crysis war head massive improvment?

Quick question about crysis warhead, the devs said they wont make any more PC only games due to supposed piracy, so is warhead available on consoles? If so, does anyone know how well current consoles will be able to run it?
 
Finally, we get to the part of the review everyone wants to know about: performance. Crytek claims that Warhead is better optimized than Crysis, and everything I experienced confirms this. In fact, what's amazing is that Warhead not only runs better than Crysis, it looks better than Crysis. Keep in mind, a year has passed since Crysis shipped and there still isn't a non-Crytek game that approaches it in terms of visuals. Warhead features more definition to the terrain, and the lighting and particle effects have gotten big boosts. I found myself walking through jungle with the morning light piercing the canopy and had to stop and just absorb the moment. It had a level of atmosphere that I can't recall from the first game.

From IGN's review of the game, they gave it 9.4

But did'nt they say that they could run the original on a 8800gts (old flavour) with settings on high and good FPS?

Yes they did - and they also admitted they were wrong. Let it go already.
And still no confirmation on the release date, all the UK stores are saying the 26th. EA are saying the 12th for uk\europe and 16th for everywhere else. One of the crytek reps is meant to be finding out from EA what exactly is going on but no word back yet.

It's out on Steam on the 18th. Go preorder it. :)

you're clearly not a STALKER clear sky owner are you? thats the worse performing game i own by a mile, performs much worse than crysis and looks much worse, and people complain about cryteks coding, the performance of clear sky just goes to show IMO how good crytek did coding their engine :rolleyes:

You're obviously doing something wrong, it works great on my rig :) And looks a lot cooler than Crysis.

We are all reading this correctly, right? Running at 1280 x 1024, high settings with what felt like 30fps.

Crysis already runs on high at that resolution at what feels like 30fps on a 8800GT. It's Very High at more modern resolutions that makes everyone go bananas.

I was thinking that - and don't forget, what 'feels like 30fps' to some guy testing a game for the first time and trying to focus on the gameplay probably means ~30fps just running around in a normal level, with it plummetting down into the teens once a big firefight breaks out.

EA's decision (and a good one at that) to battle the piracy problems that riddled the first game

Yes, prices should really be much lower than they are now, espically with digital distribution. I really like the fact that colonization will be very cheap too :)
