I fail to see how Crysis being a 360 exclusive would have affected the gaming world significantly... Sure PC gamers would have had to find another game to crucify their computers with but that can't be to difficult a gap too fill right?.
Microsoft Nearly Bought Crysis Dev
- Thread starter Logan Westbrook
- Start date

the visuals and gripping atmosphere had me gaping, but admittedly I lost interest and spent the remainder of my GameFly trial playing the likes of Lego Pirates of the Caribbean instead lol
I'll give it another shot eventually (maybe spend more time in the multiplayer, it was pretty cool)
Too many Scifi-shooters? Right, that's why they just announced a new trilogy... of Halo games.
(And the amount of active SciFi shooters out there on XBOX and Windows Live isn't really lower than back when Microsoft considered buying Crytek...)

Damn, that's lucky!
I wonder how Crysis would have looked like with M$, it would have hampered sales of high end PCs quite a bit at least. How sad that we would never have experienced the phrase "will it run Crysis?"
I wonder if Timesplitters 4 will be a "720" exclusive. Man that would suck, and not at all surprise me.

I wonder how profitable crysis 2 was?
Probably the only time i actually don't like that the PC platforms turns so much profit via digital >< Crytek deserve to collapse after crysis 2

Well then I guess it's good they didn't then because crysis would of been made for consoles and the pc version would of just been a bad port.
Well I heard Crytek is makinf the next Timesplitters, had I of owned a PS3 I would probably have frothy white stuff coming from my mouth right now, but I own a X-box so... I really couldn't care either way.
Yeah, but Mass Effect 1 is a Kotor clone. They sure only did it because Kotor sales figure were decent enough in the original Xbox. You could have remembered of Jade Empire. Microsoft plays it safe. IloMilo and Trenched are huge exceptions to what Microsoft publishes.Azaraxzealot said:

Microsoft: "Hey, everybody, we considered buying the Crysis people because their game makes a lot of money, but we've decided not to because we think they're copying us." *shame inducing grimace*
Seriously, this sounds like they're just trying to get people to stop being so excited about a game that is in every way superior to their own without even being all that impressive of a game.
