Just curious. I'm sure a 360 could run the hell out of it. I'd much rather play it on my Xbox then my aging PC, too. Any rumors floating around out there?
Trust me, I LOVE the 360, but it couldn't touch Crysis. It would blow up if it even thought about it. That's why I also have a top-end gaming rig. The 360 is an amazing machine but Crysis is in a whole different league tech-wise. Witht that, it doesn't mean the game is good either.
Crysis has already been confirmed to be PC exclusive. chandlerr_360
Just like Halo was, too, yeah? lol If Microsoft has their hands in Crysis in any way I have a feeling we will see it on 360 someday. Regardless, I guess I better get my PC up to spec. I have a 7800GT, a 4400+, and 2GB of RAM. Trying to figure out if MY PC will blow-up if it thinks about Crysis, too.

no but there will be other games using the cry2 engine
if crysis were to be ported to the 360, it'd be like when valve ported half life 2 to the original xbox, it'd be stripped down of most of its flashy graphics

Exactly the 360 could not even run it on mid settings.
As KGB said, if it did come to the 360 it would NOT have anywhere near the graphical and physics attributes that it has on a PC. Since PC's don't have to worry about being compact like a console, they can upgrade as much as they want, cuz they don't have to worry about space. PCs virtually have an unlimited amount of space to upgrade their systems, 360 or PS3 can't

Not entirely true. Crysis runs in both DirectX 10 mode and DirectX 9 mode. The 360 could handle the DirectX 9 port, not the DirectX 10. If it were ever ported to the 360, it would just look like the low-end PC version.
It could handle it med to high in DX9 mode, jeez guys yeah it looks nice but saying it will blow up if it thought about it is just dumb. Look at the 360 specs, really good. And yes I have a gaming rig, I am not a moron.

lol!! i love it when people talk with confidence about these things. like a guy in a movie saying how clever he is while there is a monster right behind him thinking how its gonna eat him and chew him and stuff... coff coff coffAlan wake! coff gow.. coff coff UT 3... Anyway besides the fact that it wouldnt look the same on a 360 as it would on a 5000 dollar pc with a few tweaks and downgrades it would run just fine. but ill take all of the aforementioned games over a game which essentially banks everythin on how pretty and bendy the leaves look....g-y
Like two people above me said, the 360 could handle it if it's played in DX9. Being played in DX10 is the only reason it wouldn't be able to be ported onto the 360. But I doubtit willbe ported anyway...(It can be played in both DX 10 or DX9)
Oh, it'll make the leap. Only it won't be the PC version, it'll be more like Battlefield 2 MC compared to BF2 PC. Sure, it'll have the same feel and name, but will lack the graphics and some of the quality of the PC version.
Crytech would probably make a engine that would work with the 360, they are probably busy mastering there engine along with finishing Crysis. There will probably be a crytech game coming out on the 360 or other consoles just stripped down a bit and running in DX9. Time will tell, but there is already a ton of great games coming out this year so probably won't be till next year or 2009.
Nope, it cant be played on 360s graphic card first of all or it wouldnt look as good due to the fact u need like an 800-900$ graphic card to run it iboo01
Thats funny considering most of the footage been shown has been in DX9 mode, and footage near that start where it still looked amazing was running on 7950GT's which arent $900........Xbox 360 has a well made ATI graphics card equivalent of a Med-High PC GPU, Crysis is possible in DX9 mode, it just wont happen. Wish people would start talking sense in this thread.
Crysis could run at a close to equivalent of highs in DX9 mode, plus maybe some DX10 like features using MEMEXPORT capabilities, however because of RAM issues, I don't know how nice the textures could really be, even with texture compression directly on the RAM itself. To make it run smoothly on the 360 with good graphics, texture compression, texture streaming, and HDD caching would be completely necessary. The Xenos GPU is definetly better than the GeForce 8600 in terms of raw technical specs, and the 8600 cards tend to be the recommended level of cards for many of the new PC DX10 games these days like Bioshock. So yes, I do believe the 360 could run a quite nice version of Crysis, RAM problems aside.

it says pc exclusive.....but i have a gameinformer magazine were it shows a preview of it and it said pc/ps3/xbox360....so i mean maybe down the road. console gamers can dream i know i am.
GameSpot users are blissful and blind. Please, don't give me this "360 can't handle it" BS... Don't listen to everything the developers tell you, if you do you are just easily convinced. Believe me, hardware wise the 360 is more than enough to handle a game like Crysis at least on Full DX9 specs, they could easily achieve it with optimizing. The reason that Crysis isn't on consoles or hasn't been confirmed yet doesn't have anything to do with the game being "too much" for a 360 or PS3, it's more about marketing, planning and strategy. I mean think about it... If the Cryengine 2 engine can scale back to 3 year old hardware, and the Xbox 360 hardware being relatively new and pertty powerful, you would expect amazing developers like Crytech to be able to port it to the 360 successfully with more than enough of the graphical elements intact. You will see it on consoles eventually, and vice versa with those 360 exclusives.
I doubt it. Xbox 360 does not have the power to run such demending game. sometimes when i'm playing xbox 360 i found frame rate dropped dramatically during heavy gun fight.

Are you serious? What I've seen so far doesn't make it look that amazing as you make it out to be.
I've played Crysis on the GC in Leipzig on the highest-end rigs you can not even buy yet at the intel-booth. It doesn't look as amazing as the hype suggests. It's a slightly prettier version of FarCry and we all know that FarCry for 360 looked better (especially the water) than the PC version. The water in Crysis looks pathetic compared to the Xbox1 FarCry version. The rest is pretty standard fare the 360 can easily handle.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. According to this article (below) Crysis could very well be run on a 360. ATI even makes it sound like even most of the DX10 features could easily be replicated on a 360. Microsoft isn't stupid. There in this to make money - lots of it. I don't care if it's been labeled, "PC Exclusive" or not. That doesn't mean jack squat in the world of marketing. Crysis and, "PC Exlcusive" is just a marketing-means to push the ailing Vista out the door. I'll bet you dollars to donuts we will see Crysis on the 360. Maybe not this year, but soon after.
I seriously doubt MS is going to want to throw away what would easly be hundreds of thousands in sales on the 360.
For all those people who think the 360's processor/video card is not possible to run Crysis ----- lol
Now, Crytek have stated the only problem is the 360's ram, the 360 only has 512MB of ram (lol) and they are having problems with the streaming technology used in the Cry Engine 2 for Crysis to beable to run properly on the 360 : )
The 360 might struggle with Crysis not because its CPU and GPU are weak (they are actually quite powerful) but due to the constraints of 512mb of memory. Still I wouldn't be surprised to see a somewhat stripped down port in the future. There's no reason the 360 couldn't handle the DX9 version with a bit of tweaking.

IT WILL BE PC EXCLUSIVE BUT PPL GET TO GYPED TO PLAY IT.......ALL THE PREVIEWS ALL MAXED OUT GRAPHICS......JUST SO U KNOW MOST PPL WONT BE ABLE TO MAX IT OUT....SO ALL IM SAYIN IS THAT IT WOULD BE BETTER TO NOT MAKE IT AN EXCLOUSIVE..I RATHER PLAY IT ON 360
