the diff in them is like what it used to be back when they both came out, at this point in time with more and more games looking equal this should not happen.
shame on you crytek
Wow, I have not seen a more definitive comparison on here in a long time. I own both consoles but always buy MP games for the PS3. I will be passing on Crysis 2 completely now. As for Homefront, some things look better on the PS3 and some on the 360. But both versions look horrible so it’s kind of moot.
not the homefront is not better in ps3, it seems that they used a xbox 360 arcade and textures giving the load dvd disk are slower to load, but running hard disc link xbox 360 the game looks great the textures load much more quickly, I disregard the head to head the homefront, the fact that the game running on my xbox 360 elite for the hard disc, the game was perfect textures load faster, in general the game was better than the ps3 version in my opinion.
i thought about homefront when writing that but.. i dont want homefront..
I just beat the game for the PS3 and it’s trashed, there are so many bugs in this shitty game OMG a lot console gamers going to be mad…
I’ve played both the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3′s leaked versions of Crysis 2 (not the demo) on a friend’s CFW ps3 and j-tag 360. The 360′s runs with fairly little tearing and framerate loss and looks pretty good with minor bugs but with lot of very low textures not all but a lot, and the ps3′s version runs pretty bad, (when compared to the 360′s version) with a lot of graphics bugs, but with mostly higher res textures, more profound heat distortions, and in some places better lighting. From my first hand experiance i would call it a tie. The 360 runs better but looks the worst out of all the versions, and the ps3 looks fairly better but runs horrible. If you have a good pc buy it for it, its a good game I am enjoying it but its still flawed on both of the consoles.
There are about 20 videos in youtube that shows xbox 360 running it at 30fps without frame drops (only in checkpoint areas)and all previews that i read tells that the graphics/sounds are impecable on xbox. in the ps3 scene ppl are complaining about frame drops and washed colors. U dont need to lie. The PS3 version of crysis is bad.
Wow, the xbox 360 version looks definetly better, the ps3 version looks washed out, i didn’t believe the rumors untill now, there are some things apparently putted in different positions, like the tree in the 3rd pic, i’ll wait for the perfomance analisis.
The second pic is not the same part of the map, u should fix that cause people starts to think there is a lack of details on the ps3 version.
Man , after the last screens posted i really dont know what to think xD, there are some things the xbox 360 vesion doesnt has, like some shadows, but for my eyes, the ps3 version still looks like washed out.. even though, both version look good, i think and im not sure.. the xbox version looks better.. but hey, let’s wait for the retail version and full analisis
Aparently the servers of LOT are colapsed, way to guys
, everyone is using ur Information :-p
“It looks just like the 360 version. Other than the key prompts you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.” The PS3 version runs the same as 360, 30 FPS and in 3D, you know everything.” Quoted from Crytek Executive Producer, Nathan Camarillo.
THOU LIEST!
Ooohh, thou shalt burn in damnation…
The resolution of PS3 version is undoubtedly 1024×720. But gosh, Camarillo can’t tell the glaring difference.
They also said it’d be the best looking console shooter too.
Sorry Crytek, Killzone 3 (hell I reckon Reach looks better than this is some areas) still looks better even with your real time GI.
Oh dear the PS3 version just looks… bad by comparison. Wow.
Both versions have great graphics, but i think its a xbox 360 win. Lets wait the final version to be sure.
Once again, a company talks about how they will “utilize PS3′s full potential” but falls up short to even games like COD. That is pathetic.
And just to elaborate, I used to think very highly of Crytek. Achieving what they did with Crysis 1 was phenomenal, but it shows they are x86 architecture oriented and don’t know how to use the PS3′s CBE.
maybe they meant utilizes every button of the controller
i think sushi hit the nail on the head with that statement
or maybe ps3 is just a ile of steaming cow dung!! makes good door wedge though lol!!!
It sucks that it doesn’t look as good on the PS3, but I don’t agree with you about it not looking as good as COD. It actually looks a lot better than COD. The only thing is that COD is a lot, lot cleaner looking.
The frame rate is way better on the 360 version. The ps3 version fails so bad right now that i could not even play it for more then 1 round!
Be sure to relay that message to Camarillo.
