*"I actually forgot the first Crysis was even on console"* It's not. The game they released for the 360 under the name 'Crysis' is not the same game as Crysis. It is a very, very different experience, from fundamental gameplay, to physics, to graphics. Sometimes there are changes when a game is ported to another platform, but there is clearly a point at which a port is so different--at which it has been dialed down and scaled back so much--that it's not accurate or honest to call it the same game. If Crysis could run on the 360, it would have been released on the 360 in the first place. Cevat Yerli of all people would not have left that money on the table. Quite simply, if a person has only played "Crysis" on the console, he has not actually played Crysis. And for my part, I sincerely encourage everyone who loves First-Person Shooters to get in front of a PC and try Crysis at least once.
C2 and C3 run at 60fps at high to very high Settings with 8700k@4,8Ghz/2080Ti(noOC). Why bother with 30 fps. I would not mind IF the games‘ pace isn‘t too fast.

I just bought RD2 a couple of weeks ago on Steam. I've never been into westerns and things in that vein. I bought it because it was on sale (we need a Steam sale hotline kind of like a gambling hotline). I'm now completely enamored with the game. It's gorgeous. I've come to enjoy trotting through towns on my horse, greeting everyone. Sometimes, when I'm driving my car, and I turn off a main street into my neighborhood, I get the same feeling seeing all the people on the sidewalks, going about their day. I would open my window and say something, but this is Chicago. People will think I'm crazy. 🤣🤣🤣
Red Dead Redemption II? Well, we get a game like that only once per century, so please enjoy; you'll never be able to experience it for the first time ever again. Hahahahahahahaha! Chicago reminds me of Watch Dogs. 😆
PS3 was a disaster when it released, as the architecture was so different, few developers even knew how to program for it. Lots of PS3 games are very unoptimized for this very reason.
It's incredible how much work they put in to the console port. They basically reworked the entire game to be more stable yet still have a gorgeous appearance. I wish game developers put this much time and effort into games nowadays..
I remember when we got this PC from my Uncle, it's laughable now, but back then it was a beast. He had Crysis installed on it, and I played it for the first time when I was about 12-13 or something. Before that, I had only ever played my loveable Gamecube games. But when I played Crysis on PC for the first time, I just sat there looking at EVERYTHING. I picked up turtles, and literally spent hours on that first beach area, just playing with interactable stuff. Now about 10 years later, I'm studying game development, and I really think it was Crysis that put that pure love for games into my heart.
the ps3 has two separte pools of 256mb. it's the xbox 360 that had one pool of 512 mb that it could allocate to system or gpu as needed. that was actually a huge advantage for the microsoft console.
Me too, that mission was full of bugs and framerates were awful.. I got drops to 30 with overclocked 6700K and sometimes you got like stuck to the ground when you approach a tornado and you couldn't move until vtol explodes.. It was so annoying..
? i use my gtx 1050 ti and it runs crysis at all max + extra mods for better graphics etc fuckin great i replayed it probably around more times than i can count
@@fitmotheyap I had a 8800gts at the time, i ran the game at 1080p maxed out except for the anti aliasing and sat confortably between 30/45 if i remember well
Let's not forget, in that time 1280x1024 was a common resolution, and "high-end gaming" meant 1680x1050 Had my own benchmarks ove the years: 2 cors will be fine. A 3rd core ads maybe 5% more performance, and that's it.
I remember being so happy when Crysis ran on my new PC at 30 fps and 1280x1024 resolution. Recently upgraded to a WQHD screen and I makes me giggle when thinking about my previous experiences in regards to frame rates and resolution.
I didn't realise just how little RAM was used in the last generation of consoles. 512 and 256mb? And here I have 32gb of ram in my pc. Times have changed alot.
@Gandharv Mohan i think maybe that with the pc version you could use reshade to give it the same tone and style of the xbox version if you really wanted.
Hell no. Crysis on PC all the way. I haven't played on PC for a long time since i bought inferior platform ( Mac ), but PC is the best platform for gaming. Nothing beats PC.
I recently tried the 360 version on my one x. It runs really good under emulation. It really does hold up. It ran awful back in 2011 though. I was really hoping we would get a 4k patch.
The fact they got it running on these consoles at 720p just by updating to CryEngine 3, just indicates the original issue was with CryEngine 2 requiring more powerful PCs. But I played this on the Xbox 360 and enjoyed it.
