Even if they say it's not going to be released on x360, x360 is best suitted for crysis, a port wouldn't be to difficult.
Anyway, 512 mb of ram and a not to good graphic card (on both consoles) seem that crysis on consoles is not going to look so great compared the PC version, but...if somehow they manage to make the game look the same or better...
...we should kill crytek!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/muhaha.gif)

Will EA really allow this?

This rumor needs to be put to rest, it's not happening.
Oh it will happen. PC sales tanked. It obviously won't be the graphical showcase that it is on upper end gaming PCs, but there's no reason a reasonable port can't be made.

Like the ""reasonable"" ports of FarCry that were made for console?? **shudders**

For a quick money making port, Xbox360 would be the obvious road to take

This seems like it would be a lot of work to port to either PS3 or Xbox360. I thought Crysis was a DX10 game. That would make it easier to port to the 360. I must be missing something.
It is. But a lot of people run it in DX9 anyway to get better performance. I honestly don't think a decent port would be too difficult. A lot of people that you see talking about Crysis are the hardcore PC gaming crowd that is trying to run the game in DX10, with all the setting at "Very High", at resolutions like 1920x1200 or 1680x1050, and with 16x AF and 4x or higher AA. Sure, when you try stuff like that it chokes even high end gaming PCs. But back down off the "very high" settings, run in DX9, and set it too 720p and I really don't think a console port is an unreal expectation at all. Again, no one should expect it too look the same as on a up-to-date gaming PC, but a good looking port could be made... and it think it will be made since the PC version tanked.

And I do mean for 360. Screw the PS3 as I do not and never will own one.

Crap I hope so, I very much wanna play that game. But I ain't upgrading my rig to a feakin beast (too much expensive for my blood) just to play a single game.
And I do mean for 360. Screw the PS3 as I do not and never will own one.
Never say never. When the PS3 drops to the $100-$150 range, I'm sure 9 out of 10 who said they'd never get one will go buy one.
Anywayz, I hope the rumor comes to fruition. I think it'd definately be a PS3 exclusive (ex. PC, of course). People seem to focused on the RAM (and other things that affect PC environments differently) for port possibilities. I'm sure with some good optimization, it could run on PS3 just fine (with little to nothing lost, depending on recoding).

Even the new triple sli 8800 ultras can't run the highest rez and settings (see tomshardware.com for details).
Crysis looked great, and the sandbox is hours of fun, but I really think they are crappy coders. It doesn't look *that* much better than COD4, yet the highest settings are still out of reach, even for the cashed up fanboys with the latest rigs. The update did nothing performancewise that I can see.
If it struggles on a 3GB RAM, quad core machine with twin graphics cards, I can't see a reasonable version coming to either of the 512MB consoles running gfx chipsets from a few years ago.
Unless the crysis people brought in some people who can actually code for performance. Remember Doom3 on the original xbox, that was an amazing job for a 733MHz celeron with 64MB of ram and a geforce 3 card (ove maybe geforce 3 and a half), I don't think anyone believed that was possible.

That's exactly my point. Depending on who's going to be doing the port (and I mean who by the actual skill of the human; not the company logo), they could clean up all the sloppy parts, or implement some optimization, etc. Especially considering the PS3's potential is still waiting on a lot of discovery, so I'm 110% sure Crysis is an entirely possible port, with extremely minor to no loss in quality.

Well excuse the hell outta me for forming MY OWN opinion about a product I do not care for (in regards to gaming) from a company I refuse to support.
If I were silly enough to buy an Elite for $450.00 what makes you think I wouln't pay $400.00 for a PS3 if I wanted it bad enough?

You're excused, just don't let it happen again [snicker] j/k
I wasn't trying to say it like that. I was saying that years from now when a PS3 will be sold for between $100 and $150, tons of people who never thought they'd buy one, will buy one. All I'm saying is that whenever it reaches that price threshold (again, years from now), that will overturn a lot of people's negatives (much how the PS2 still manages to sell at $129).
When you're in a situation where you refuse to support the company, however, then the only way I see you ever buying one (for price) would be if it were a used unit (no additional sales numbers to report), and you bought used games.
Either way.

From a technological standpoint, it is very possible. On PC you are running a bloated OS and other programs behind the scenes, which consume resources that can not be used by the game. Here's an example. Gears of War is designed for the 360. It uses most likely all of the 512MB of ram, but runs smooth and looks amazing. To get those same results on PC, they recommend 2GB of ram, plus at least 256MB of VRAM. Call of Duty 4 is also around the same.
I think alot people are going to be surprised to see what the two consoles are capable of in the next couple of years in terms of graphics. Just look at APB, GTA 4, GT 5, Resistance 2, Killzone 2, MGS 4, Battlefield: Bad Company, etc, etc, etc. The list grows everyday, with every other announcement of a new game.

Yer just i wouldn't put it in my console, my PC crysis makes my Liteon drive click like hell (google it) they really fuxed up and I have to buy a new DVD drive just to play it since I don't want it to destroy my £50 sata dvd drive.