Here do it yourself lol.
http://www.facebook.com/ncamarillo
Yeah, I was going to mention that. The screenshot comparison can’t show that, but I am sure LOT will get to that in the full comparison.
When I turn my gun the frame rate stutters a lot compared to the 360 version, which is actually very smooth.
For me that was almost a bigger difference than the lower image quality.
WTF?!
Well, I’m doing the download of the DEMO now, but serious…..the DEMo of Xbox 360 come first and PS3 later and look at THAT!!!!
I’m EXPECTED a Tie really -______________-”
at first, some screenshots seemed pretty nice with the blur, but as soon as everything loaded… i’m disgusted and furiously disappointed in crytek.
they’re nothing but talk. next time, crytek, stop talking and start learning.
WOW, Major fail Crytek. That sucks. I was really looking forward to this game.
The framerate seems as good as the 360 version though. I don’t see anything jarring about the framerate. Feels and looks roughly 30fps
I’m still not impressed. In all honesty, even the PC version is very poorly done.
I canceled my pre order today actually.
The multiplayer is very boring, only thing I want to play is story…and for story only I’ll wait till its 20-30$.
Anyways, between ps3 and 360, some pics (even with the blur) look pretty good on ps3 when compared to 360.
But the clean textures clench it for me. The 360 is the choice in my opinion. ALthough from ppl talking on the internet, they made it seem like it was much worse on ps3.
Thanks for the H2H.
I wouldn’t go as far as saying they fail as devs, considering Crysis 1 is still one of the most demanding and best looking game for 4 years running.
This game was clearly a way to make money, nothing else. This was Crytek’s money in the bank statement:)
I agree. The 360 version looks better but they both perform about the same. I don’t notice any major framerate issues in the PS3 demo (and even the 360 had some framerate judder).
However, the PS3 version still looks excellent and there’s no screen tearing that I can detect (there’s screen tearing on the 360… small amount, but it’s there).
I don’t agree with you on either point. I immediately noticed the more stuttery framerate when I would turn my gun. On the 360 it was very smooth.
Here is an analysis that was done on the 360 demo and it was found to almost perfectly stick to 30fps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrtOkNOgm1Q
It definitely felt smooth to me.
I also didn’t see any screen tearing in the 360 version. But it is nice that there isn’t any screen tearing in the PS3 version either. I hate screen tearing with a passion.
Wow, I think it looks and runs great on the PS3. I’m playing it right now. Nothing seems to stand out as bad (by the way, I own a PS3 and 360 and played the demo on both).
The 360 has framerate judder as well, so it feels the same to me.
I can’t wait to see the head 2 head of this (for performance).
The graphics still look great!
hey i agree with ya liquid, i played the pc demo and it was horribly behind what the first crysis did in terms of graphics i was disgusted with crytek.
i mean when crysis came out it blew everything away, and now after playing the pc demo maxed and comparing it with crysis its def not up to the standards of the first, so im just getting this for the 360 instead.
shame on you crytek, you messed up the consoles and the pc version
Crytek you fail as a developer. I really wanted to buy this game for the PS3 instead of the xbox. I think I’m going to skip the game period… the xbox version doesn’t run that well as it is… then this version appears to look worse. hmmmmm maybe I’ll just use this $60 on something else

Oh, and by the way… the 360 has screen tearing and I couldn’t spot any on the PS3 demo! WIN!
The ps3 version actually looks pretty good when you’re not comparing it, but my god, is the performance all over the place. Sometimes it’ll play great, then go straight down the shitter for 30 seconds or so. It’s been a while since I played the 360 demo but the two didn’t seem that far apart except for performance.
Unacceptable. Goes to show how much full of shit developers are these days. Whatever, I’ll just go for the PC version anyway. I didn’t have any hope for either console version after playing the 360 demo.
Hey guys thanks for all the comments!
I just want to throw this out there.
keep in mind that this is still a demo and we all know that a game shouldn’t be judged solely by it’s demo. Hence, Dragon Age II / Mass Effect 2. Besides, personally I think this is going to be a kick ass game regardless. Anyhow, you guys have a good night and enjoy!
