Microsoft Fanboy Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 EA has shot down recent claims that a version of Crysis is headed to Xbox 360. The publisher described 1UP's discussion of the game (via podcast) as a "miscommunication." The gaming site claimed to have spoken with Crytek developers who confirmed an Xbox 360 title was in the works. Miscommunication? Color us suspicious. EA might not be ready to make an announcement, but the hype surrounding this to-be franchise demands that Crysis games appear on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Wait for it. http://www.joystiq.com/2007/01/17/ea-denie...me-on-xbox-360/ :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToneKnee Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 EA can't miss an opportunity like this, after all, they are only in for the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strotee Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 EA can't miss an opportunity like this, after all, they are only in for the money. As opposed to 99% of all the other companies on this planet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razorwing Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 this is why Gears of War is on the Xbox 360 and Crysis is on PC. Makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magik Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 EA just isn't ready to announce it. It will happen eventually. No doubt about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't follow.. :unsure: I want Crysis on 360 because achievements and I won't have to sell my other lung to upgrade my PC :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoadorable Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 really doubtful that it'll be so heavy that you'll need a monster machine to run the thing. i'm sure we're looking at something similar to Far Cry was three years ago. for me, always planned on this being a PC title so no biggie.

Meshuggah Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 shouldn't this be in Microsoft section not general console section? Watch this post get deleted as well from the neowin police (that seem to be out to get me lately). It may still come out for both consoles, in fact I want it to. I can't afford spending 3000 dollars on a complete PC upgrade that might still not handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I was assuming to get the full detail and experience I'd need to buy a DirectX10 card. I haven't been following that too much, when are they coming out? <snip> congratz on the post staying up :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smigit Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 I guess I was assuming to get the full detail and experience I'd need to buy a DirectX10 card. I haven't been following that too much, when are they coming out?Yeah but alot of the earlier vids were done on DX9 which shows you dont need DX9 to have the game looking stunning. It count defnetly run on the 360, it just may not look as great as the PC version but 'IF' they had to scale the graphics back for the 360 I doubt they would have to scale it back too far.I think itll hit xbox later on. Theyll want to get it out for PC first and potentially EA would have another team do the Xbox conversion. If it doesnt no deal as my next PC will be build around this game anyway since Farcry was my fav game of recent times along with black and white 2 and counterstrike source.

FreqFace Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 I really don't think EA would miss such an opportunity as Crysis for the 360. Nearly all of their games are multi-platform in some way, so they get the most sales possible. You ever see Burnout on the DS? I rest my case.

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted January 18, 2007 Veteran Share Posted January 18, 2007 Forgot to add my /02 cents when I move the thread... I would say it is almost guaranteed it will eventually see the 360, just as Far Cry did. It just might be a very long time before we see it, that is all.

Nose Nuggets Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 (edited) did farcry ever make it to console? or just the sequals..... that didnt ever make it to pc oddly enough. its hard to make money on PC exclusive titles with the curent (and future) market. so i would not be suprised if some adaptaion makes it to console, but not having a DX10 console to push it onto might not make a port worth the effort. i have to hand it to the Crytek guys for sticking to there guns and developing the 2 farcry games FOR the pc, and taking advantage of the absolutely latest and greatest tech (dx10 in this case). there are hardly any games to date that have the drawing distance present in FarCry. and even fewer games in general developed for the pc and ported to console, as apposed to the later which is almost too prominent today.

neoadorable Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Crysis will be plenty pretty on a core 2 duo with 2GB ram and soemthing like a 7900GT. that means it'll be plenty pretty on a 360 if they bring it out on her. sure there will be refinements for higher-end gear, but as a more or less first wave DX10 title don't expect too much.

OhMuffin Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Well considering the 360's ATI GPU is a souped up version of DX9 with a few DX10 libraries, it should run it quite well. Along with the ability the 360 has with adding new libraries off the DVD9 disk, I'm sure they could make it work and look very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razorwing Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 That doesn't make any sense considering the games come from different companies...? well I'm just guessing it'd be more fair. lol. Xbox 360 people get GOW and PC gets Crysis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoadorable Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 yes, the 360 will suffice for everything we've seen online from Crysis thus far. what surprises Crytek have up their sleeves we can't tell, but seeing as their previous game had static sky syndrome i wouldn't bet the world on breaking news here...heh heh.

Sn4k36 Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 If this game comes out for the xbox360 at the same time as the PC version, then i wouldn't even spend $0.50 on the game, since it'll be nothing but full of bugs.. Just like over 90% of the other EA games that came out in the past few years.. But if the game comes out just for the PC only.. Then for sure i'll go and pick the game up.
