Andreas-Sword5546d ago

Seeing these tech demos makes me want Microsoft and Sony to bring on the next generation of consoles!

plb5546d ago

Or just upgrade your PC :)

TOO PAWNED5546d ago (Edited 5546d ago )

Why? You have none of current gen consoles. O yeah, so that you can spend all day on N4G and troll how one console is better then the other, and how cool some screenshots look.
Get the f out of here....

This is why competition is so important. An obvious response to the Unreal demo. These guys are going to battle all year and I have a sneaking suspicion that Kingdoms is going to go after the crown that Gears wears so tightly with over the top melee and maybe even a cover system as well...lol...bring it. I love this kind of stuff.

Dice and the frostbite 2 engine isn't for sale so right now it's Cry-3 and Unreal. What about id??? Doom 4 is around the corner...Rage is releasing this year and COD is using a id modified engine...both running at 60 fps???

E3 will be a bloodbath this year. Crytek claims Kingdoms will be the next be thing...really, prove it...I can't wait.

Burning_Finger5546d ago

Prepare to spend gazillion dollars on your PC alone.. :)

plb5546d ago (Edited 5546d ago )

Well I spent $1200 on my laptop last year and it runs every game out there perfectly fine. Thing is you cannot really compare PC to console because PC is much more than a dedicated gaming device. Mind you you can now get a desktop that performs better for probably half of what I paid now. I cannot run every game on absolute max settings but good enough for the most part. I can run Crysis 2 demo 1280x720 on hardcore and it runs perfect. Funny enough COD Black Ops even on medium settings on PC runs like complete shite and doesn't look 1/10 as good as Crysis 2 lol

paintsville5546d ago

And cryengine runs great on Xbox. If only the ps3 could keep up. :-(

Oh well maybe next time playstation will get more ram, and better gpu.

theonlylolking5546d ago

If you pay attention to the PS3 exclusives you will see that it is crytek's fault that the PS3 runs the cryengine like that. It is not the PS3's fault at all.

sourav935546d ago

Why do you need more ram and a better when you have 6 spus. I assume you are implying that the 360 has a better gpu than ps3, which to some extent I do agree to. Yet, there is only a handful of 360 games which are only close to ps3 exclusives. Like thonlylolking said, ps3 1st party devs have done, and are still doing, a better job than crytek.

Crysis 4 is "on hold" and Crytek is facing layoffs - so what does that mean for the company that was once Germany's biggest games dev + the industry as a whole?

I really want to see a Crysis 4 with all the ray-tracing & path-tracing effects. It would be a shame if they canceled the project. Maybe they could do a kickstarter?

DF
" Crysis is something of a tentpole game series for us at Digital Foundry, with a reputation for being an early adopter of graphics technologies that would later define entire generations of PC and console video games. That includes the likes of screen-space ambient occlusion, sub-surface scattering and ray-marched volumetric lighting, but you could write volumes about just how ground-breaking that first game was "

isarai445d ago

I really hope they come out and push the industry forward like they used to. I miss old crytek

PrinceOfAnger443d ago

They all look disappointed by this news especially Alex

JEECE443d ago

Pretty sad that the studio that gave us a monumental game like Crysis is now subsisting on microtransactions from a live service PVPVE game.

Crysis 4 put "on hold" as developer Crytek is next studio hit by layoffs

Crysis developer Crytek is the next studio hit by layoffs, as it announces it's set to lose an estimated 15 percent of its 400 employees.

RaidenBlack451d ago

Why'd the day start with such sad gaming news?
Absolutely disheartening.

Jingsing451d ago

Maybe putting The Power Rangers in Hunt Showdown will get you some money back. (sarcasm)

Kassanova07451d ago

I'm always rooting for Crytek.

P_Bomb451d ago

I’m rooting for Crysis. Hope they work it out.
