They really were'nt joking when they said they could get the quality of crysis running on the consoles. It looks as though the engine has been been extremely well optimised seeing as it is running quite smoothly on the consoles (using one of the maps from crysis). Hopefully these optimisations will mean even better visuals and better framerates on the PC. It's a win win for console and PC gamers if it is as it appears to be :D

Even on that vid you notice how much more vibrant the image looks on the PC screen :)

Console versions still look impressive, PS3 looked a bit murky though.

I also thought the PS3 version looked a little jerkier than the 360. Notice how he demos actual ingame movement on the 360 version and just edits showing the PS3 version.
 
the ps3 is clearly giving or going to give them some problems with performance as id imagine its a very differant platform to work with, I have no doubt that the ps3 version is going to be the most effected
 
One thing to remember on those vids is that there's probably quite a bit of overhead going off in the way of debug code etc, so performance is going to suffer for that as well. Neat stuff though.
 
Well crytek have just earned their licensing payments for the next 3 years.

I've never seen any engine that can sync the development to the consoles in real time. I have little interest in console development but that is stunning.
 
Yeah well the PS3 seems to struggle, the 360 is rather nice actually but the PC especially the lighting is miles apart! :D

The 360 seems to have a such a great colour depth compared to the PS3 which seems really washed out too.

Super impressive, they are making all the right moves. I really hope this engine catches on in a big way this time, I can't stand UE3.
 
i'm shocked at the ps3's quality compared to the 360.

have to say though, that is a pretty amazing engine, with the instant editing across multi-platform and real time updates.

btw is there any information on the next crysis game?

Wednesday, apparently. I'm pumped.
 
Have to admit, the XBOX360 version looked better than the PS3. Not sure if that represents the final game. One thing is for sure, their main focus is getting this game on the consoles and not the PC. At no point in that demo is he going to say "but lets see what we can do with the PC version" It's all about the consoles.

Reason being the PC would have put them in a really bad light :p you could see glimpses from the PC that is was looking a lot better and of course smoother.

Crytek wouldnt have made enough from Crysis being PC only so it's only natural they are pimping it for the consoles.

The reason isn't that important. The point is, they are focusing on making a console game. I'm not knocking it, since having the PS3 I don't see the point gaming on my 'superior' PC. Sad but true and I never thought I would say it.

And don't forget, that 360 is a 3 year old £130 console. You have to put it in perspective.

How about kb and mouse so you can actually aim properly?
I still welcome the consoles doing better and improved tools to help this
