    @Geno: Well the games you haven't played are chao theory and this game is double agent. There is a bit more action in the newer games and new features like a knife and better over the shoulder view camera angles, however it's still a stealth game, not a stealth action game. I would suggests getting splinter cell conviction instead which is both stealth and action. I'm not sure of the release date however it's the newest game that's not out yet. Also chaos theory didn't work for me on vista, I think there is a drm that wouldn't allow it to be played, you could possibly skip it if stealth games bores you.

    Is there a way to tone down the blood? It's a bit excessive to look like you just took a blood shower from killing some rats...

    Also, is that pixelly depth of field distortion a known issue? I think I had it with The Witcher also, but not any other games...

    @Al3xand3r: There might be something in the config file you can change, (e.g. change bloodvalue 1-->0) but I don't have the game yet so I can't say for sure. I would search there first though. And depth of field is usually built in since most people think it looks nice, but again there should be another value changeable in the config file.  
     
    DAO actually looks better than I thought now that I can see these high res screenshots.

    @Al3xand3r: I don't notice any pixely depth of field distortion  for any of my screenshots.  Your screenshots are at 720p though, maybe your using a hdtv.
     
    I also wonder how the screenshots looks to those with a low rez monitor than mine, hopefully it's clear enough and you can see the detail or the actual screenshot on your monitor. Maybe I should resize it to near 720p resolution and post screenshots like that instead even if it might lose some of the detail.

    The visual distortion I was talking about can be seen in one of the screenshots I posted before (the second, look at the guy's shoulder pad's metallic edge and you can notice how it becomes destorted and net-like if you look closely) so, no, it's got nothing to do with whatever display I may be using stretching the image. It's right in that actual size screenshot. They're 720p because I've been playing it windowed multiasking but it still has all settings maxed and 4xMSAA. So, I only asked if it's a known issue for certain graphics cards or something as The Witcher is the only other game I encountered a similar visual distortion in and it only happens during dialogue scenes and not actual gameplay, similar to The Witcher again. It's like it's got some weird pixel shader that doesn' t function as it really should on top of the image, it can be annoying on character faces and such.

    I don't have the game installed since my last format because the game has drm and I only get a few installation limits. However I found some old screenshots of crysis warhead. I resized them to fit and i'm testing to see if this resolution would fit on this thread better since I think my full size screenshots are too big to fit the thread. Belive it or not I didn't post any crysis warhead screenshots yet, maybe just one screenshot. The screenshots might look good and exagerated, however it doesn't compare to the original crysis on very high, it doesn't look all that real texture wise. However it's still good enough I suppose.

       I accentially didn't set everything to extra for textures, normal maps and specular maps, it's on aufomatic which isn't the best the game could look. However it's a treyard game, who cares since he doesn't make the best use of the engine's graphics imo, not like your even going to notice. I'm going to use these screenshots because I still think they are quite good. Post more screenshots ppl.

    geno that's the fastest i've ever seen the game run. I can't belive it.  
     
    Also post more screenshots if you have them, don't hesitate to, or i'll have to start posting less if there is less demand for it.

I'll post a few games that were also on last gen consoles.

    M&B is beautiful inside where it counts! Though I'm sure you can post some semi impressive screens in scale & unit count.

    Or simply after the Polished Landscapes mod is released (and maybe the Warband expansion too for other improvements):

    Bah, turns out you need to hit Print Screen to screenshot Company Of Heroes. Been hitting both F11 and F12 (can't remember which game used those) to "make sure" I took one. I'll try and put some up when I play CoH next time. Been playing the British campaign, pretty fun expansions. Wish there was a screenshot function in 360 games (+ cable to connect to computer), that'd be great.

    I started batman all over again due to the format, however I always wanted to post bigger screenshots, I resized it on imageshack to fit the forum, hope it still has all the details that way. Hope you don't mind so many bigger screenshots. I will be posting other games later on. I just want to get this game out of the way.

    Can't speak for 360, I imagine a RTS with a controller is pretty awful. Otherwise it's the best city building game in years.

    Just did the second "Liberation of Caen" mission for Opposing Fronts (I think, anyway...one of the Brits campaigns, Company of Heroes).
     
    And yes, I do use the "Cheat Mod". Makes the game more fun. 
     
    Hmm, Giantbomb seemed to make my pictures go all out of order. Oh well.

    many of these images were shot in 1920 by 1080, and were compressed, leading to some issues, but still.

    @Al3xand3r:

    Absolutely, Ive spent a solid 86 hours in that game and im far from done, I'I added some graphical enhancement mods and an HDR addon, but they led to jome jankiness so i reinistalled the game without it, sometimes graphics just get in the way of a great game.

    Been playing DiRT 2 a bit. Looks pretty good in motion. Runs between 40 and 50 FPS, maxed out at 2560x1600. It's a lot of fun too! :)
     
    You can see the full res images of the following screenshots in my image gallery. There are a few extra ones too. 

