Why do people think Crysis is possible on th ePS3

it can be done on a console easy its just it would be in direct 9 not direct 10  and you really don't need a really expensive rig to play the game on max im building a pc for about $800 and it will run it on max in direct 10 mode

they call it CRYsis because thats what you're gonna be doing when you shell out all that money to play one game.jack_russel

That was pretty lame. :P 

As of now I dont think Cyrsis can be done on either system. But give it time I feel in about 3 or so years Crysis caliber graphics could be on the 360 or the PS3. It just takes a few years to get used to what can be done for eachh system. I feel once the cell is finally figuered out we will see something pretty close to crysis and same goes for the 360. bot are powerful, but PC will probably have the beat anything graphics wise on any console you just have to fork out the money

And tha fact that the 360 and PS3 have 512mb RAM doesn't change any of your outrageous claim?

because it can be.

anystem can play any game.

Which is at least doubled, now with vista, quadrupled when compared to a pc's amount. on the pc, Most of the ram is used on OS, system resources and such. Why do you think going from xp to vista alone doubles the ram you need to play games. Being a PC gamer, you should know that

That's true only if you have like, 1GB of ram or less. Most PC gamers have 2 or more in their machine, I'd imagine.

Windows XP with System only task running uses no more than 180MB-200MB  Vist about 270-300.  Average gaming PC has 1.5Gig - 2Gig  1.5Gig - 300MB is Still 1.2Gig. Still like 700MB more than a console.  Add the fact that PC has dedicated Video memory (256MB +) While a console has to share it's 512MB.  Also both the PS3 and X360 have an OS.  X360 OS uses 32MB of its Ram PS3 OS suposedly uses even more.

Cell cant render the graphics and the RSX is weak and the ram is too low.

Incorrect. The GPU is only one problem, it's also the fact that consoles cannot handle the large scale dynamic gameplay due to austere RAM and HDD facilities in comparison to PC. 

Who's to say its impossible?E_x_i_l_e

Crytek 

Im getting very frustrated with this. If you say that Crysis can be done on PS3, then youd have to say that it could also be done on the 360, because one is just as powerful as the other. Crysis can be done on neither a PS3 nor a 360, only a $1,000 over computer.

Why do you care who thinks what? It doesn't matter whether or not Crysis is possible on consoles, if Crytek doesn't want to make it on consoles, it won't happen. 

According to what I've experienced and know about the 360's hardware, the 360 could actually run a decent version of Crysis if it wasn't for the lack of RAM hampering such an idea.  mobius1aic

Developers were able to somehow fit Doom 3 on the original Xbox's 64 MB of RAM. It might be possible at lower level graphics.

T_T PC gamers say you can max Crysis out,DX9 mode,with a 7600GTX,Pentium 4,and 512mb of RAM...but consoles cant?Since Crysis is soooo scaleable,and can easily run on 5 year old PC's and still look good,PS3 nor 360 should have no problem at all running Crysis maxed at DX9,I dont believe Crytek are very lazy devs,the only reason this game wouldnt run on consoles is if they wouldnt take the time to make it run.This is ofcourse if what PC gamers say about Crysis system requirements are true.One minute theyll say Crysis runs beautifully on a 5 year old PC due to high scaleability,then when someone brings up it could be done on a console...they say "consoles could never handle Crysis!".:roll:Rather annoying.killab2oo5

Crytek said 2-3 year old PCs actually. And yes, those have way more RAM than consoles (since 360 is nearly a 2 year old PC). 

Max out DX9 mode on 512 MB RAM and a 7600?!?!?!?! HAHAHAHAHAhaahahah, do you know how stupid that sounds?  It takes close to a 7600 to fully max out Far Cry with all the anti aliasing options on, and that game is 3 years old!  I would say that to max out Crysis in DX9 mode, it'll take a 7900, and then some to run max in DX9.  To max out DX9 mode, it would probably take an 8 series GeForce, and if that was the case, you might as well be running in Vista to run the game in DX10 mode.

Consoles do not need as much RAM because they are set platforms. Take Doom 3 for instance. Min Requirements for PC are 512 MB of main RAM and 64 of video RAM. The game ran on the Xbox's 64 MB total RAM, that's 512 MB less or 1/9th that amount of RAM of the PC version minimum requirements.

PS3 is a super computer and might even be too powerful to run Crysis.Idonomeus

:roll:  Yes and weve seen what that aupercomputer can do with great titles like FEAR and Splinter Cell.

Crysis Minimum Requirements

CPU: Athlon 64 3000+/Intel 2.8ghz
Graphics: Nvidia 6600/X800GTO (SM 2.0)
RAM: 768Mb/1Gb on Windows Vista
HDD: 6GB
Internet: 256k+
Optical Drive: DVD
Software: DX9.0c with Windows XP

768MB of System RAM. The PS3 has 256 MB. The scale of the game would not be compatible with either console platform. There would be loading times mid level... or if you are in the open there would be distance fog or poor textures at distance like the first version of Oblivion.

It would be comparable to playing the game on the lowest PC settings though. With the console's hardware the game would look far from the way it looks in those screenshots.

My XP with 60 Proscesses running only takes 466 RAM ..., Vista doesnt even double it, about 750. that leaves .. on a standard "Crysis PRepared rig" with 1.2k RAM , not to mention Vista allocated up to 3 GB RAM into all programs, and READY boost with a memory stick.

Crysis would be dumbed down in scale, taking away a good portion of its value on a console, not only that, limited to like 8-12 players online? When its 32 on the PC? I mean cmon reality is, it would be a half-assed game port if anything.

Prosesor speeds mean absolutly nothing nowadays....a PD 3.0 can still max out any game easily...Including Oblivion, and need I remind you on what platform Oblivion looks better on?

Sure, Crysis can be done on consoles.  Can we all say "downgrade" loud and in unison?