They removed a ton of little details for consoles. A ton of things were changed lol. It's not just a small difference cry engine is cryengoen it's the same engine upgraded and rebuilt.
@@yulfine1688 I didn't bring this up, because I can't remember specifics, but I remember seeing a video at the time. Cryengine 3 is more efficient with resource management. That is what I was getting at. "In fact, combine the latest and greatest Intel Core i7 8700K overclocked to 5.0GHz with an Nvidia Titan Xp and there'll still be areas of the game that drop beneath 60fps - even at 1080p." www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2018-why-crysis-still-melts-the-fastest-gaming-pcs-10-years-later
Crysis 1 was built so that people would upgrade their PCs. Crytek was hoping for big hardware improvements, so gamers could play Crysis in 60 fps on High. Their didn't even plan on releasing it on consoles, but so many PC gamers pirated their game (including me), that they were forced to release it on consoles, instead of making much more advanced Crysis 2 for PCs only. I do think that piracy is the reason why Crysis 2 wasn't as demanding and PC focused as Crysis 1. Funnily enough, my friend played Crysis 1 pirated on ... Xbox 360. Back then piracy was strong in my country, so many people were doing it, that it didn't even feel that wrong. By 2011, PCs were much further ahead of consoles, but at least Crysis 2 run pretty well, my PC could run it easily.
It's because at the time, games weren't limited to console level hardware like today, which is why most games are programed for consoles and then ported to pc
@@dardoura PC market is so much weaker than consoles. You can't blame the consoles for the pc having shit games. You do remember that Crytek went under because of wasting so much time and effort trying to cater for the top 1% of hardware setups.
When Crysis came out, 1080p was not the standard mainstream resolution it is now. If you tested at 1280x1024, the 8800gts would have done much better. Antialiasing was a luxury option as well. Not like today where it's enabled on every title without much trouble.
Crysis 1 on PC was made with a color scheme and art style purely for realism and its part of why I still think it looks more realistic than most games released today.
It may not as good but it looks like it feels better as a shooter. Makes me really wish theyd make crysis 1 on the cryengine 3 for pc so i could play it.
I’ve played Crysis on Xbox 360, on my Core i7 Alienware laptop with GTX 1080 and on my Core i9 desktop with 2080Ti. 360 actually ran Crysis, Crysis 2 and Crysis 3 pretty well, but with a lot of blur. Thing is, once you play it in 1080p with at least a 1060 on a Core i7, it looks perfect.
Crysis was a great game. I remember buying my first PC with my graduation money in 2008. It was a HP Pavilion dv2700t laptop with a 8400M GS a core 2 duo and 3GB of ram. I could barely run it at 30 fps and I think the resolution was well below 720p at what I believe was the lowest settings. Good times good times.
true for most 3rd party games. some do make use of specific instructions for the target hardware. like they can run on base PS4 flawlessly, while a comparable PC specs would run like dogshit.
Even the xbox one s runs all games at 1080p 60fps excluding backwards compatible games which are 30fps. Which is fine for something i put absolutely no work in and only cost $150
You should do a video on those VIA EPIA "Windows Desktop PC" Pico ITX barebones PC's. I'd like to see the gaming performance, and whether it actually can run Windows 10. They're selling for about £50-£100 on eBay.
Man, this Onslaught mission (tank mission) was amazing, I played it over and over and discovered, killed everything in that huge map. Looking back, it still looks good. Textures are decent, models have just enough polygons, cinematic effects, explosions and physics are insane. Even todays some AAA games have less object interaction in open world maps like Crysis had. Also, does anyone remember the Dx10 scam in this game, most likely put because of Microsoft? Vista wasnt selling good (cuz it sucked) and most people decided to stick with XP even sacrificing Dx10 capability (it was only on Vista, but thats not the scam). So in Crysis Very High settings have said to be only Dx10 feature and only could be enabled on Vista. High and Very High image quality difference was noticeble unlike other Dx10 games/demos we had seen so far. I remember my friends from forums switching just for that reason. Yet later it is discovered that you could activate VeryHigh settings in XP and under Dx9 by some config edit. AND IT LOOKED EXACTLY THE SAME xD I still remember the debate went on the hardware forums about that... Those were good times, I'm not sad, just glad that they happened :)

