No Crysis for EA or Consoles 97

Posted by Zonk from the see-how-rumours-start dept.
There was a lot of buzz this weekend about the possibility that EA would be buying Crytek, the company currently working on the uber-shiny Crysis PC game. IGN checked in with the mammoth publisher and, at least according to EA, there are no plans for Crytek to join the EA family. Crytek did have some news to share at the Leipzig Games Convention, though: Crysis won't be on the next-gen consoles. It's just too intensive for even the likes of the 360 or PS3, apparently.

    If they think all gamers have overpriced Alienware monsters, they're in for a big shock. I'm on Mac and I only plan on buying a Wii, that means no "Crysis" for me either.

    Blizzard were able to make WoW run fine on my Mac mini G4/1.42GHz, 1GB RAM with Radeon 9200/32MB (except when there was too many players on-screen), programmers should learn to make scalable games which would allow them to release the game on the Xbox360, PS3 and Wii.

      Enough with people calling programmers crappy. For example, Oblivion, every says it has huge hardware demands and crashes. It is possible that they are all hack programmers, but I tend to think management is really to blame. I am a programmer, and as much as the arrogant programmers will argue, you will always have bugs in your code if it reaches a certain point of complexity. Video games are very complex and there will always be bugs. Management is in control of the QA process and they decide when to release a game with bugs. If management and technical directors decide that X is the hardware requirements of the game, then what is the programmer going to do? I am not going to be spending my hours making my code run 4% faster on hardware below the specs set by management. I'm sure most game programmers could spend a few weeks squeezing every drop of performance out but guess what, they would get fired for wasting time. "But look, it runs on a 486!!!".

          Folks need to stop pretending that PC gaming (at least of new games) is cost effective compared to consoles
           
          Wow, you just started spouting absolute nonsense.
           
          Nobody has ever pretended that - everybody knows that PCs are the expensive option, and that consoles are the cheaper option. Why would anybody buy a console if this weren't the case?

          • Why would anyone buy consoles if they weren't cheaper than PCs? Well, depending on how much cheaper, convenience could certainly be a factor. Assuming the console works well, it's an entirely "plug'n'play" experience. The games enter into it as well - assuming, of course, that there continued to be games released on consoles that never see a PC release (and, yes, I'm aware that the reverse is true as well).

            People do try to compare PC gaming to console gaming in terms of price, attempting to make the P

      I was worried there for a minute. As for the "no consoles" thing, they think the 360 is too weak? Are they kidding? There are a lot of people who can't even afford a 360, nevermind the PS3.. and they expect to market their game to the "teenagers with enough free time but also somehow have hojillions of dollars" niche?

      Oh, waa! Listen here, sonny. People like me used to need systems that cost thousands of 1980's dollars just to be able to play games that sucked compared to what you get on a GBA today... and w

      I think you under-estimate the modern game market.

      There's a significant portion of well-paid, mid-20s to mid-30s gamers out there who *can* afford to buy kick-ass hardware and are also inclined to do so.

      And it's not going

  • Damn, that had me laughing. They can't be serious, can they?

    The footage [gametrailers.com] looks freaking sweet (sometimes almost to the point of near-photorealistic quality), and after having played FarCry I can't wait to see how this game will turn out.

    But how on earth wouldn't the Xbox360 or PS3 be able to run this game? I would think that, since the PS3 isn't even released and the 360 is pretty much still beginning, that the developers would be able to crank out alot more stuff than which was allready shown off in eit

      according to the link you posted, its release date is 1/1/2007. i believe that puts it out about a month before vista is supposedly released. i know i sure cant wait to buy it so i can look at the pretty box for a month or so before i can actually get an operating system it runs on.
  • I hope the gameplay will be better than it was in Far Cry. They certainly can make a good engine though, so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until I can afford a PC capable of playing this at a decent framerate. My crusty old Dell can't even play HL2, Crysis will stomp it into the ground... :)
  • Well, the next-gen consoles had a good run... But it looks like PCs are back in the lead...

    Wait... How many of the next-gen consoles have been released sofar?
    • >Well, the next-gen consoles had a good run... But it looks like PCs are back in the lead...

      you mean WILL be.

      when it's released.

      in 4-5 months.
  • NextGen are not anymore in the lead. What is going to happen in three years? The game publishers will start to all make Wii style games on consoles to avoid to pitch false high power graphics games. I can't wait for Cryoshere to be released. But nobody will really react to this news, because the whole industry and consoles fans needs and wants to believe in the NextGen success.
