A lot of the pics I have seen have been PC version running maxed out presumably. The console specific screenshots are a big disappointment and show only a very marginal improvement over the original game. Lots of really low res, flat textures with poor detailing. Frankly, the console version looks terrible.

lol why would anyone want farcry for the consoles. it was made for the PC (original farcry), and im hoping that the devs didnt just make a console version 1st, and then throw it on the PC.

we all remember farcry instincts predator right? it felt like i was using a wireless controller with the battery dying every 2 seconds.

The game was in development for PC but was later decided that it would also be ported to them Consoles

I suppose the PC version will be getting mods as well.

That would explain its lackluster elements I noticed here and there and overall I was not that impressed graphically with the game. But given its rather sandbox nature, I can understand that. Fallout 3 doesn't look that great either.

Of course, why do you think the games won't have the same level of graphics as Crysis? Because it was made for both PC AND Consoles. This severly limits the graphic options.

I'd rather have friends, a social life and self respect than to say I have slightly better graphics.

Average PC gamer looks like this, no wonder console sales are going through the roof:

chessboxer1

That's wrong dude

I know. But it's true sorry.

LOL! If only. Although truthfully, I did know a few PC nerds that looked just like that.

You run around threads saying that pc gamers are geeks and console owners are not. You sir are a big joke.

How is someone who games on a pc more of a geek then a console gamer? IMO everyone who games has a little geek in them, to be into videogames in the first place.

Are you really that angry that you cant afford to have a console or two aswell as a gaming pc?

Ya know, I've been trying to make the same decision! I've got a PC that could play this game maxed no probs, but I'd much rather play the MP side on the console! The only thing holding me up is the Map Editor - how limited is the console version in comparison with the PC version? That's my main holdup, but honestly... seeing the stuff they've made with the console version of the editor, I'm thinking it'll be pretty open regardless of the format.

It's really no contest here. This game was designed for the PC. It's superior in every aspect--which is a surprising feat for Ubisoft of all developers.

Not really surprising, Ubi's PC exclusives always were excellent. It's just their ports that suck and not just ports to PC, their ports from PCs to consoles suck too (have you looked at how bad Dark Messiah is on 360? Ughh)

Well you are trying to provoke a reaction on a gaming internet forum, so you must be such a cool guy.
