![]() ![]() Resident Evil 5 Platforms: Xbox 360, PS3 Release Date: 03/13/09 Genre: Action Adventure > Horror Developer: Capcom ESRB Rating: M Description: The biohazard threat has not ended: Just when it seemed that the menace of Resident Evil had been destroyed, along comes a new terror to send shivers down players' spines. Chris Redfield, returning Resident Evil hero, has followed the path of the evil literally around the globe. After joining a new organization, Chris heads to Africa where the latest bioterrorism threat is literally transforming the people and animals of the city into mindless, maddened creatures. He is joined by a new partner, Sheva Alomar, who lends her strength, intelligence and sharp-shooting skills to the mission. In order to survive, Chris and Sheva must work together to take on the challenges of discovering the truth behind this evil plot. Utilizing a revolutionary new 2-player co-op mode of gameplay, players assume control of either Chris or Sheva and experience Resident Evil in new ways. In Resident Evil 5, Capcom has players fearing the daylight as much as they have feared shadow in previous games. ______________________________________________________________ ![]() Crysis Platforms: PC Release Date:11/13/07 Genre: First-Person > Action > Shooter > Sci-Fi Developer: Crytek ESRB Rating: M Description: A colossal asteroid crashes down to Earth. The North Korean Government quickly seals off the island chain, claiming the mysteries of the asteroid for themselves. The United States responds by dispatching an elite team of Delta Force Operators to recon the situation and report back to the Pentagon. Amid rising tensions between the US and North Koreans, the asteroid suddenly bursts open, revealing a massive, 2km high alien ship. The ship generates an immense force sphere, freezing a vast portion of the island and drastically altering the global weather system. The invasion of Earth has begun. The two rival nations unite to stop the aliens and save mankind. The newly formed alliance fights epic battles against the marauding Aliens. With hope rapidly fading, the player must lead a crack squad through lush tropical jungle, harsh frozen landscapes, and finally into the heart of the alien ship itself for the ultimate Zero G encounter with the aliens. Crysis offers players a highly immersive FPS experience in which they will have to adapt their tactics, weaponry, armour and gameplay style to survive and defeat the alien invasion. ______________________________________________________________ ![]() Final Fantasy XIII Platforms: Xbox 360, PS3 Release Date: 03/09/10 Genre: Role-Playing > Console-style RPG Developer: Square Enix ESRB Rating: T Description: In Final Fantasy XIII, you will embark on a journey through the cityworld of Cocoon and the outerworld of Pulse. Along the way, you will encounter diverse allies who will fight alongside you. Execute powerful attacks with weapons and magic, and summon the enigmatic Eidolons with an evolved Active Time Battle system. Experience seamless transitions between real time gameplay and in-game cinematics. Do you have the courage to face your destiny? ______________________________________________________________ ![]() Super Mario Galaxy 2 Plaftorms: Wii Release Date: 05/23/10 Genre: 3D > Action > Platformer Developer: Nintendo ESRB Rating: E Description: This adventure for the Wii console marks the first time a second 3-D Mario game has arrived in the same console generation. In the game, Mario rides his trusty dinosaur companion, Yoshi, to new stars and the fantastic worlds found there. This 3-D platforming adventure provides longtime video game fans with a fresh round of out-of-this-world challenges in the style introduced in the critically acclaimed original. ______________________________________________________________ ![]() Final Fantasy Dissidia Platforms: PSP Release Date: 08/25/09 Genre: Action > Fighting > 3D Developer: Square Enix ESRB Rating: T Description: Cosmos, the goddess of harmony. Chaos, the god of discord. Reigning from distant realms, the two gods had gathered warriors from all lands to lead them in savage war. Cosmos and Chaos were of equal strength. It was believed the conflict would last forever. However, the balance is now broken. Those who answered Chaos's call created an inexhaustible force. And under vicious attack without relent, the warriors fighting for Cosmos started to fall one by one. The conflict that has continued for eons is now about to end in Chaos's favor. The world has been torn asunder, sinking into a vortex of disorder. As for the few surviving warriors- their fates have yet to be determined. ______________________________________________________________ All images and information was taken from Game FAQs. |

It did come out in 2010. This contest covers games from the current generation up to 2010, I think. |

I don't know how to change votes on Polls. I don't believe I have that authority as a member. The backgrounds in Crysis look nice, but the trees and leaves could be better. I mean, you can clearly see that they are just 2D flat graphics. I don't really care for the choppy frame rate either. I'd rather it be smooth. Watch these. No flat graphics, just pure detailed visuals. It's like playing live in a CG movie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ly_jLFuU40 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ly_jLFuU40 Edited by andaryu, Feb 14 2011, 10:09 PM.

The one and only

FF13. By the way andaryu, I personally think you should start placing an image (or perhaps for convenience sake, links to images) or something for each of the games so we can gauge the graphics in case we haven't played them. |

I don't think you can literally switch the votes around, you'll just have to do some re-counting. FFXIII does have some awesome graphics, but IMO, Crysis wins out slightly. |

Good idea Kori. So... Should I just make a new topic? I thought this one was doing well. I can't guarantee that everyone who already voted will vote again. |

Nah, no need for a new thread. If you don't feel like doing the re-counting, I can. |

It's just a giant field of nothing... Let's see how well it does if you cram in as much trees and stuff as Crysis does. And YouTube videos only display 30 FPS. |
