CryEngine 3 PC footage

Im really looking forward to this game because as we can se in he videos the graphical improvments are fairly minimal compared the Far Cry >> Crysis 1 jump, so i really really hope they focus much more on optimization, i did think the first Crysis was really good, loved the gameplay and story and the graphics were really just a bonus, but it does need to better optimized.
 
I hope they do well selling the engine as it usually helps push development and optimisation when numerous developers are trying different things with an grahics engine.
It should also mean we get some good games with the engine instead of a game that at times just seemed like a demostration of the graphics engine rather than a well put together game.

This should also give some competitiveness to the graphics engine market and it will be interesting to see what direction the Unreal Engine 3 goes to stay competitive. Personnally I'd like to see it become a less shiny, the textures always seem to be very reflective.
Ofcourse what I'd like to see is a new single player Unreal game, as I personnally loved Unreal 2 and thought it was very underated and the multiplayer addon was good too.

You realise that's down to just the development choices behind the games, rather than the actual engine?
It just happens that the most well known games on UE3 are all sci fi bloomy shiny games :)

They didn't lose anything, sales of Crysis exceeded EAs expectations, Crytek however couldn't help but wonder what it would have done in a perfect world.

It just makes sense to sell the engine, I know I'm getting sick of the shiny UE3 look. Fair play to Crytek on what they have achieved here, I hope developers eat this stuff up.

Remind everyone what kind of sales they needed to get their $22M back as last time the Crytek CEO did the media rounds he complained about PC piracy and how Crysis only sold 1M copies so even basic math tells you thats not enough to recover $22M as most devs get less than 10-15% of sales some much less.

Ive not read anything that said they didn't make their money back and more. They whined about piracy (plenty), apparently going on the assumption that no one would dare pirate their game...

Why? The gameplay was perfect in Crysis - at least the first 2/3 of the games was.

Played the game on Delta difficulty, instead of the neutered Normal, forcing me to use the nanosuit wisely and not just run-and-gun. Was fantastic. One of the best shooters ever.

I thought the whole game was amazing. I don't really know why crysis gets slated. Each to their own I guess. Lots of people love bioshock but I don't.
