Some news slipped out during the Leipzig convention in Germany that Crytek senior game designer Bernd Diemer said their upcoming first-person shooter Crysis was too über for the next-generation consoles -- the 360 and PlayStation 3 specifically. The heart of the matter related directly to DirectX 10 and it being the only way to truly unleash the beast behind this beautiful game.

Diemer was quoted as saying that "next generation consoles like the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 do not offer the sufficient power" needed for some high-quality Crysis action. This news comes counter to the recent news that the Crytek team was looking for some PS3 worker bees for a possible Crysis port to the system. We may not see Crysis on the PS3, but it's still entirely possible we may see Crysis-like games in the future on Sony's console.

Crysis does look like an amazing game, and I'm glad they decided to make a DX9 version of it too.
Apparently you can even cut down smaller trees in your path. That's just awesome.

While said by many and many people; it doesn't matter as long as they don't give the graphics a higher priority than gameplay.

In my opinion, Far Cry was pretty much f***ed gameplay-wise. It just had a weird feeling of playing... in a negative way. Apparently, video game developers can only show-off and/or get attention if they have better graphics than a different game. They only want to top different software by upgrading the graphics, rather than having something completely different *cough*Wii*cough*.

Crysis looks incredibly good though. It looks like it's going to be using that open-ended style of gameplay they wanted Far Cry to have (but they rushed it). The game looks like it'll be a blast, so the graphics just make it better.

Well, it looks really impressive (and good foliage is a great way to impress me). Just not my kind of game.
