What do you think will be asthetically better?
I think visually, Portal 2 is far more appealing and DX11 wont change this fact.

Visually - never
Overall - they are two different games

You can't compare them. Crysis 2 is all about action and shooting. Portal 2 is about solving puzzles with a very dark sense of humor. Crysis 2 is the most beautiful game I've ever seen, but the story of Portal 2 will probably be better and the gameplay is more authentic.

On the looks.. nah, but thats not the main point of portal anyway.

But compared to crysis it will be a better second part, because it removes nothing but only add new features.

It adds new gels which allowes new ways of solving the puzzels, it adds co-op. And it will look better or at least the same as protal 1 and probably also improves the physics in game... and god damit you play the same main char as in the first part!...

So it will be a worthy successor and better then the first one in every way.

Exactly, they are two completely different genres.

I think Portal 2 will be more fun. I like clever puzzling more than frenetic shooting.
Portal 2 and Crysis 2 are totaly diferent, there is no way to compare them.

Portal looks like a good game for pacifists.

is it stuppid to compare two absolutely different games

Hard to say which game will be better because they are two diffrent games but there is one thing i know, the support will be much much better then what we got from Crytek!
