i think that it looks decent, but the characters suit looks pretty bad
I'm kind of nervous to see it on a 360. I have a pretty mid range gaming PC and it runs most games better than the Xbox 360 so I'm curiuos to see how something as hardware intensive as Crysis 2 plays out. That isn't to say I'm not excited for it, but it will be one hell of a technical achievment if it runs well and still looks great. (Hey, they did it with MW2, Crysis should be okay. :D )
well, they said it takes place before, so players new to the series (most console gamers) will know what is going onI didnt really like the first one , it had a very inconsistent pacing so im not psyched about this one either

The first Crysis wasn't all that great to be honest. Most console gamers are just hyped because the game has great graphics, and yet they have no idea about what the game is about :lol: .
It's definitely a different style of gameplay, but I like the open-world kind of explore-at-your-leisure type of gameplay. You get to chose between going in guns blazing and taking a place silently and both are equally fun.I didnt really like the first one , it had a very inconsistent pacing so im not psyched about this one either

I did see the interview with...crap I can't remmeber his name, but he did say that PC will be the standard for visuals. The console shots looked pretty good though. I'll probably get the 360 version only because i'm getting cod black ops for ps3. can't let one console feel left out :)I'm kind of nervous to see it on a 360.

It was really goofy to try to use a controller for Crysis on the PC. A friend of mine managed, but ultimately it turned him off the game. He couldn't break away from his console habits.I'm kind of nervous to see it on a 360.

I have pretty much no interest in it because it's just going to be nerfed graphics and smaller environments..

I don't know that the environments will be smaller but graphics will definitely be nerfed. But graphics are nerfed on every console game compared to PC. It's just that consoles aren't scalable, while PC's are, so you can always tweak PC settings and hardware. Or my personal favorite... graphics mods! If you see Oblivion running on a PC with graphics mods, it is woooorlds different than on a console. But that doesn't mean a console version isn't great in its own right. If anyone can do a good PC to console port it would be the Crysis team I suppose. They definitely make good stuff.
It looks good from what I can see, but I don't like the fact that they said it's a "reboot" of the series and it's different. That scares me, is it a reboot to conform to what console gamers are used to? Which is less than stellar graphics. I got a 360, PS3 and PC gaming rig..but I would've loved to have this game the same as the first&2nd Crysis games. But I have faith that this "REBOOT" wont be to dumb it down. (which he said wont be the case..but he's paid to say that)gamer082009well, i believe they say reboot because it is coming to consoles, so hopefully it is nothing to be afraid of, and also it takes place before any crysis game so that new players wont be lost
I think PC will be their main focus. Crysis is hailed as one of the best PC games of all time, they wont let down their core audience.I don't know what to think yet we need to see actual gameplay not just video of the tech demo. I'm worried about the pc version suffering in quality as a result of the franchise coming to consoles like what happened to COD.

I don't think that will be a problem. I mean the screen shots in the vid showed a noticable difference between pc and console. I don't see them going the route IW chose. Like toribor said, I think with crysis having set such a high standard for pc gaming they would be screwing themselvesI don't know what to think yet we need to see actual gameplay not just video of the tech demo.

Ok, it is not a reboot of the series and it is not a prequel to Crysis. This game is considered a reboot because it drops you in the story with no clue as to what is going on. So someone that has never played the first Crysis will not feel like they missed anything when playing Crysis 2. Also, the game takes place 3 years after Crysis, so there is a gap of time between the games also leaving you feeling, "What the heck has been going on for those 3 years" (those that played the first Crysis that is). Crysis 2 is a sequel to the first Crysis. Sole_
SPOILER:
I think it appears that the aliens from the first game are retaliating, or launching a major offensive attack and New York seams to have fallen victim.
obviously, the graphics card in the 360 is crap, i could get a better one in my pc for ~$100Console graphics are not nearly as great as they claimed.
