Battlefield 2 - EA

The award-winning Battlefield franchise invades the high tech frontlines of modern warfare in the new sequel, Battlefield 2. The game brings the intensity and excitement of Battlefield 1942 into the modern era with enhanced team play and the latest, most technologically advanced vehicles and weapons systems available to man.
 

I just love what this game can do in terms of gameplay and image quality. We had to use FRAPS to measure the performance and by command prompt remove a nasty framerate cap. The results do not lie.

BTW the game by itself does not support these high resolutions, but simply make a little .bat file and insert the following:

bf2 +menu 1 +szx 2560 +szy 1600 +fullscreen 1

Would you believe that you are again looking at 4xAA and 16xAF here? Amazing performance @ 2560x1600 where we still have a ~35 FPS framerate. That's just really impressive for this kind of money !

Call of Duty 2

Call Of Duty 2 redefines the cinematic fighting game. It's a complete wargaming experience with more immense, more intense, more realistic battles than ever before. Beautifully rendered graphics, dynamic lighting and shadows, groundbreaking AI, and choice-based gameplay innovations make this the most intense WWII shooter yet. Go online for Axis vs. Allies team-based multiplayer action, building on the intense Call of Duty multiplayer modes.

With a single card you can play up-to 1600x1200. Call of Duty 2 is SO HARD on the graphics core. The 256MB cards did not have enough space to store the high-res textures at 2560x1600, so we could not test that resolution.

I think we had a driver abnormality here as the scores seem a little off. Nome the less I tried it several times, and the results stand as they are. The X1950 Pro seems to rock COD2.
