But the point, guys, is that you want to create a picture of ART using real 3d software.

And point being that you are limited with a realtime engine which is IMO for moving pictures...

you wanna make me this in a game lol...?

And trust me when i tell you midday landscape shots in CryEngine s.u.c.k.... that's why i got Vue.

Stuff in a game is designed just for where you go and if you go out of area Crysis KILLS you for that.

Crysis together with Half Life 2 have got the BIGGEST game hype in game history. With half of promo-screenshots of both games being FAKE...One then automatically thinks a game is bigger and better than it actually is.

What is really cool in the Sandbox² is that you can paint  your own forests and walk through :P but that becomes boring.

@silverblade,

how dare you! Stalker is dark and ugly and blegh!
