Useless info: Adam Jones from Tool worked on Jurassic Park.
IMO King Kong has the best CG scene to date when Kong fights those 3 T-Rex like Dinosaurs.
As for the topic, video games are always evolving, but graphics wise, they'll never be on par with pre-rendered CG.

Or are we still 5-10 years out from CGI quality graphics?

Amen to that.  The shock value of Jurassic Park CGI was insane.  I was expecting great CGI in LoTR and King Kong, but when I walked into the theater and sat down for Jurassic Park for the first time..

We've already kinda hit CGI quality. Compare Gears of War to Starcraft's (a 1998 game) CG sequences. Which is better looking?Einhanderkiller

 are you mad? at the rate we're going, next year is a reachable target, or the most is the year after (this is with top end PC's of course), the level of photorealism we have been dreaming abou since the 4-bit era has been reaching with the technical phenimenom that is crysis

I think we are past the rubish CGI Kid shows, We may even be Past toy story but untill some one trys and produce a game with that Art style its hard to tell.

Toy story graphics aren't even that good. darklord888

Videogame graphics are NO WHERE NEAR the level of prerendered CGI from even old movies of the 1990s.

Current realtime graphics are not even close to Jurrasic Park or Toy Story. Not even Crysis comes close. In-game real time graphics have a LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG way to go before they catch up to movie-quality CGI.

The lower-end, lower-budget CGI used in television commercials and television shows from 10-15 years ago, well, I would say game graphics are getting close to that. However, most prerendered CGI used in game intros & cutscenes from the last 10 years are still better than the best realtime graphics. Unless you're looking at really ancient CGI used in 3DO, Saturn and PS1 games from the 1993-1995 timeframe.

Also, peoples opinions don't really count. Neither does mine. It's about fact not opinion. It's a fact that game graphics (even on highend PCs) are technically not at all close to highend or even midrange CGI, even CGI from 5-10 years ago.

The next generation of consoles might get us closer to midrange CGI, but don't expect movie-quality highend CGI to be matched by realtime graphics even in the next 3-5 years as next-gen consoles come out.
