I think it\'s supposed to come to the 360, maybe PS3 too.  Course it will look its best on a billion dollah PC.

Thanks for the screenies, those are amazing. 0_o

Yes, that is happening. And at that resolution/quality, it will bring even the best current cards to their knees. For a consistent 50-60fps, one will likely need at least SLI\'ed 7900GTX.

In all fairness, I think the Xbox 360 could do it justice. Not perfectly, but at 30fps with a good amount of detail.

It\'s tough to take it out of context, though. Maybe there\'s nothing behind those models, there\'s no people, there\'s no movement, no frames per second, etc.

But technology is moving pretty far along. PS4 will probably be capable of that, though I wouldn\'t want to be the artist who had to create grass through the San Andreas countryside. ;]

Bah, they didn\'t put every individual leaf in the correct place.  :p
 
Actually it looks pretty good, even though the screenshots are kinda small.
 
The animation is just as important as models and textures.

Aye. Off the top of my head, I believe Crysis will be a DX10 game. i.e. no XP support

Don\'t quote me on that.

quoted j00!

"Crysis will support both DirectX 9 and DirectX 10, which means that you can run it on a Windows XP PC, as well as an upcoming Windows Vista PC. You\'ll get the absolute best graphics with a Vista machine, but DirectX 9 still will look good. The version of the game we saw was using a DirectX 9 machine "simulating" DirectX10 by brute force, and it looked amazing."

crysis waist of time and money for it\'s release, will only be worth playing on the pc 1.5 -2 years after game is released by then hardware will be affordable and able to run game at 60fps.(or we will see how well they take advantage of 360 hardware probably the best for most people if they wanna play this game in it\'s glory)

See this is the problem with PC games like farcry. By the time you could run farcry with SM 3.0 at 60fps in high res the game was by then almost 2 years old. eye candy is great but sucks at 25 fps, This is why I now favour closed platforms, PS3, xbox360. I love PC games, but I don\'t flock to them expecting the greatest eye candy at playable framerates. It\'s BS when you have to turn off alot of  the features just so the game is playable.

I would rather see the developers take full advantage of 360 then see this game on the pc where it\'s not gonna be playable without major downgrading of features.

Take a look at hl2, great graphics/game-play and most people right from it\'s release were able to get 60Fps.

What are your thoughts on this guys, are you gonna get the PC version or buy the console one.

console fps when available on PC = PC!!!

I got a free copy of Black for the Xbox, the game was shallow yes but the action was just awesome.  Too bad I was limited to the slow ass thumbstick.  It takes 3 seconds to turn fully around while you can do that in a flick of the wrist on the PC.

mm: I think the texture work in HL2, while not extraordinary, was pretty good.

If they added detail textures, there\'d be no complaints. Personally, I think a bit more normal-mapping might\'ve been prudent.