Isn’t this H2H a bit pointless. Wouldnt it had been better just to wait for the final game next week.
It would if it weren’t for the fact it’ll be about 3 weeks before LoT brings us the final H2H. It took them 2 weeks after release to get the Bulletstorm 1 up online, probably well after everyone had bought it.
I know the guys don’t get copies a week early like sites like Digital Foundry but some of these H2H’s are pretty much pointless unless your waiting a few weeks before making a decision about what format to buy it on.
Man, I still haven’t bought Bulletstorm. Man you must have plenty of them green backs.. Cause this brother is striped buck naked for that cash. What I’m trying to say is, you got to butter that potato before baking it baby!
Spread that butter!
Isn’t this H2H a bit pointless. Wouldnt it had been better just to wait for the final game next week.
A lot of people on the mycrysis.com forums are pretty pissed. They do mention Thelensoftruth as the best website to go to for comparisons though.
You say well, but after what we saw on this demo we cannot expect real big difference in the final release. Just because the issues are like a gulf between the two versions, it not only question a simple framerate or screen tearing that can be corrected with code tweaks. Here we speak about lower resolution, textures, DoF level, Lighting and Shadowing technique etc… In fact and to be honest, the PS3 version of Crysis 2 can be compared as the early first multiplat shooters launched in the first years of the console, no more, no less… :/
Based on this analysis, it’s a definite 360 win. I too expected the PS3 version to perform at least identical to the 360 version (given Cryteks’ words), but this clearly tells a different story.
Guess we need to see what the single player looks like before knowing for sure, but this already appears to be a 360 win.
Just so you guys know.. the Xbox 360 demo & PS3 demo are completely different builds.
I know this because of three differences between the two..
1. PS3 demo only has one brightness setting (which is good, I kept fidgeting around with the two control settings in the 360 demo ’cause it was always too dark, too bright etc etc..), 360 demo has gamma / contrast & brightness settings.
2. NAT Type notice at the main menu has been moved from top-right to bottom-left
3. There’s now a cool looking 3D character model on the “game over” screen
This is embarrassing! Crytek REALLY dropped the ball – seriously, PS3 owners, boycott this shit – this is worse than RDR. Lower resolution, poorer lighting, lower resolution textures, no color calibration, unstable framerate – why should ANYONE pay for this on the PS3? Hell if the PS3 really WERE cracked, I’d pirate this shit – hell I think I’ll just pirate it on the PC to make a point. Fuckin’ Crytek – so much talk, no walk.
I’m gonna be back later today with a list of their bragging about how they know PS3 and how their piece of shit game will wipe the floor with all PS3 exclusives before it. Dream on.
Crytek not being able to meet our expectation doesn’t mean that you can steal anything from them by pirating the game.When you pirate a game, it’s your own fault.
Well i think this clearly has to be given to the 360 as a win but the ps3 version by no means looks bad!!!!
Couple of questions remain to be answered though is the 360 version being compared the first or second demo released. If its the second then its not really a fair H2H because the 2nd demo was quite an improvement over the first on 360.
PS3 owners please remember this is a demo, it likely wont represent the final build qaulity so please dont jump the gun on cancelling pre orders etc………..wait for a full analysis.
I seen some HD videos of the single player mode on PS3 the other day and it truly looks stunning(Much sharper than the above shots for one)
Much will be revealed in a weeks time i suppose
You are really optimist !
But only few days until the game launch we cannot expect a revolution that can improve the PS3 version to the X360 level. Sorry to say that, but the demo that you play show what the final release will offer you…
Def. an xbox game.
PS3 version is definately running at a lower resolution. Lighting effects have been pared back too. Let’s hope the retail version is much better. Even if this version is crap, this is Crytek’s first foray into console gaming and as we’ve seen with other multiplat game engines, they always improve.
I can’t believe what I see with this PS3 version of Crysis 2 after all what they says about their ability to offer us an perfect shooter with technical advantages never saw an expected on our consoles. The PS3 version can be judged as an “Bayonettade” : an poor port of a game specifically developed on and for the X360 platform. Crytek lost everything in that “game”, the reputation and players like me that have expected a real good game with a rendering that can manage with the Killzone serie in technical words.
