Crytek ha desvelado que mostrará el motor CryENGINE 2 corriendo en XBOX360 y Playstation 3 en la próxima GDC a una audiencia reducida. ¿Querrá decir esto que pronto veremos una versión de Crysis para las consolas de nueva generación?

CryENGINE 2 Running On PS3/X360 To Be Shown at GDC
Posted on Tuesday, January 29 @ 06:21:26 PST
Crytek will demonstrate their CryENGINE 2 game development middleware and their Sandbox 2 game editor at this year's Game Developer Conference, for the first time running on multiple hardware platforms such as the PS3 and Xbox 360.

First publicly shown at last year's conference, and recently released as the technology underlying their critically acclaimed PC game, Crysis, this year's engine will be shown for the first time running on multiple hardware platforms such as the PS3 and Xbox 360, to a select audience. In addition, there will be a public demonstration showing how well the fully optimized engine can perform on a budget PC which can be put together for around 600 dollars complete, including keyboard and mouse. Visitors will be able to see for themselves the extremely high quality that can be achieved on relatively inexpensive consumer hardware today using the CryENGINE 2.

Cevat Yerli, Sten Hübler and Bernd Diemer will host a GDC session entitled "Crysis in the Making", providing a behind the scenes look at the challenges of developing Crysis and the CryENGINE 2. Other highlights of the show will be various conference talks and discussions involving key Crytek technical staff including Chris Evans, Technical Art Lead, Tomas Neumann, Crytek's Audio Programmer, and Tiago Sousa, R&D Graphics Programmer.

In addition, Crytek will once again be hosting a series of public presentations at their booth #6611 in the North Hall, where the topics to be covered will range from live demonstrations of rapid level creation using the Sandbox 2 editor, working with the next generation features of the CryENGINE 2 animation system, adding immersive sound and interactive music to your game, to a discussion of the overall CryENGINE 2 design, graphical pipelines and overall architecture. These presentations will be lead by many of the leading members of the Crytek's game development and engine teams. For the first time, Crytek will also be joined at their booth by some of their many licensing partners, which will also show the CryENGINE 2 being used for architectural visualizations and serious games applications. Seating for the presentations is on a first come, first served basis, and likely to fill quickly. Each of these presentations will repeat twice each day; no appointment is needed to attend.

Y otra más, sobre far cry 2 (distinto de crysis pero también berraco):
[ FAR CRY 2 ] La version de 360 será identica a la de PC

Desde el foro de mericonsolas, nos llega esta gran noticia, que podrian estar esperando muchos.Todo el mundo ha pensado con que calidad gráfica llegará la secuela de FAR CRY, pues ahora, desde N4G y Computerandvideogames, nos llega la noticia de, que FAR CRY 2 en 360 será calcado a la versión de PC.


"Although the game's a giant sandbox it's not all open from the start. The second half of the map is unlocked after twelve missions, and will be much darker than the first half. Once open, you'll be able to hop between the two worlds at will. The malaria hallucinations and combat 'freak out' sections both hint towards the protagonists' decent into madness, and having seen some concept artwork we're quietly confident that the latter part of the game is going to be genuinely creepy and full of scares, without resorting to the old 'trapped in a dark cellar with a mad zombie' ruse."

"We've admittedly only got down and dirty with the PC version so far, but after questioning the producer about the 360 conversion he said something quite magical: 'It's the same game. It will be the same.' Superb."
