consoles will never touch a PC and never play crysis

i run crysis with over 2G of ram and 512 of vram
I run it with a 9800 GTX overclocked (that pwnes any consol)
if Crysis comes out for any console it will look good unless they add in the fully destructible environment then it will look terrible

Crysis is way to graphically hungry for a console

The Xbox 360 has 512MB of memory shared with VRAM and RAM the PS3 has 256mb of VRAM and 256mb of RAM, very simillar. But crysis all on the low setting uses over 700mb of RAM… and it’s a PC exclusive so, no it wint be comming to consoles.

It is in fact going to be on the PS3.

“Consoles don’t have the hardware to live up to what Crysis looks like on the PC” Your dumb for even saying that.

Consoles are basically a PC in a box. The PS3’s RSX GPU is very much like Nvidia’s 7800 except more powerful b/c it was designed specifically to work with that hardware.

Not to even mention the cell cpu. It will look great on the PS3. Idk if the 360 has enough power to keep up with PS3 visuals.

Still if it comes to the 360 it would be an excellent addition to Xbox Live.

Consoles don’t have the hardware to live up to what Crysis looks like on the PC. People that play crysis on “max settings” have computers around 3x as powerful as a 360 or PS3 (believe me or not, it’s a fact, research it yourself if you wish). So yes, Crysis on the PC is without doubt be better, just like most other games released on consoles and PCs, providing your computer has the specs.
Personally, I don’t really care if it comes out on consoles or not as I always buy my FPS games for the computer and as shown with Call of Duty 4, the computer version ends up miles better and for some reason console players ended up getting “owned”…

Your all really really stupid ps3 and xbox will never be up to the standard of the best pc’s out there as once a month a new bit of hardware comes out and blows everything out of the way whereas consoles come out once every 3-5 years at best so really the consoles will always be second best also on his quote he says a derivative of crysis and he will optimise it for consoles so basically hes saying that they will have to re-write the whole of crysis in order for it to be playable it wont look as good as pc but its a great game so even though pcs are the best itll still look great on the consoles.

I have been playing Crysis on a 32-bit version of windows for the past few months. Just got in the 64-bit version, had no problems with the graphics card driver or any of the other OS drivers. Ran the necessary vista updates, installed crysis, installed the hotfix for the virtual memory and I’m now actually able to play the game with almost 4 times better quality than I have yet. I don’t know what did it but I love it. My system has an nvidia geforce 8500, 4 gb ddr2 memory, amd x2 5000 processor with an experience index of 4.8. It’s amazing.

I hope it comes to the consoles, because in all seriousness, I’m not quite ready to upgrade my PC just yet.

I think in many respects it will look better than a normal PC version, as both have better hardware than many PCs these days. Since it takes a beast of a machine to play on PC, I’d imagine the console versions will hold their own graphically.

As far as which console version would look better, if the engine is coded and optimized properly, there would be little difference between them.

I wonder what system it would look better on, and how they would compare to the PC version.

If they already have the CryENGINE 2 running on 360 and PS3, which is what they’re showing at GDC, there’s really no reason to not bring Crysis to consoles. The engine is there and optimized, just drop the game on top of it
