Yeah mostly.. but the console ports that have enhanced graphics in PC always require a lot it seems..compared to games made just for PC. I guess when they design game for PC from scratch, it is easier to make it run better and look good at the same time. dunno.

What's funny is that LA said not too long ago(close to console release time) that it was too demanding for the PC

This game should look as good as Crysis with those standards then right?

Not necessarily, but it will look generations better than any console could have hoped to make it.

that's just a typical comp out not to do the development. They could have had the same crappy 1024x768 resolutions with no frills and had it scale all the way up to the highest resolutions possible with AA /AF shadows blah blah but its just easier to do it for a console you have a set bracket you have to work in. PCs to be successful you have to cater to the low end pcs and the high end. Just laziness really.