     
    Oh and some Trackmania United Forever for good measure. Full res images start here.

    Must have missed the part saying this is a competition. If someone takes the time to run games in slow ass mode just to grab a few screens and show us something pretty then more power to him. Having had the money/will for a decent PC doesn't make you (or me) better than anyone else.

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DID I WIN TEH PRIEZ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!!?!?!?!??!!??!?!!

    Edit: Well, since the challenge was taken up by the thread creator I don't like that competition attitude and will not be supporting this thread anymore, it seems like an elitist thread now going by some comments. Oh well, it saves me the screenshot taking time. Have fun people.

    I took these before when someone challeged my screenshots. These are old screenshots, however I can take new ones if necessary.  
     

    Is anyone referring to my screenshots as being low powered high settings? Sounds like a challege to me. I'll post screenshots with fraps and I have some from another place I posted them in.    
      
    Some of these screenshots I didn't take at fullsize because I took it before for another site, however just look at the framerate counter. Trust me crysis is perfectly playable, I don't see the problem. If it wasn't playable, how could I shoot anyone or get though the game? I can headshot everyone through the entire level. It's you who thinks that it's not possible, you are wrong. 
       
     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     

     

     
     


    I can get newer games with framerate counters if you want, there is no need to challege me just because pc games are sharper than you realised. i'm sure others has higher framerates, however considering the game runs at 30 frames per second on consoles, it's good enough. I honestly didn't mean to use so many screenshots for this post, I had to make a point. Neither do I have to change my posting style of screenshots for one skeptic. I met the skeptic's challenge with this post. I just don't want that dumb counter on my screenshots yet it all runs well. Just remember this post next time.

      There was too many screenshots for my last post so I can't edit it anymore, can't ppl just belive me when I say everything runs well enough? I don't have a problem playing these games. I was going to post new games that haven't been posted, now I have to reinstall existing games like resident evil 5 which looks great btw just to prove that I can play them flawlessly to one skeptic, after this I will not use the framerate counter because I don't want numbers ruining my screenshots. Next time I will ignore your comments and refer back to this page.
     
    Sorry for the lousy framerate sample screenshots, I just started it again and I have no motivation to play this game today because I have to prove it to an individual that I don't have problems running these games. I could of posted alot more other games for these post.

    @HitmanAgent47: I so wish I had a computer that could run recent games really well.
     
    I can run Company Of Heroes quite well, but it does suffer some slowdowns with my sub-par processor. I haven't changed the settings at all though, and it's still playable.
     
    Heck, I can play Red Alert 3 with about just-under medium settings (with VFX at high) smoothly.
     
    Still wish I had money for a better laptop. My friend got one (like, $1300) that can run Crysis at max nicely.
     
    Trying to decide what game to play next to take Screens of.

    @Capum15: I realise you talk about half life 2 alot of how you don't have that game. Can't you just buy the orange box or buy it seperately at steam without buying the whole valve value pack? With the orange box you get team fortress 2 and various other games.  
     
      
    Well since i'm here, might as well post more screenshots, earlier ubisoft ports were shit, wouldn't let you use certain resolutions unless you change configs in notepad as i've done earlier for splinter cell double agent. However later ports has improved.

         @Al3xand3r: I will only say this because I want to adress your comment in a friendly manner. You know it was directed at my crysis screenshots I belive from this yorro guy, where this guy was claiming that I can't run these games at insanely high setting with a low powered rig and to post a framerate counter. I belive it really has to do with crysis, no one thinks the game will run, yet if you patch it, it will. I think you can run it well on your gtx285 btw. I doubt it's because of any other games. Your comment sounded like a snipe at me saying how ppl are running slow motion for a few nice screenshots, more power to them, if it's not direct at me, then who was it directed to? We both had a misunderstanding about a term best bang for your buck in an ati vs nvidia discussion yesterday. This time the word challenge was misinterpreted by you, I had to defend myself that my screenshots are not in slow motion as you said, rather the framerates were high enough and there was no other way to prove that because yurro kept insisting that over and over with his post. What would you have me do, let him make false statements against my framerates? Just because it's indirect, doesn't mean I don't sense who it might be directed at. 
     
    What is happening here is you are withdrawing from my thread because of our ati vs nvidia discussion yesterday, not because of any challenge or elistist attitude from me here. I think that's just an excuse, considering you posted an elistist framerate screenshot of street fighter 4. You mistaken the world challenge as elistist behavior when it's really me defending my framerates of my screenshots, which you can obviously run way higher than me. Don't blame it on me, that's your decision no need for false blame when the real problem with a previous disagreement in a different thread. Dispite that I still have nothing against you and absolute no hositle feelings about it. Ppl disagree all the time, running away isn't a good way to cope with a misunderstanding. I wish we can overlook that discussion we had yesterday.  
      