The result may be that the PS3 version will get a very poor sales and no studio will buy their “revolutionary” engine (so pathetic…) to create some futur games.
How disappointing and frustrating situation for all the PS3 Owner that have loved the first Crysis (on PC ^^) and betted a lot on this new sequel… :/
The ps3 version has better depth every thing isn’t stacked one after another like watching an old lcd tv with no contrast ratio everything at the front of the screen.Accept its blurry as hell hopefully its an old build and thier using it to test thier online infastructure.
Dream…. Dream, like the song
thanks crytek for being another dev who says fu to the pss community with a horrible port. i don’t get it how can a company allow such a trashy port like this when crytek themselves said the ps3 is going to look the best, yep turns out they lie lie and lied some more.
PS3 looks burred and washed out. The demo code probably makes it worse than the final version will, but no one can say for certain at this point. All we know for certain is that as of right now, things aren’t looking good for PS3 gamers.
Yeah, indeed. I wondee whats happening to these developers latelly, ps3 is a powerful hardware and still owned. But the real owned are those lazy programmers from each 10 games released, ps3 gets owned, instead of tie as it should be:
Assassins creed btitherhood: OWNED
Dragon age 2: OWNED
Dead space 2: A HAPPY TIE
Mass effect 2: TIE (one lacks what the other has)
Bulletstorm: OWNED
Blackops: OWNED
Homefront: OWNED
Crysis mp demo: OWNED
WTF???
Dragon Age 2? Homefront? Are you fucking insane?
well, you see, there is a stupid problem preventing me from actually taking a 2nd glance at crytek: they supposedly developed it at the same time between all platforms. if that were true, there should already be a ps3 build of the demo, and they can’t win if this is that build or even if this was a port of the 360′s demo.
inconsistent demo releases and boastful talk without positive results means, to me, that they are belittling my choice of purchase. a developer that doesn’t put the effort to put out the game properly does not warrant my money, respect, nor attention.
Its not looking good for ps3 owners but hey! That’s why KZ3 was made

Shame on Crytek for this port !!!
The PS3 version looks so frigging blurry, hello, GTA IV !
Anyone having doubts about the PS3 version might want to check out a vid thats on youtube from the demo.
Just search for “crysis 2 ps3 demo beta first impressions”
You get about 8 mins of footage from the mp with a guy giving some commentary. Its clear too see from the vid that the PS3 version is no slouch on the graphics front and the frame rate seems very solid.
The guy does mention that he’s played both console versions and that the 360 prob does have the edge graphically but as i said before you can see the PS3 version is still very easy on the eye.
Certainly watching that vid was a lot more informative than the above images. Im a big fan off LOT but i have to say that in this instance the comparision pics are certainly not doing the PS3(or the 360 for that matter) justice
Am so sorry for that… Do you want a gun to put yourself an end to your misery??
Stop posting, ZolRak. I don’t even know how you can possibly come up with a response like that for a comment like his. Are your fingers currently connected to your brain at the moment?
I’m amazed your not banned yet. Seriously, post something constructive for once in your life. Is that really so difficult?
Well that wasn’t unexpected…but yet
there’re almost about 400 ps3 owners who think Crysis 2 looks better on their console…
is there an answer for that? Please, if you know it reply me…
As far as I see, the xbox 360 version looks superior. Ironical, as Crytek itself stated that the ps3 version would look and perform much better, being the best looking fps game on home consoles. They have failed to achieve this goal. By the way lets wait for the final build of this game hit the stores and the definitive head 2 head
Whew!!! I went through every comments,
but really the question is why would they bother developing PSs game since they can keep the quality up to the same quality to 360.
Sorry I meant since they can’t keep the quality up to the same quality in 360.
It is quite interesting years ago Crytek said their engine runs better on PS3(Cry Engine 3)then E3 2010 showed up, it seemed like Microsoft bought them, regarding their demo was Xbox 360 and they announced exclusive game for Xbox 360. Then boom! Big shock! Beta released only for Xbox 360, then beta ended and demo released for PC/Xbox. “Dude I think we forgot PS3, lets release it two weeks later” If the version IGN reviewed was this, why waited 2 weeks? Ladies and Gentlemen, you can clearly see here, money can buy anything.
