"Crytek: 'Crysis On Console Looks Better Than PC Version'

Nick Jones


Crytek's Cevat Yerli talks about making Crysis for Xbox 360 and PS3.

Published on Sep 29, 2011

Gamers have waited for years to play landmark PC shooter Crysis on console. Next week they will get their chance when it's released on Xbox 360 and PS3.

We've been speaking to Crytek's Cevat Yerli about converting the famously power-hungry FPS to consoles.

We asked Yerli if the finished product on consoles ran at the specs he would like. He told us, "Yeah, it runs at the same fidelity as Crysis 2, but the frame rate is a solid 25-30, it’s not a 60fps game. It feels very fluid on consoles, and we’ve also made an effort in remastering the content for consoles."

Yerli added, "What I mean by that is we’ve given it a whole new lighting path, quite a few new special effects, we’ve added the Nanosuit 2 controls, and all of this has added to, as well as improved the experience."

But how does it compare to the PC version of Crysis?

"I want to be clear: when I say the console versions look better than Crysis on PC, I mean that as a factual thing, not in terms of technical specifications."

Crysis will be released on PS3 and Xbox 360 on 4 October for £15.99 and 1600MSP respectively."

 

i'd have to see it to believe it

Sure they might have optimized their engine, since back in 07 is was so crap it was unrunable on the mightiest of PCs, and added some flashy lights, but it's still nonesense if you ask me

Also solid 25fps?

So...lesser frame rate, dumbed down controls, and 1024x720 is a better experience than 60+ fps, more choice in nanosuit abilities, and 1920x1200? I see, so what they're saying is they're selling their souls (more) for sales?

Gotcha

Gotcha

They removed Nanosuit abilities for the console versions?  I seriously doubt this?

Well it is the Cryengine 3. I remember reading that the lighting had been redone, therefore the game appears better. Obviously PC runs at a higher resolution textures and better framerate.

It looks pretty good but I prefer the more realistic look of the PC version. Also, 25-30 frames per second,

Crytek propaganda. I was disappointed with Crysis 2, none of their PR crap is going to sway me off this tree.

*Opinion of course*



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

Um, where did I say that?  I said they removed  choices.  Basically they took the 4 nanosuit abilities from Crysis 1, and lumped 2 together, so there's really only 2 choices in Crysis 2.  Which is how it sounds they've made it in the re-release on console.  Pretty weak honestly.

Hardware-wise impossible.
