Do you guys think, it's a good idea for Crysis to be ported to consoles.

Or do you think it'll be another Far Cry Instincts-esque port??

Discuss.

I don't think it's a good idea. I mean I don't think it can be done. And if it IS ported it will just be another inferior PC to Console port.

Crysis cant be ported to consoles without being downgraded, so i think it better off as a PC exclusive

No, would you rather have a dumb down port by EA or a new IP(multiplatform) from Crytek?

I don't think it should be ported, because it'll be very dumbed down with watered down graphics.

I honestly don't care if it gets ported or not but if it does then yeah...it will be limited in every aspect compared to the PC version.

Its been stated that yes it could be done, but would have to be cut back due to the PS3/360s "outdated" ram. LINK(About 5:50) its also stated that the CPU/GPU is not the issue.

Iam sure it could happen, but as Crytek are working on new IPs for 360/PS3 i doubt it will happen for sometime.

I think it would be great for Crysis to be ported to consoles, its never a bad thing for Crytek to have a larger market. Most of the 360's and PS3's hardware would be sufficient to run the game great on high, but unfortunately, it is the amount of system ram that is keeping a direct port from happening. Crytek said that because of this issue major design changes would have to be made in order for it to work.

Its not a graphical "dumbing down" issue, its a ram issue. Too much going on in the game for consoles to handle.
