The Far Cry series have always been good at implementing water and water physics, and Crysis is a project from the people behind Far Cry.

Far Cry 2 is supposed to have amazing physics in every direction (and it'll be on consoles), with realistic and good looking fire, water (possibly, it's not in island anymore, this is set in Africa if I recall correctly), wind, etc.

And if you're a guy running around in a Hawaiian shirt again, I'll cry.

But yeah, I must admit, Far Cry and Crysis have really nice water effects.

bu then again almost all the graphics in far cry were ace

Oblivion's water looks like oil more than water, and Half Life 2's water looks out of place...or am i the only one who thinks this..

I saw in a documenter that the water is the most difficult think to make in a video game...

it sure is, it takes a masive amount of work to get the water to look corect and Realistic.

Well tbh, I don't usually go around looking at things going "Oooh, pretty.." But I did realise the other day when I decided to play Sudeki again.... Sudeki has THE WORST water graphics...

Played Bioshock Demo the other day, and I agree with what some of you said, it's got some pretty sexier water.

Waverace Bluestorm had average water. Which was a bit if a letdown. I was expecting great water considering, that is what makes up 60% of the races.

havent ever played Waverace Bluestorm so i cant comment on it but i thought oblivions water looked good

Here is a clip. Now I know the water looks good on the surface, but its effects are nothing much at all. About the only things that move are the buoys.
And the ripples at the waterfall are always the same and are not disturbed even when you run through them.
