Crysis 3

Pretty excited for this, looks like they made an effort to provide some more open environments like the first game and blend the best aspects of Crysis 1 and 2 together. Also love using bows in games.

Something I am wondering though is have they shown any console footage?Seems like the videos so far have been the PC version, just wondering about how many sacrifices they had to make to get the game to run properly on consoles.

Here's the nanosuit gameplay trailer.

So, all the new technology (like leaves that look amazing and sharp up close) is in the game's 360/PS3 version?

Well, you would have to expect some sacrifices to be made considering how outdated the hardware is. Lower resolution than the PC version is a given. The CEO of Crytek did say that the game would be the best looking game on consoles, and I am inclined to believe him, but it still won't look nearly as good as the PC version. I am ok with that though, since the gameplay looks really good/fun in the videos they have shown. I would like to see at least a little console footage though.

I'll be waiting for the PS4/Xbox 720 version (I hope) that should be more in line with the PC version.

That seems a little bit extreme. The gameplay and missions will still be exactly the same as the PC Version, the core gameplay is not being altered in anyway. By console standards the game will still most likely look better than pretty much anything out at the moment. The reason I enjoy the Crysis series, is because of the gameplay and possibilities created by the nanosuit. Graphics are a nice bonus, but graphics don't make a good game. If the game delivers in the gameplay department and is a little more open like Crysis 1 I see no reason to miss out on the experience just because the console verson doesn't look as good as the pc version.

I hear you, I have such a huge backlog that I want to wait on this one since this series is so well known as a graphical showcase. I want to hold out and see it in all it's glory since I'm console only as far as gaming. Played some 2 on the PS3 and it didn't really grab me.