Didn’t Crytek come out and say that the PS3 version was running a little smoother than the 360 version? From the demo, it seems to be a little worse, but not jarringly worse.
360 wins for homefront and crysis 2 then.
Fantastic.
Crysis 2 Demo? Yeah sure it is better for 360. Homefront? No, if you think other way around you need glasses, thicker ones.
Yea, Homefront was ps3 all the way, i even thought maybe LoT got the two mixed up lol
Dear LoT Staff,
Second picture is not the same. You are showing some other stairs on Xbox 360 version.
You know guys, I have a theory about this one – given the look and poor performance of the game on PS3, I wouldn’t be surprised if Crytek UK (formerly Free Radical, of Haze fame) designed this version. Haze was a sub-par game in the technical department as well, and I can see a lot of the same traits cropping up here….
Anyways, let’s not fight here – PS3 users, write on Crytek’s Facebook wall and let them know how you feel – it’s the least we can do. Keep the tone respectful, but let them KNOW if you’ve cancelled a preorder or skipped buying entirely – that way they’re informed, and won’t end up writing off poor sales due to a “lack of market”.
As consumers, social media like Twitter and FB are extremely powerful tools at our disposal, as we can show both corporations and the public simultaneously our feelings about their products.
Crysis 2 appears to be an excellent game, but its presentation on PS3 is shoddy and is a slap to the face of the PS3 community.
Once again, if you find the demo we’ve been treated to today abhorrent, let them know.
I just wrote something about it in their facebook, I hate false promises.
The LIES by Crytek. The game sucks on the PS3 i’m not even going to lie. I have played the 360 demo over and over and then finally I download this and it’s utter @#% compared to the 360 version. 360 version has higher res, higher fps, better lighting, better textures it’s ridiculous. I actually wanted to buy this on the PS3 but it isn’t worth it. Looks like the game is smeared with grease. You can tell the game is running at a lower resolution. They have the nerve to say it runs the same and if you put them side by side you wouldn’t tell a difference. Yeah if you’re high and drunk probably not.
Just played the demo, and truth be told, the textures don’t seem too bad on average size TVs while in motion, but of course, it’s still pretty bloody obvious that the game isn’t running at HD resolution. Here is another funny thing, the game allows system to upscale its resolution to 1080p. Let’s not forget the PS3 isn’t good at upscaling, and having it upscales a sub-HD game is a bad choice overall. But let’s forget all that, there is a far more serious matter. Texture pop-ins! They’re everywhere! It’s horrid, I haven’t seen a console game this gen with this many pop-ins before. Not sure how well the game performs as regard to screen tears and frame dips though, it’s pretty hard to observe all that while I’m being shot at.
PS3 version looks badly optimised, a repeat of Bayonetta. Remember the 360 version fits within the eDram frame buffer. That’s 278GB per second of bandwidth. PS3 maxes out at 48GB per second. In order for the PS3 version to look as good if not better, the entire code will have to be re-written for the PS3. It’s 2006-2008 all over again.
Not necessarily…this is just a really old build. Like stated before, there are settings present in the 360 version that aren’t available in the PS3. Also, the intro video on the demo shows gameplay of the PS3 version, and the colors and overall sharpness look much better than ingame.
Also if you look on YouTube you’ll find commentaries of the E3 Crysis 2 PS3 demo, and you’ll see it looks very good graphically, and runs very well.
ltired of excuses about sony fans for the consoles sony always duped everyones everybody with all the consoles they ve done before laughing them with their specs and say anytimes they have the more powerfull consoles marketing is the best thing the truth is the ps3 is not the most powerfull console xbox 360 has better architecture better vidéo card and more memory and use of itplus 10 MB CACHE ON THE VIDÉO CARD and take less memory for the opérating systeme for the console so the thruth is the 360 is a more powerfull machine than the ps3 and every programmer can tell you the same thing and of story and the weird thing in that l m myself a ps3 fanboy but i known the real specs of both consoles the only thing ps3 has better over the 360 is the cell processeur but is a little complex to work with and when it sa port game the devs don t have time to lose for optimisation when a console or machine is supérior to another one the port should be equal tie or better than the inférior machine and it s not the case in this gen the 360 won almost every time there s a reason for that and it s not the fault of the programmers but the 360 is a better machine with more memory and better vidéo card end of story sony has good firt party on their side like naughty dog guérilla games and sony santa monica and those company don t work on the 360 so don t compare exclusifs when there not on the 360 these 3 company devs are god developpers
Crack is a powerful thing..
