OMFG, Crytek really did it!! squeezed crysis to a 6 year old box(trailer inside)

Not as impressive as on PC's very high(lol at the airplan at begining and the could effect) but a halla impressive job, destrucable trees and huts are all implanted, these guys are unbelievable.

Seems really dumb to do this now...

Its 4 years later, there are other shooters that console gamers and PC gamers want to play.

Goes to show that the game was poorly optimized and not really so " ahead of its time " but yea , they did a good job , though it doesn't really make a lot of sense to release C1 after C2 .

See! You can teach an old dog new tricks!:shock:

I wonder if the next time someone makes a new thread with the topic 'what game has the best graphics,' just how many pc gamers will still list Crysis.

Looks impressive for consoles, but having played it on PC maxed out it looks like a mere shadow, only explosions look about the same, everything else is blocky, textures are like...low on PC, lighting is faaaar from the original, destruction is like a new game (in a bad way) and foliage is not that great but since it's dense it at least masks most of the flaws.

So they're re-releasing a 4 year old game...for consoles? lolok. I guess whinetek is hoping for those blackops sales with this too?

A lot of PC gamers will still be doing that, including me. The console version won't look as good as the PC version. I've seen some footage and screenshots from the console version. It looks like the PC version running at 720p with a mix of medium and high settings. Nothing like Very High on the PC. Not to mention that the controls will have to be adapted for a controller.

Of course it's not going to look like the PC version, It's running on a 6 year old console and it's old hardware. But for all that it looks pretty good.

It's a sad day for PC Gamers when a developer with a reputation like Crytek's spends there time porting Crysis to consoles.-CheeseEater-

I wonder how much better Crysis 2 could have been if they weren't spending time and resources on this.

that actually looks impressive. But on screen it would look crap i imagine. The shadows will be toned down, motion blur removed (sucks anyway) the explosions look worse, and it won't be as high resolution. But its still kind of annoying that it looks like that on consoles. wonder what the framerate will be like. Cos crysis 2's was awful on both consoles

Looks more FUN than Crysis 2 on PC, and you known why? Because it is.

I'll take Crysis 1 or Warhead played at lowest settings over Crysis 2 maxed everyday. If the port is good enought and don't reduce the scale I'm sure that most of console players would discover how great the game is. A shooter like no other (sadly) in this generation.

AAAAANNNDDD now I'm gonna have to play through the first two AGAIN! The music gets me everytime, memories flooding back. I'm really glad console gamers will get to experience this game, it's probably one of my favourite games ever. Played through it so many times! Never gets old.lucfonzy

I think you are both right. The game is beautiful and was easily king when it came out, but it is poorly optimized and IMO far from the best game technically, when it comes to graphics and performance.

This, it wasn't really all that optimized period (but not exaclty poorly optimized). Though they would still have to turn down settings to run it on consoles decently. This doesn't change the fact that Crysis could of definitely benefited from considerably more time in tweaking and testing.

Yes, Why? Because it still looks better on PC that's like saying we can't list Doom 3 during it's time as one of the best or the best graphics just because it was on Xbox :roll: Also Metro 2033 says hi

Looks impressive for a console game.

Maybe now 360/ps3 owners will understand why some PC gamers were frutrated with the sequel

but we could pwn those crysis pics with our crysis pics... >modded on 1080p with aa and af>meduim 720 p

and it seems like some people think that making Crysis multiplat is a bad thing, even when it doesn't effect them in the slightest bit. ocstew

wow, i wasn't expecting this to be real when i first heard of it but this is pretty cool. It'll be interesting to see how gameplay is on consoles though, moving from controls designed from PC, to controls mapped for consoles.29121994

No it doesnt, it just means its running much worse graphics.

HMM let me see, ever since Windows 7 64bit was released their last patch will NOT work on anyone who has this operating system. If you go to their forum you will see how many people have this problem. They IGNORE us and every time I give them an email they just say WE DON'T SUPPORT WINDOWS 7 and NEVER WILL. Quite literally word for word.

And now they release a console port of the game while the game is STILL broken for some of us PC gamers... I CAN'T even play online with the game and I paid FULL PRICE FOR IT.

This is why I will NEVER buy a game from crytek again.

Don't get me wrong I believe when a game gets released it should be on all consoles and PC and should all be played online with eachother but I don't like it when a company like crytek tries to kill off the PC because they fear it will be less profitable for them. Let me tell you if the industry wasn't one big ripoff I would demand a refund for this trash you threw in a limited edition bundle I paid full price for and be done with it. crytek = PC gamers enemy, plain and simple.

From what I hear crysis 2 has extreme problems for most PC gamers aswell, shows you how they care huh.

I haven't tried playing Crysis online in long time but if that's how they are responding that's really bad. Even I have Windows 7 64bit OS, looks like it's goodbye Crytek.

I don't mind what Crytek does. I'd do the same thing if I was in the business of making games.

It's only going to be $20 on console. Who knows, maybe I might use up the remaining amount on my PSN wallet to buy this. If there are trophies, then I am all set!

I'd like to see how they manage the suit modes in the console version. I always found the suit controls in Crysis to be a bit clunky and awkward to use, and was the one area Crysis 2 did improve on the original (in my opinion).

Alot of damage control and vitrol in this thread. Really shows you the mentality of some PC gamers, when they are all bitter over something that doesn't even affect them.ocstew
