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.

Paradicia5365d ago (Edited 5365d ago )

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.

TheMyst5364d 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.

pijinio2125364d 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...

gravemaker5365d 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

Paradicia5365d 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.

Playing it right now looks amazing! :D
so much fun, i hope they make a vr mod for crysis 2 / 3 too!

DivineHand125477d ago

This is amazing. This is the direction VR should go in to boost adoption. Since I have beaten every Crysis except 1, this is now a good excuse to correct that problem.

Crytek Wanted Crysis To Be "Future-Proof"

According to Crytek CEO Cervat Yerli, "I want[ed] to make sure Crysis does not age, that [it] is future proofed, meaning that if I played it three years from now, it should look better than today." Yerli and the team designed Crysis' highest graphical settings for the PC hardware of 2010 and beyond.

While Crytek has officially announced Crysis 4 is in development, nothing new has surfaced. For now, gamers' only way to scratch that itch is to play the Crysis Remastered Trilogy available on PC and consoles.

OG 2007 Crysis (not the remastered weirdo), is & will forever be a legend amongst the PC community.

PrinceOfAnger482d ago

This video will always be impressive to me, even for years to come. Some things here are better than games we have today, OG crysis is the best version!

RaidenBlack482d ago

OG Crysis physics, man ... amazing! Thanks for the reminder!

PrinceOfAnger481d ago (Edited 481d ago )

Looks really nice with VR mod too

FinalFantasyFanatic482d ago

I'm still shocked that it looks as good as it does today, puts some modern games to shame.

Profchaos481d ago

I thought the remaster was fine tbh some rough edges at launch but after some patches it's decent

I mean the lighting and physics still hold up extremely well. I still revisit it from time to time.

RedDeadLB482d ago

That CPU performance thing is preventing it.

isarai481d ago

Yeah unfortunately Crystek's decision to bet on the linear progression of clock speed in CPUs was derailed by the unforseen shift towards multicore CPUs. It just wasn't built with that in mind because that wasn't even in the conversation at the moment

DivineHand125482d ago

I remember when I tried to play Crysis with my Intel Pentium Dual core E2200 @2.2GHz , 4GB ram and GeForce 9400gt. I was a kid back then and that was the best I could do. I would get about 15 to 20 fps. When I over clocked the CPU to 2.8GHz I would get about 40fps. The experience wasn't good at all and it was the only PC game I could not run back then unless and put the settings on low. At that point the game went from cutting edge graphics to PS2 graphics. To this day I haven't completed the OG Crysis. I was able to complete Crysis 2 and 3 after building a new PC when I got my first job.

HyperMoused481d ago

Never played it, worth a try you think?

Profchaos481d ago (Edited 481d ago )

Worth a try just because it's the only game that lets you pick up a turtle on the beach and throw it at enemy soldiers that should have been a back of the box feature.

But nah seriously unless you're nostalgic for it I'm not sure if it will hold up

Crytek went so overboard on the Crysis tech and sent devs to photograph leaves in Haiti

"The shader work that came out of this was mind-blowing at times."

RaidenBlack495d ago

Amazing, often misunderstood
The dumb AI was deliberate, so that the players can explore and experiment with the world and all the features.

vTuro24494d ago

It really is. Most people only remember it for its graphics but the gameplay was equally amazing.

RaidenBlack495d ago

Hope they try to pour nearly same amount of dedication to the new Crysis 4

DefenderOfDoom2495d ago

Well worth the extra work ! I enjoyed all 3 Crisis games and would also love a new one .

JunonZanon495d ago (Edited 495d ago )

Still wish game development was overall this passionate and minutious about their projects. Obviously, there are still some great studios as exceptions.

LikAChicken494d ago

I’ll never forget Far Cry 2 and the amount of details they packed in.

Yea there were some issues with the gameplay loop and the sickness aspect but you could tell they really tried to nail details.

DivineHand125494d ago

I haven't beaten the first Crysis but I did play Crysis 2 and Crysis 3. I know some PC players were annoyed by the last 2 games being developed with consoles in mind but I believe it was an improvement. I had a great time with Crysis 3 to the point where I believe it was too short.