2 quote paraphrase responses: "It was said the Ascension level was removed not for its complexity, but simply because it wasn't fun to play, however, I'm not sure I believe that." Believe it dude, I died so many times on that map I googled a console command to skip it. "I didn't notice the difference in graphics until I put the XBOX 360 and PC versions side by side. Which do you like better? I think it's completely up to personal preference." ...No. The PC version is an entire objective generational leap ahead in the lighting, and the bluer tint in the console version doesn't fit the tropical feel the game should have. If I were inside any windowless vehicle that was lit like the 360 version of the Pelican*, I'd rather put on a blindfold than open my eyes during the flight. Outdoors fare better on console, but that lighting inside that flying vehicle was really ugly.
I was building the world's best computers when this came out. A packed system with quality sound card and speak system. Setting up and demoing for a client... Crisis was a jaw dropper for him, from the sound to the graphics. -sli graphics! I heard the Xbox was based on the x800 GPU?
It's said at times that the PS3 is more powerful than the 360 (even if only ever so slightly), which means, even if difficult to program for, shows that some of the games were developed horribly. A minimum of 12FPS is just criminal.
Actually while the PS3 had better hardware and ran most games worse then the 360. Microsoft was cheekie and allowed the cpu and gpu to share memory which allowed the Xbox to run programs more efficiently. www.ign.com/articles/2010/08/26/xbox-360-vs-playstation-3-the-hardware-throwdown ( I have to say i would not be surprised if the 360 port of this game got better treatment then the PS3 port.)
Developers shouldn't be dumbed down by stupid decisions like the split memory pool of the PS3, nor the lack of unified shaders on it's GPU. Sony should have thought things better
I am simply amazed that this game was released at all. Also, remember that Crysis on 360 was a DX9, vs DX10 on PC. However, offering the chance to play this title at all is amazing.
This game had such a good mod community back in the day, you mention "what were they thinking" recommended an nvidia 8800 but that card was very capable of running the game well enough on modded very high settings that could potentially drastically change the look of the game, depending what you're going for. Crysis had such mind blowing graphics back in the day, I could just stare at it. I still don't think any modern game has truly surpassed it, the particles, physics, scale, textures, lighting still holds up, there's not enough FPS games where you can throw a grenade in a building and watch it blow to shreds.
They run at 24 fps...its because of motion blur and frame smoothing and overlapping that fixes it. Now run it on a monitor not a TV and say the same thing...run it on a pc at the same fps and say the same thing. Then run it at 60 then at 120
The way things were designed back then in comparison to now is drastically different. Everything back then was made to last and be used for years to come, but that's changed because of the market and consumers. Nowadays everything is re-usable, disposable, cheap hardware made to be replaced and that's thanks to mass production and greedy cash grabs by those at the top in this industry. Its horrible. The charismatic energy and time spent on a project like this just isn't the same anymore.
Its probably more of a game limitation than a hardware problem. There are a lot of games that can't get high framerates easily because they were developed with 60 fps in mind more often than not.
The first time I played through Crysis, it was On XBOX 360 and that was after playing through Crysis 2. More recently I played through Crysis, Crysis Warhead and Crysis 2 all on maximum settings with my Core i9, 2080Ti and 32GB DDR4. The game ran fairly well on my 360 but graphics were stunning on my PC. Strength and Speed modes are eliminated which makes gameplay easier on the controller like Crysis 2. With mouse and keyboard, toggling modes is slower. I think one of the biggest problems is that Crysis MINIMUM SETTINGS are misleading. The whole point of playing this game is running it in full settings at 1080p.
You started the video quickly, so I hit the like button quickly. Oh, I like your accent. Edit: Oh wow, great comparison screenshots, you can definitely see the engine change's effects.

Ah, Crysis. The game that can run on PCs from 2002, 2007, 2022 and beyond, that created SSAO, that introduced amazing water waves, that introduced sun shafts, that introduced volumetric clouds, that showcased DirectX10, that introduced per object motion blur, that had the first post-process AA, but only for tree leaves. A game that later in its remastered form, has a form of RTGI, has DLSS, TAA and raytracing via software across any Vulkan capable GPU. That has ray tracing even on 8th gen consoles, insanity (X1X, XSX, PS4 Pro, PS5)
I think i had a 8800GTX 320/320 back then, in DirectX10, V.High Settings 1280x1024 i clearly remember that i had abou 15-20 fps. in the last boss fight on the aircraft carrier.
i had a 7300gt 256mb in the 2007 and in "core" mission and the last one i played en 800x600 14fps, never was so hard to pass one game in my entire life

Quite frankly I'm amazed. I'd never seen footage of the console version until today and it's a LOT prettier than I expected it to be. Contrast is a bit much, but it looked better than the PC original in places.
The pc version has more light so you see more detail The xbox version has less light, meaning even if there was more detail you wouldn't see it, so there is most likely less detail.

