crysis devs talk about console port

"...you cannot get Crysis as it is on PC on any console. What you would have to do is compromise the design and the level design [...] the consoles just offer a memory difference which is the most important statement here - the memory difference in the PS3 and Xbox 360 doesn't allow Crysis - the same on console as it is on PC. In order to make Crysis's gameplay [on console] you would have to make a derivative Crysis and optimize it for the Xbox 360 and PS3. In fact, if we do it, we'll optimize it for each platform."

playstation UK make another lie though:D

Even before the PC version released, rumours of a PS3 conversion of the stunning Crysis (developed by Far Cry creators Crytek) were rife, and not far off the mark if insiders at the studio are to be believed. The game looks to be a port of the PC original plus some extra modes and features, a kind of Crysis 1.5. Like the PC game you can expect a visual powerhouse; an open-world shooter that begins on a beautiful tropical island before things take a turn for the worse and aliens from a parallel world stake a claim on Earth. Only the mighty Killzone 2 could possibly hold a candle to this shooter. For technical reasons we hear an Xbox 360 version of Crysis isn't in development. Bet you're glad you bought a PS3 now, eh?

The date magically changes the specs of the consoles???

as much as i hate console fanboys, ill be happy when and if this game gets released on consoles, just to see how badly they had to cut the game to get it to run on consoles, and of course, to see said fanbois' reactions.

Watered down, dumbed down, ugly Crysis: Instincts, coming to a console near you, enjoy.

Why post a 3 month old article.

Looking at it from another angle: Why post rumors that were shot down 3 months in advance?

Sure its old but it still holds water in that consoles would never be able to run crysis like PC could but the port part is still a possibility.

I think a console port is inevitable, this is an EA published game we're talking about. That said, I'm willing to bet the console version is going to be another Far Cry Instincts or Battlefield 2: Modern Combat type of situation.TyrantDragon55

Those versions were weak compared the PC versions.

Thank you for re-stating my point for me.
