it would probably be too much for the 360 too handle and give it RROD in 0.5seconds

Far Cry (the original) was made by the same people who created Crysis (which is Crytek). However Crytek sold of the rights for Far Cry to Ubisoft and now ubisoft is making Far Cry 2 using a different game egine then that used to make Crysis. Crytek is also using EA as their publisher now instead of Ubisoft.

If a $3,000 PC can barely run Crysis, what makes you think a 2 year old console will?

360 cant handle CrysisMrNib

I know it's common sense.

High-End computers with 4 video cards can not even push Crysis on the maximum setting, but somehow people think the 360 may be able to play Crysis on the lowest setting.

Crysis used the cryENGINE 2 where as far cray 2 is using an engine called dunia. I dont know much about this engine but if its being built for farcry 2 then it will be easyer to make a version for the 360 along side the development of the pc one. Porting the cryENGINE 2 to the 360 would be a nightmare.

there is just no way the 360 could handle crysis without RroD. imagine how loud that thing would be running, as if it isn't loud enough.

The graphics engine used in Crysis is not the reason why many can't run it. The game was just poorly programmed. If a quadcore proccesor and 3x SLI are required to get the most out of the game then something is wrong, but that's just EA. They release beta kits instead of games and the instruction booklet is used to report glitches. Get used to it

If 360 can't handle Crysis, then what a sad state we're all in. That means we've seen this "next-gen" console already reach it's technological peak after 2 years and it's already going obsolete. Obviously it can't do the dx10 stuff. But I'd like to think it could play the game with dx9 just fine. I've played it on the PC in both and it does look incredible. But I can't believe that it's something the 360 can't handle at all. Or can I?

They would have to tone down the graphics to make it work.

The xbox is as good as many good computers with technically higher specs due to newer technologs

But crysis is like......Jesus (graphically) my comp can run it on the higher settings but my computers a monster,

Crysis sucks anyway
