Interesting, I'd like to see them revisit the idea instead of more Crysis. :|

Crytek Was Once Working On Its Own Take On Deus Ex

xlarge.jpg

Waaaay back in time, long before even the first Far Cry was released, Crytek as working on a game called Engalus. Envisaged as a first-person game with an emphasis on story and role-playing, it actually made a small public appearance in 2000 as a tech demo for Nvidia before disappearing from sight, never to be seen again.


Well, until this week, when Superannuation was perusing the page of Brian J Audette, former lead designer on the project, where you will find not just a story synopsis for the game, but also a mod for Deus Ex that implements some of Engalus design, assets, voice acting and dialogue.

Most of Kotaku's stuff is just fluff and the site is a pain to navigate now but every once in a while they actually manage to get enough brain cells to write a decent article.

Sounds good, Crytek also canned another game that looked like  Alan Wake

I wish they would make new Ip's instead of making Crysis sequels & generic shooters

Crytek is garbage. They can't make a game for anything. They need to exclusively work on the PS3/4 if they hope to save their company from utter failure. Why not put 100% into one project on one platform rather than 50% on a project on three platforms (two of them garbage EX. PC & Xbox 360).

Wow, if anything Crytek would make a PC exclusive if that happened.
