Hmm, looks good. Hope you can actually use the suit functions this time. The first one was great and all, but strength was damned near worthless and speed wasn't much better. I spent 80% of the game with shields or invisibility on.

Also hoping that it's better coded and my laptop can handle it.

Does it really matter that much?

We want PC games, not console crap. We look at these trailers to see if we want buy a PC game, not console crap.

I thought this has been pretty straight forward for the last couple years now?

Its just a trailer. The trailer isnt even in HD, yet you want a trailer thats specifically taken from the PC version?

From the trailer, you can get the general jist of the gameplay. Which is all you really need to know at this stage. Surely they will release a more detailed High Def trailer based on the PC version with all the eye candy cranked up at a later date.

But if were taking about the whole console port debate, not console cased games trailer....yeah your right, they suck balls!

he is just angry because Crysis 2 was developed for consoles not the PC like the original. Crytek doesn't love the PC market. Crytek loves money and it's the console market that will make it for them.

That is a shit move on Cryteks behalf. But you can see why they do it.

Erm like all modern game's they are developed on the PC and ported to the xbox360 and ps3 using software. The software pretty much disables features the consoles can't use and lowers the resolution of textures. The reason we had a swath of bad games wasn't because of consoles but because of bad developers and publishers who rushed the devs.

Why would they even bother making a console version? Console versions wouldn't do justice for this game.

LOL, if the game is now a generic alien blasting first person shooter, I cant see why it wouldnt work. It will just look better on the PC and have more responsive controls.

This thread isnt about console hate, its about Crysis 2, the game.

Yeah your right.

This game will be awesome. My friends who only play console games thought crysis' graphics were good and that MW2's were absolutely amazing. So I can't wait for them to get this and see real graphic designers at work.

That how it should be, when the COD franchise screwed PC gamers with Modern Warfare 2 which had less features than Modern Warfare 1. PC gamers became smart and didnt buy Black Ops.


Edit:

DS, Wii, PC 400k

With that logic the Call of Duty will not return to the DS or Wii either? The Wii is one of the fastest selling consoles, of course its coming back to the Wii! :)

They could do it for love, but love doesn't pay the bills (or the employees).
They are a business, they have to be concerned about the money or they won't be in business very long.

They had a spread on this in PCGamer some time back. Looks like it could be good.
I'm not a big shooter fan, though. Would probably be more interested if I had a good enough internet connection to play online.
