Can Consoles do Crysis ???

Here is a video i took everything is maxed except 3 options are on high 1 being Shadows.

X2AA now look at how far the draw distance is and tell me wich game on Xbox360 or PS3 has an area and draw distance like Crysis ?? Also just look at the graphixs can this be done on consoles???

any thoughts???

Short answer: No

Long answer: Consoles lack the amount of ram needed to really drive this game. I can't see consoles running the same quality of graphics, same quality of physics, same AI, same draw distance and level design all at once. Consoles are cheap (relative to a high end gaming PC) for a reason, you get what you pay for.

Absolutely. Not on very high settings, but on medium for sure and possibly high (I've only played it on Medium myself). Far Cry 2 is coming to the 360 and PS3 and it seems like it will have much steeper system requirements, so there is no doubt in my mind that Crysis could be ported to consoles.PBSnipes

Well the difference is that the Far Cry 2 devs are making it for the 360 and PS3 as well, which means they were already designing the game around consoles as well. Crysis however was designed solely around the PC. Put it this way, the Geforce 8800 series struggles to run the game at respectable settings. So imagine a console? Which is essentially a entry level PC. I'm not saying "A Crysis" isn't possible. But the Crysis you see on PC is not. And Crysis is know for its graphics not gameplay. So if a console can't render the graphics then its no point in it coming to consoles.

can it run it? yes. will it have to be watered down? yes.CaseyWegner

[QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]can it run it? yes. will it have to be watered down? yes.karasill

except it's only one letter.

Crysis could run on consoles at 720p withall of the effects turned down. It'd be bad. That game scales horribly even on the PC.

[QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]can it run it? yes. will it have to be watered down? yes.karasill

Ahhh, and THERE lies the heart of the matter. I won't BE Crysis if you water it down will it? I suppose that also depends on the degree of water added and how thoroughly it is stirred in.

If a Crysis: Instincts is released, or a game to the effects of it, we'll all know deep down that it is NOT crysis. Crysis would not have achieved the reviews that it did if it had been a corridor shooter, and we all know it. Hunting Koreans in a Zoo is not as fun as hunting them in the Amazon.

I had to play it watered down on my PC because my 7950 choked on it. It was still Crysis though.

I guess I see what you are saying. Wrapping a crap shooter in a "Crysis Skin" is not Crysis.

A watered down port, sure..otherwise the consoles would melt.

Probably at a very low resolution and everyone knows that Very High kills the fps. You probably could hit 35fps if you are looking at the ocean or a wall. But saying 35fps average on Very High, I would call you a liar. With heavy fighting scenes you will probably go below 20fps. Every hermit knows that the 8800 series(single gpu) doesn't run the game well. Even tri sli barely dishes out 60fps at 1920 x 1080.

In it's current iteration: No.

With the environments cutback a bit: Yes.

It's an 8 hour game in terms of SPwith forgettable multiplayer.I don't really see it as a big deal if it doesn't make it to consoles.

Hehe check out this Vid i made of me fighting last level Sub boss everything set on Very high except shadows and shaders

DX10 also made my PC cry

http://media.putfile.com/Crysis-2-46

mate you need to prone and use binocs a bit more :D

also, i've never used that female voice, but it doesn't sound anywhere as intense as the male MAXIMUM one)

i actually put crysis on all low, and all medium, to see how much smoother it would be. on all low, it seemed that the character models were still EXTREMELY good, especially the faces (i noticed this in particular since i was always zoomed in trying to get headshots). however, the environments were obviously degraded tremendously. it was still playable, but of course "not crysis"

Yes consoles could do Crysis!!!

Crysis is probably going to come to consoles anyway due to lackluster PC sales.

The bottom line is that Crysis' reccommended system requirements would require the Death Star as your desktop and even then the game would lag. So the port to consoles wouldn't even be close to it running on its highest settings on a pimped out PC. The problem I'm seeing is that people keep on saying that it would be impossible and they did it would have to be watered down to the point where it wouldn't be Crysis anymore, they also ramble on about the RAM bottleneck both the PS3 and 360 have.........

