Is this game really running on the ps3/360???

Color me impressed.
In my opinion, crysis is waaay better than 2 and the environment is much better and open.

It's a bargain at 1600 MS points. I already bought the original crysis back in '07, but this'll be fun to run through again and get the achievements. It's a good move by Crytek. I wasn't expecting them to release it this early. I would've expected a few months of PR beforehand.

TheMyst4647d ago

wow, 1200? So that means 20 bucks on PSN, damn that is a steal. I though it was gonna be at least 40 bucks.

@dark
fyi crysis 1 pc maxed out dx10 with the realistic graphics mod = bf3 easily crysis 2 was dx9 native.

anyhow at article crysis 1 on consoles looks good but will never look like its dx10 counter part.

pijinio2124648d ago

so what consoles deserve it even if its made on medium setting not many console gamers had a chance to play it even some pc gamers didnt have a chance to run it at directx 10...check ur self mate...

its 360 gameplay haven't seen any ps3 footage but it looks to be the best looking game on consoles looks better than uncharted 3,gars 3, crysis 2 and everything else on consoles. why don't you see for yourself

http://n4g.com/news/841084/...

still doesn't match the pc version running medium 8xAA 16xAf @1080p though but considering consoles use ancient hardware thats not even as powerful as a dual gpu high end pc from 2005, what crytek has been able to do is astonishing.

the 360 version is inferior to the pc version in just about every way. There is much less geometry on screen(less trees, rocks etc), very low resolution textures, no SSAO, no Godrays, static skyboxes(instead of volumetric clouds available on pc), low resolution alpha effects, not all objects have shadows and those that do use low quality shadows, low anisotropic filtering(or even none at all), much less light sources etc

the color grading in the 360 version does give it a nice look though but overall the 360 version fails compared to the pc version running at the above settings.PC FTW!!!

I'm really amazed what crytek has been able to do with 360 no wonder MS is ditching epic to team up with them(crytek has an inside track on the nextbox like epic had with the 360 during its development) I'm sure Ryse will look even better when it launches

This is the Crysis game I wanted to play and for $20...I'm sold. http://playstationlifestyle...

gravemaker4648d ago

looks like crysis 2 on consoles
low-res textures, low AA, subHD(probably)

and i think its not a good idea to remake first crysis on cryengine3

Paradicia4648d ago

Why would they switch engines??? Cryengine 3 was specifically made with console hardware in mind. It's a perfect basis for rebuilding the first crysis under spec constraints.

No one cares. The whole can it run Crysis is old, dead and stupid. It's also irrelevant, considering only less than one percent of pc owners, own a high-end PC. Second, I believe Crysis wasn't even optimized properly.

TheColbertinator419d ago

Crysis blew my mind back then and still kinda does.

bunt-custardly419d ago

Let's hope the modders can get the other Crysis games working in VR as they use the same Cryengine.

Bioshock still looks fantastic, one of my all time favorites.

Yui_Suzumiya490d ago

Beyond: Two Souls on PS3 can compete with modern day graphics.

SonyStyled490d ago (Edited 490d ago )

Same as Killzone 2 and 3, uncharted 2 and 3, Infamous 2, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3

jasonismoney490d ago

I wish this was entirely true, but you might want to load up Killzone 2 and Resistance 3 again.

SonyStyled490d ago

@jason I watched some gameplay videos of KZ2 and R3 on my full screen. They are on par or succeed graphically to the first person shooters mentioned in the article that also launched on the seventh generation of consoles. Try the same and see what you think

cthulhucultist490d ago

Killzone 3 was super impressive! I could not believe the graphics back then as I was regularly pausing the game to stand in awe looking at the surroundings! Resistance however did not impress me that much. Heavy rain is also another amazing graphically speaking game. It almost felt next gen

Fist4achin490d ago

I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.

SonyStyled490d ago

They did for their day. I recently played gears judgement with on the 360 and the draw distance was so blurry. The characters up close look great though

JEECE490d ago

Far Cry 2 was awesome. In addition to having demonstrably better physics and AI than later games in the series, it had a lot of design decisions that, criticized at the time, have since been praised in games like BOTW and Dark Souls.

iNcRiMiNaTi490d ago

It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good

JEECE490d ago

In terms of art style it still holds up.

Can It Run Crysis? The Only Steam Deck Question That Matters

Digital Foundry: "When Alex Battaglia got his hands on a Steam Deck, this was inevitable, right? So can the Steam Deck really run Crysis? And if so, what type of optimised settings produce the best performance? What's the best balance of features and battery life... and what about 60fps?"
