This is soooo pathetic, incredible even! How come Halo3 beat Crysis in Real Time Visuals in a Video Game? You gotta be fucking kidding me...

[Sentura]

it's all about the money

[Thrik]

Heh.

Although they did say 'video game', which used to preclude computer games. Perhaps they still use the word in the traditional sense and don't look at PC games at all. They clearly didn't play Crysis or it'd be the winner.

"Halo 3 Believe Campaign - John 117 Monument Miniature"

I'm having a Spike awards flashback right now...

because halo3 is actually runs at realtime compared to crysis

anyways even if they looked at only console games, there were quite some that looked alot better than halo3.

You can say what you will about the real-time graphics award, but this is one category with an absolute 100% hands-down clear winner.

Oh I absolutely agree! Just like the "Most Addictive Game powered by Dew" award from the Spike TV show I was hinting at...naa all jokes aside, the "outstanding models or miniatures" award seems to be a more genuine award which has been given away before Halo 3's ad people decided to have all these miniatures in the commercials and the commercials did turn out to be pretty cool. There is reason enough to be suspicious though

@Peris/Hessi: Crytek has added graphical features to Crysis/Cryengine2 in real-time, that other studios fail to accomplish in still renders (be it games, movies,...). None of your cynicism will take that away
