The Last Of Us, Call of Juarez, STALKER: Clear Sky & Counter-Strike Recreated In CryEngine 3

DSOGaming writes: "It seems that CRYENGINE fans are currently working on recreating Naught Dogs' latest title, The Last Of Us, in Crytek's engine; a concept that has us excited. Before jumping to early conclusions, this does not mean that we'll get a TLOS game powered by CRYENGINE. Yes, it sucks, we know. Still, it will give us an idea of what TLOS would look like in CRYENGINE."

Ellie looks kinda weird to me (the recreation).

[xPhearR3dx]

Agreed. But that detail looks amazing. Had TLOU been on PC, this is probably close to what it would look like. Aside from the weird looking face. What I'd give to play TLOU on PC with 60FPS and graphics like that. It already looked stunning on PS3. Couldn't imagine playing it on PC, or even PS4.

[Conzul]

PS4 please take my money now.

[nveenio]

The PS3 version was already pretty great. I don't see the need to use CryEngine for everything. It is far from the perfect engine.

[itBourne]

This is not what TLOU would have been on PC. ND already develop their models at a much much higher quality then actually makes it into the ps3 game. Plus ND have a stylized look, they are not going for straight realism. Which I find awesome, it gives their games personality. I will agree tho, it would look breathtaking on pc.

[iamnsuperman]

I agree she looks a bit too washed out and anorexic (the face doesn't really fit with her neck)

[HammadTheBeast]

The face is also that of a fully grown woman than a teenager.

[Heisenburger]

Ellie if she gets hooked on crystal meth. Lol

[ABeastNamedTariq]

Right! Lmao.

[andrewsqual]

Because the geniuses at ND were not involved with her manually animated facial expressions.
They should do a ancient Roman times tech demo, that would be great or make a game of that topic with this engine.

[ATiElite]

I have Played STALKER on it's original X-ray Engine and with High Texture mods.

I have played STALKER on the Arma 2 Virtual Reality Engine 2

I have even played Stalker on the CryEngine

But I have to admit Stalker on the CryEngien 3 looks pretty darn good.

[Irishguy95]

Best post apocalyptic game imo. Really outdone every other dev with the atmosphere

[Pintheshadows]

I don't think the colour palette is bleak enough on Cryengine 3. I'd rather just play the original version with all the graphical enhancements. There is something so creepy about how it looks in places.

[ATiElite]

CryEngine 3 looks very nice but i have to agree with you X-Ray engine with Complete mod is REALLY dirty and creepy.

[HammadTheBeast]

Isn't Stalker 4 coming out in a while?

[Rivitur]

No GSC broke up and the team went their separate ways so no plans for S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 (not 4 as those aren't proper sequels) though they did release some early concept art last year for it.

[DeadlyFire]

There is Survarium by Vostek Games. Its basically most of the STALKER team working on a STALKER themed MMO game. So its your best bet for the STALKER game feel in the future at the moment.

[MadLad]

If only . . .
Favorite game series.

[Godhimself_In_3d]

When is the cryengine gonna but used to make a good game. I just haven't seen one yet. The graphics engine is nice but that's all. Just saying.

[Rivitur]

Well timesplitters hopefully but I doubt it's going to to use the full potential of the engine.

[kingduqc]

Okay, because games released on the engine are not at your licking the engine is shit?

Go watch star citizen, that's something to get excited for far more then the copy pasta called 'next gen' titles.

[DeadlyFire]

Well they have a few games, but their grasp hasn't expanded to far just yet.

For 2013-2014 they have CE 4 for Ryse, Homefront 2, Star Citizen, and a couple of Bethesda titles. First big publisher to grab interest in their engine really since the first CE.

CE3.0 titles are coming as well. Enemy Front, Archage, State of Decay, Evolve, Shadows of the Eternals, and a few others.

[imt558]

Original Ellie looks better to me.

[MidnytRain]

Obviously. If ND had a hold of this engine it'd make the original's visuals look dated.

A lot of people here seem to be commenting on the accuracy of Ellie's model, and not the graphical fidelity, which is confusing.

[Funantic1]

Ryse will look great with Cryengine 3. Can't wait.

[cyclindk]

STALKER please :)

In the last video, anyone else get a little disoriented looking at the ground, which was spectacularly "bumpy" but had a noticeable radius to which the bumpiness effect seemed to increase/decrease based on the distance from the camera. It seemed to kick in close enough to see it happening and that was pretty jarring to the eye, almost the way alisaing is jarring when a game isnt running any AA. Realy awesome though if that can be worked out, adds real depth to everything.

Maybe someday hardware will be powerful enough to simply make all objects, surfaces and terrain from billions of polygons and bypass the need for coding tricks to achieve a similar effect.

[Austin48]

That does not look like Ellie at all lol

[plaZeHD]

Naughty Dog's Ellie models looks a lot better.

[pop-voxuli]

Sorry but TLOU looks better originally w/o CE3.

[C-H-E-F]

They should leave PS3 exclusives alone, TLOU def. looks better on PS3 wtf is this crap? Ellie looks like a 14year old on crackhead.

[sorane]

Naughty Dog should hire these guys. Looks awesome. All you people saying the original looks better need to get your eyes seriously checked. Guessing it's just the usual haters jealous cause you won't have these kind of graphics for another 10 years.

[C-H-E-F]

Or is it the usual PC Haters, hating because they haven't had great games like this since well the last great multi-platformer. All yall do is boost about graphics and graphics... gameplay makes the game GREAT, graphics make the game bearable, Arma 3 is a perfect example looks stunning until you play in 3rd person with those weak behind animations that I could've done in 3rd grade and bland gameplay. At the end of the day PS3 exclusives > ANY PC Exclusive when you way them pound for pound. PS3 exclusives don't rely on modders to make a games, gameplay fun or more exciting. haha PC gamers and their hating.

-GreatnessAwaits

[sorane]

Ahh the typical ps fanboy reply that makes zero sense.

"At the end of the day PS3 exclusives > ANY PC Exclusive when you way them pound for pound."

That is just laughable and just shows how much of a fanboy you are. Have fun with your 6-8 hour games kid :) The exclusives I play last 100's of hours and take actual thought.

"gameplay makes the game GREAT, graphics make the game bearable,"

Funny considering basically every console exclusive has the EXACT same gameplay that's been copied over and over again. It's where innovation goes to die. Just look at the "next gen" exclusives and all you see is the same old tired generic third person action games and generic shooters. Makes me sleepy just looking at them. Not one even offers a tiny sliver of innovation.

[Jovanian]

@sorane

hit the nail on the head

@CHEF

'boost'
'way them'

the hell is wrong with your spelling? and are you really going around saying 'greatness awakes' like a little sony lapdog whenever you get the chance? Sure I liked my ps3/360 back in the day but that kind of devotion is just pathetic

[LeoDDestroyer]

I think you need your eyes checked if you think that looks better than the original. I'm not saying the cry engine is bad but that Ellie is.

[sorane]

Yeah cause she looks so great in game.......

Think it's time to take your goggles off. Cryengine wins hands down and it's not even close........

[Inception]

That Ellie looks so f*kin weird.

[SynestheticRoar]

The recreation looks crack out to me.

[Jovanian]

obviously the likeness isn't 1:1, but it is an admirable fan recreation, and you can't really deny the fact that the game would look better with higher resolution, better textures, and the like. its like sculpting a master work and then selling a polaroid photo of the sculpture to people, really

[Zizi]

I kinda hate that new Ellie's face. I prefer the original one.

[kaozgamer]

lol ellie sorta looks like tess

[Rodent85]

how about NO

[621infamous]

What the hell happen to Ellie?
