Eyes bleed still: Unreal Engine 3 vs. CryENGINE2 comparisons

One game engine powers the acclaimed pretty boy Gears of War and is set to drive Unreal Tournament 3; the other elicits the occasional swearing from video previews of Crysis. German site PCGames.de wanted to see how the cutting edge of middleware engines stack up to each other, and did some side-by-side shot comparisons of Unreal Engine 3 and CryENGINE2. Here are but two of their results:

MY EYES!!! IT BURNS!!! - Image 1 MY EYES!!! IT BURNS!!! - Image 2

These are sure to inspire debates as to which achieves what and who achieves more where, but we won’t be stoking those flames this weekend. (Most likely these are PC demonstration screenshots, so we honestly can’t tell how the Xbox 360 and PS3 Unreal Engine 3 would stack up to CryENGINE2, which is still – as of now – PC-specific).
