I dunno... I've seen alot of crazy Sandbox pics, and I questioned it.

Look at the pics at the bottom. It's a little easier to tell when you look at the full res versions, but still. It's questionable. You have to really look.

And this is all CE2 shots. CE3 shots are yet to be released, and they have all kinds of new lighting and texture techniques in the new engine.

IMO, it's very easy to tell the two apart. The one on the left looks "not real" is, I guess, the best way to describe it. Look at the leaves on the left side. They don't light like real leaves do. It looks more like a painting to me.

You can tell the difference, but its still pretty amazing how close it is

No the code will be improved. Word is they hired the same people that made 7 so much faster than Vista. It should get 60fps with integrated graphics. :D

It's all in the flux capacitors. They alter time-space around you to give you the impression of 60 fps...

Anybody who thought this could be a real in game shot needs a very swift kick to the head. From the lack of a gun, to the crooked hud, and not even mentioning the hud is exactly the same when sequels 99% of the time change the hud in some way... it slaps you in the face with terrible chop.

Exatly. Also if anyone else wants further proof this is fake just go check out the screen shots they are using to advertise CryEngine 3 (the new engine that will power Crysis 2):

Impressive but still nowhere near photo-realistic. We are still several graphics card generations away from being able to render the OPs fake pic in real time.