I look at games like Shadow of the Colossus, God of War 2, Metal Gear Solid 3, Gran Turismo 4 and the amazing port of Resident Evil 4 all being done on a system with only 32 MB of memory!!!

Then I look at Ninja Gaiden: Black, Halo 2, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, the ports of Doom 3 and Half Life 2 on Xbox a system with only 64 MB of memory and I'm even more amazed.

Its up to the programmer so stop acting like the Crysis experience isn't possible on consoles because it easily is and it's not going to lose a lot in it's transition to consoles.

I have a 8800GTS, at max I'm probably getting 35FPS when nothing is going on but usually its at 25-30 during big battles.

It doesn't have trouble it's just that the game isn't optimized very well. 25-30FPS is still not good in my eyes it should be running higher with a 8800GTS and 2 GB of PC-6400 RAM

Fing hell.

No no no no no no no no no

NO

Current consoles cannot run Crysis.

Well far cry 2 is going on the 360/ps3

so Ill wait for a gameplay video to see if consoles can stack up to crysis level of graphical awsomeness.

If they had the ram, sure they could--At highest settings to boot.

I'm positive the PS3 could do it. Not so sure about the 360.

-wii60-

They have the same amount of RAM, genius. And the PS3 ireally is probably closer to being able to run Crysis than the 360, and I'm not exactly what you'd call a fan of the PS3 myself. I can simply read the writing on the wall. The process of porting multiplats to the PS3 isn't terribly optimal, but the PS3's exclusives do, in general, achieve a slightly higher standard of visual quality than the 360's exclusives.

You cant be serious.

The PS3 has 256mb System ram, and 256mb video ram, 360 512mb shared.

That is pathetic.

Even worse the 360s GPU is close to a X1950, and the PS3s is a highly modified 6800.

Neither Systems could run the game - and at highest settings :lol: - A truly rediculous statement.

The 8800 cards, and 3800 series only run the game opimaly, and they are generations ahead of whats in the current consoles - they make console hardware alone obsolete.

*note to self never use old wikipedia links as a source*

NEver the less the performance difference between the 7900 series and X1950 to 8800 is nothing short of phenominal

I think they would be able to athigh-some mediumat 640p. The game runs pretty smooth even at 24fps (I ran it at 30fps,demo maxed),majority of gamers on consoles wouldn't notice.killab2oo5

Crysis level sizes, phhysics, and interactibity - combined with increadably complex a.i - its a no go.

And, once again, a Sony hater displays their ignorance and irrational hatred for consoles.

Of course the RSX all on its own wouldn't be able to do the trick, but that's exactly why they put the Cell in the system.

And I said if the PS3 had more RAM. I already admitted that there isn't enough.

Problem.

You fufil the role of an ignorant person thats for sure.

The Cell is not a magical processor that will allow miracles, and even with more memory the PS3 would not be able to run it at the highest settings.

BOth consoles this gen are leagues behind current PC hardware, and the tech in Crysis.

Xplay showed a video of the AI and physics, and im sorry i agree with adam sessler, they were dismal.

graphics were pretty though.

and no chrysis couldnt run on any console this gen. maybe next gen

Seems like quite a few hermits in the know, say it could. If it's 600p with graphics like Halo3 or CoD4, then I would be happy enough.

haha people are so desperate they refer to xplay reviews these days? LOL. That was a horrible review and they basically went bug hunting and didn't really focus on the sandbox nature of the game play at all. Just compare that review to all the other reviews out there.

• 8x DVD-ROM drive

And Oblivion is KNOWHERE as System intensive as Crysis.

Crysis is system intensive to even the most high end systems.

It simply cannot run on any console. Their hardware doesent allow it - Crysis is a generation ahead