Crysis is the most memorial game i ever played since childhood where this game also brought me to interest of graphics for the first time back then. also playing with mods is awesome especially if you play mutant factor, star gate, parkour, jumper, escape paradise, predator heat of the jungle, lost control, Project Alliance 5, Craftable, Killer's Skill, pandora also fact Nuclear Cataclysm mod was set in 2020
The coolest thing is that even if you like the enhanced lightning of the X360 version of the game, you can mod the PC version of Crysis to achieve a similar (if not even better) result, with better texture aswell. Aaahhhh the awesome world of PC gaming 😌😆
Crysis 1 on PC has one of the best lighting models that actually resembles real life. No over exposed colors, or wacky post process going on. Its a shame though PC never got the Xbox 360 port. Moving Crysis to the new engine meant better multi-core support and performance overall. I always wished they would offer it on PC down the line.
I remember buying Crysis back then, playing the living hell out of it and spamming my friends, reassuring them that it was the most advanced graphical game ever while I showed them gameplay on Low settings. Good times. My PC was cooking even on Low.
Thanks for the Video. Loved it! I have the PS3 versions of Crysis and 1 and 2nd installments for PC. I still Love placing this game till today. The Pc version has way more detail and perks than console
I remember when this released.on console. Especially because it was last gen, the PS3 and the 360. Crysis running at native 720p on a GeForce 7800GTX and an ATI X1900. Cevat Yerli, and his team of ABSOLUTE MADLADS did it. They did this sorcery.

This was how I first played Crysis, and I can only say I'm happy the Vtol mission didn't make it
The VTOL segment wasn't that bad but it was a bitch to run if you couldn't keep a stable framerate flying became very difficult

@Reapplied well now I have an AMD RX 460 back then I had and ATI HD 5450

Crysis 1 was built so that people would upgrade their PCs. Crytek was hoping for big hardware improvements, so gamers could play Crysis in 60 fps on High. Their didn't even plan on releasing it on consoles, but so many PC gamers pirated their game (including me), that they were forced to release it on consoles, instead of making much more advanced Crysis 2 for PCs only. I do think that piracy is the reason why Crysis 2 wasn't as demanding and PC focused as Crysis 1. Funnily enough, my friend played Crysis 1 pirated on ... Xbox 360. Back then piracy was strong in my country, so many people were doing it, that it didn't even feel that wrong. By 2011, PCs were much further ahead of consoles, but at least Crysis 2 run pretty well, my PC could run it easily.

Nisanth Jena no really we can do better the thing is that there is no enough ideas out there.
It's because at the time, games weren't limited to console level hardware like today, which is why most games are programed for consoles and then ported to pc
@@dardoura I play vr with a 1070, and knowing ps5 and next xbox are more powerful than my pc is scary. I hope I can play my games for some time
@@dardoura PC market is so much weaker than consoles. You can't blame the consoles for the pc having shit games.
You do remember that Crytek went under because of wasting so much time and effort trying to cater for the top 1% of hardware setups.
When Crysis came out, 1080p was not the standard mainstream resolution it is now. If you tested at 1280x1024, the 8800gts would have done much better. Antialiasing was a luxury option as well. Not like today where it's enabled on every title without much trouble.
Another great video from my favorite Crysis chanel: RandomCrysisinHD
Nice pfp man
Crysis 1 on PC was made with a color scheme and art style purely for realism and its part of why I still think it looks more realistic than most games released today.
I much prefer the sound effects (especially the gun's) on the console side but the graphics on the PC side do look better. Less glare and such.

It may not as good but it looks like it feels better as a shooter. Makes me really wish theyd make crysis 1 on the cryengine 3 for pc so i could play it.
I’ve played Crysis on Xbox 360, on my Core i7 Alienware laptop with GTX 1080 and on my Core i9 desktop with 2080Ti. 360 actually ran Crysis, Crysis 2 and Crysis 3 pretty well, but with a lot of blur. Thing is, once you play it in 1080p with at least a 1060 on a Core i7, it looks perfect.

