Are you for real? The world is annoyingly static, there are barely any physics going on when you actually interact with stuff, the levels are narrow, some textures are extremely low quality including those that were in the original Crysis and were reused in Crysis 2 (Albeit downsampled to accommodate to console's RAM, which is silly no matter how you put it since they had the original ones at hand to use in the PC version if they wanted to).

The game is proved to be artificially locked at console's capabilities. How can you say it looks better?
It looks nice, sure. But better? Hell no.