oh god, wall of text formed from stupidity…
stupidity for you kage56 because you re blind by your fanboyism if you read me correctly my favorite machine and games are ps3 3 games since psi1 but what s insinde the 360 except the cell are better in the 360 l m not mad at you at all you have the right to say whatever you want but l saw no real respond from you to my lessson of those machine and that s prove that you dont know nothing about what s insinde those console you re maybe a young guy and l was like you before blind and duped by sony trash tacking l don t blame you l accept your oppinion and l really like my ps3 l prefer buy my game on the ps3 because she is my favorite machine and does not have the red light problem the 360 has so l bought most of my games on ps3 but l just don t beleive their trash crap about the hardaware so powerfull they did the same thing with the ps 2 and she was the weakest of the three xbox 1 and game cube had better hardware and l m ready to bet my money that the xbox 720 will be better console than the ps4 sony will fail again in their console in some departement like vidéo card or memory again sorry if l hurt you with my comments have a nice day
keep on trucking, boy. someday you’ll possibly grow up to make sense.
I love how people are voting for the ps3 when the game is clearly superior on the 360.
Lets not forget that this is a demo people. Things could be radically different in the final build.
Unfortunately nothing that couldn’t be expected
I’ve always said every time a developer talks up the PS3 version, it ends up being trash.
Maybe in it’s own right it looks good, but it’s clear the PS3 version didn’t get the same love the 360 version got.
I’ve started to get used to this though. I’ll just buy from a developer that does give the PS3 the love it deserves.
If that’s the case you’ll only be buying ps3 exclusives. But that an’t a bad thing skillet!
Fillet they that fish baby!
From time to time there’s a quality PS3 version of a multiplatform title. Then again that’s usually because PS3 is the lead… But I’ll certainly continue buying them!
I have always appreciated the info coming from this site. But recently I seen the comparisons on here for Homefront and the PS3 version looked much better. I almost bought it but decided to accept the worse visuals and get the Xbox version because of the bonus map and the 30 day DLC exclusivity. Well I seen the same quality on the Xbox version **until** I adjusted the settings on my TV. Makes an extremely noticeable difference. And from what I have read about the PS3 copy of Crysis 2, you have to change the XMB settings for the game to 720p. It will default to 1080 for some reason and the game look bad. I checked it and the game displays in 1080p for some reason. But since I have yet to be able to connect to a game, I haven’t experienced the PS3 version yet. But keep in mind that the Xbox version had the same problem with the first demo release. I didn’t have any connection issues with the second demo release nor did I have problems with lag too often.
LOT captures the gamz’s at source so adjusting that B/C is pointless since that capture thingy wouldn’t even capture it. Beside I don’t think that they even count that jazz in their comparisons.
All that butter needs to be spread..
In terms of the Demo, the 360 is the clear winner. But I am going to wait for the final product.
I just watched the PS3 gameplay footage that was released by EA themselves and the framerate looks very smooth and playable. I wonder what build that is.
One thing that is bothering me about this game though… for some reason the PS3 button symbols are squished down, like when the indicator comes up to do a stomp, the circle button looks like an oval.
Weird.
Also, the cloak looks different than the 360 version, so I wonder what that’s all about. That might be another sign that it’s an older build.
The button indicator is “squished down” because of the low resolution the game is running in.
several images are not the same place or are in different position.
PC>PS3>X360
When you guys @ LoT captured these screens, what resolution was the PS3 demo at?
I’ve read that the PS3 demo forces an upscale to 1080p by default, taking a hit on the graphics, and once you force the resolution to 720p (by disabling the 1080i/p outputs in the XMB menu) that the game looks better.
Personally, I have not noticed any big graphical differences between the two versions.