    Well back to the thread, I decided to buy rainbow six vegas 2 after I posted these vegas screenshots. I really like the graphics, good lighting and good graphics. I was really suprised and will post more of that game. I would like to share that with ppl with this thread. The game is really fun, yet not as exciting or remarkable as vegas.

    Got a little something WTF here.


    I'm not even going to bother trying to explain what the game is about, cause I really don't know. I've been playing it for an hour or two now and I'm in Famine cycle 4. I have two hearts, one in my chest and one in my shoulder. I've fed the sister some Emerald - She talks weird and floats around. I've also put some of my Nerva into the dead trees of the fog to start a color garden. ...Something like that. Yeah.
     
    Full res screenshots are in my gallery starting here.

    The hell? Get some decent reading comprehension Hitman. What I said is what I said and I never implied anything else at all, it's all crystal clear. I never said you can't run Crysis well and yes, it runs absolutely fine on my GTX285, though that has nothing to do with anything I said.

    Tons of people have posted screenshots in this thread without frame rate counters and they shouldn't have to post frame rate counters to justify their posts. If someone wants to show me something pretty even though he doesn't run it very well then that's fine by me, more power to him (I said it in the comment that offended you and I'm saying it again because it's how I feel), and this does not in any way imply I think you run Crysis slow (that guy did not point to any user in particular and I responded to his general comment in a just as general manner).

    It says what it says, it doesn't try to snipe anyone, it stands by whoever may not have great specs but wants to show pretty scenes that impressed him and should not in any way offend people who do have great specs as it doesn't refer to them at all so I don't see why you got so upset over it.

    Simply put, I'm against the dude who questioned the screenshots' credentials and against the fact you took up such a stupid challenge (but hey it's your call, do what you want and I won't stop you from it, I just won't go along with it), so I will post no more screenshots, it's simple.

    I thought it's a thread to post screenshots, not to challenge and compete with each other's e-penis based on specs and how good the games run, and since it came to that, I will no longer take part in it, even though I do run most all of the games shown here absolutely fine, because it's not about my specs, it's about the whole attitude displayed. Feel free to disagree and keep posting, I didn't and won't try to stop you, one does what one wants.

    Still, even if you disagree, instead of understanding that our opinion differs and moving on, you once again twist things I said, add your own meaning (snipe? a comment empowering people with low specs is a snipe at you? you're not the center of my world dude) to them and respond according to that twisted interpretation instead of what I actually wrote, just like you did in the other thread which has no relation to this thread and my comments in it. I should note the part that inexplicably offended you (the snipe, lol) was written long before our argument in the other thread. In short, get over it/me.

    What if I didn't post those framerates? Would I show more class if someone keeps insisting false statements against me? He would kept insisting that I can't run those games well. You think it would be better to not adress it for me and others? I think I did the right thing and it's your decision not to post. You might not be directing that at me, however I doubt I can say for the same for yorro. Maybe I should go ask him directly instead, yet instead I just posted my framerates and it's misinterpted as elitism. No it's not a competition, however there are misconceptions that if a pc game looks good, it doesn't run well, maybe it's console paridigm way of thinking. I dont' have the newest rig, I can still play everything on it just fine regardless. Just for the record, i'm not posting high settings with low framerates and I am glad I adressed that. It's not elistism, rather it's reality. It's also tough not to twist things if you take everything too literally since words can have different meanings to different ppl causing misunderstanding when you think your meaning is the right one and clear which is just your opinion. Also your post has alot of room for interpretation, it's not always crystal clear because of that. Other than that, I adressed the topic of framerates and your comments, that's all I have to say on the topic because I rather post screenshots. He can't say anything about framerates anymore now lastly to others al3xand3r says the truth, he can play crysis well, it's a misconception that others can't run it well enough. I have more problems running crysis warhead than crysis tbh. See you around, I have nothing against you regardless, I don't even care, it's not a big deal. 
      
    Well back on topic, can't remember if I posted these before. I'll have to reinstall a few more games and take screenshots then. I think i'll be going for a ubisoft theme for the next few post. I'll just post some cod 4 for now even if it's an old game, I still think the graphics are good.

    @HitmanAgent47: 
     
    Well, I did get the Orange Box when it came out, but that was for Xbox (awesome games, but not as capable to mess around with like the PC version).
    Anyway, I looked around steam, and while the pack is still pretty awesome, if it doesn't go on sale I'll just grab some other pack they have. The Box is cheaper than the HL2 Pack, and includes more stuff. Besides, the only other games (aside from TF2, Portal and HL) I would play would probably be Counterstrike: Source.
     
    Though I remember Half-Life 2: Deathmatch being free when it came out... And wasn't Garry's Mod free, too? Deathmatch was fun, and I have never tried GM. But I swear Deathmatch was free... 
     
    I'm still going to wait until Christmas to see if they have a sale though, if not I'll probably grab The Box.
     
    Not sure what to play next. I'll probably boot up Majesty 2 or Red Alert 3 though.
