MULTI Crysis 2 Hype Thread - PS3: It only does mandatory installs/MP demo out on PSN

[Muaaz]

It may not be so much about profit as it is about having access to a much larger audience. I don't know many people who played and finished Crysis 1 simply because of the power it requried when it launched and also because of the PC only factor, the audience was severely limited. Crytech wanted the mass market this time so they went with both the Consoles and PC just like COD and Halo, they want to establish Crysis as a successful franchise and reap the benefits of it.

Establishing a successful franchise by developing poor ports like these won't help. My point being, the console ports should have been really taken care of since it was their debut. This here, is just amateur work.

Whats even more funny is Crytek's recent challenge for anyone to point out any sort of difference in the 2 console versions :lol:

I mean seriously...? LOL!

lolz, But the real/actual game hasn't been leaked on the PS3 yet.WHat the PS3 owners have been playing until now was the MP Beta so maybe just Maybe the final product looks better than the Beta.

& ofcourse the fact that MP of crysis 2 is developed by some other dev. not by Crytek!

DF shall take on Crytek's latest claim , lets see!

Bayonetta was also an original IP and the PS3 port really sucked(Which they fixed later by patching though), but then Platinum Games latest release Vanquish was favored equally on both platforms. It was Crytek's first effort on PS3 and knowing the architecture of PS3 which is quite difficutly to work with as opposed to XBOX 360, they tried their best to make an equal port.

Most developer struggles at first with the PS3 and then learn with experience. I also recall Orange Box port by EA which was also bashed critically for it's poor performance on the PS3.

Before bashing the PS3 version, let's just wait for the final retail code release and it's analysis by DF, all opinions are based on the beta MP code for now.