Crysis was a great game. I remember buying my first PC with my graduation money in 2008. It was a HP Pavilion dv2700t laptop with a 8400M GS a core 2 duo and 3GB of ram. I could barely run it at 30 fps and I think the resolution was well below 720p at what I believe was the lowest settings. Good times good times.
"Console optimization" nowadays is just a fancy way of saying "lower settings". Change my mind. :P
true for most 3rd party games. some do make use of specific instructions for the target hardware. like they can run on base PS4 flawlessly, while a comparable PC specs would run like dogshit.
Even the xbox one s runs all games at 1080p 60fps excluding backwards compatible games which are 30fps. Which is fine for something i put absolutely no work in and only cost $150

Man, this Onslaught mission (tank mission) was amazing, I played it over and over and discovered, killed everything in that huge map. Looking back, it still looks good. Textures are decent, models have just enough polygons, cinematic effects, explosions and physics are insane. Even todays some AAA games have less object interaction in open world maps like Crysis had.
Also, does anyone remember the Dx10 scam in this game, most likely put because of Microsoft? Vista wasnt selling good (cuz it sucked) and most people decided to stick with XP even sacrificing Dx10 capability (it was only on Vista, but thats not the scam). So in Crysis Very High settings have said to be only Dx10 feature and only could be enabled on Vista. High and Very High image quality difference was noticeble unlike other Dx10 games/demos we had seen so far. I remember my friends from forums switching just for that reason. Yet later it is discovered that you could activate VeryHigh settings in XP and under Dx9 by some config edit. AND IT LOOKED EXACTLY THE SAME xD
I still remember the debate went on the hardware forums about that... Those were good times, I'm not sad, just glad that they happened :)
I thought the sound effects for the guns sounded much nicer on the console ports

2 quote paraphrase responses:
"It was said the Ascension level was removed not for its complexity, but simply because it wasn't fun to play, however, I'm not sure I believe that."
Believe it dude, I died so many times on that map I googled a console command to skip it.
"I didn't notice the difference in graphics until I put the XBOX 360 and PC versions side by side. Which do you like better? I think it's completely up to personal preference."
...No. The PC version is an entire objective generational leap ahead in the lighting, and the bluer tint in the console version doesn't fit the tropical feel the game should have. If I were inside any windowless vehicle that was lit like the 360 version of the Pelican*, I'd rather put on a blindfold than open my eyes during the flight. Outdoors fare better on console, but that lighting inside that flying vehicle was really ugly.
I really wonder if we could mod that outdoor lighting into Crysis PC, would look gooood.

I heard the Xbox was based on the x800 GPU?
It's said at times that the PS3 is more powerful than the 360 (even if only ever so slightly), which means, even if difficult to program for, shows that some of the games were developed horribly. A minimum of 12FPS is just criminal.
Actually while the PS3 had better hardware and ran most games worse then the 360. Microsoft was cheekie and allowed the cpu and gpu to share memory which allowed the Xbox to run programs more efficiently. www.ign.com/articles/2010/08/26/xbox-360-vs-playstation-3-the-hardware-throwdown ( I have to say i would not be surprised if the 360 port of this game got better treatment then the PS3 port.)
Developers shouldn't be dumbed down by stupid decisions like the split memory pool of the PS3, nor the lack of unified shaders on it's GPU. Sony should have thought things better
By 2011 it was very apparent how bad the Xbox was compared to the PS3 graphics wise.
@@Clay3613 lol no. Both were top tier though. PS3 had games like Last of Us and Uncharted 3, but 360 had Rise of the Tomb Raider, i.e.

Hey, I just want to say you're my favorite RUclipsr. This channel reminds me of simpler times before the corporate sponsorship came.

This game had such a good mod community back in the day, you mention "what were they thinking" recommended an nvidia 8800 but that card was very capable of running the game well enough on modded very high settings that could potentially drastically change the look of the game, depending what you're going for. Crysis had such mind blowing graphics back in the day, I could just stare at it. I still don't think any modern game has truly surpassed it, the particles, physics, scale, textures, lighting still holds up, there's not enough FPS games where you can throw a grenade in a building and watch it blow to shreds.
its funny when people say how low the fps are on xbox 360 and ps3 games when i am playing them it never feels like the fps are that low
They run at 24 fps...its because of motion blur and frame smoothing and overlapping that fixes it. Now run it on a monitor not a TV and say the same thing...run it on a pc at the same fps and say the same thing. Then run it at 60 then at 120
@@yulfine1688 yeah because it's actually easier to view something with your eyes on a TV compared to a PC screen. Literally what do you expect?
crysis was known it was gonna run slow so it always looks smooth where 24 fps looks like 30, thats how it ran on my old pc from 10 years ago gtx 260
The way things were designed back then in comparison to now is drastically different. Everything back then was made to last and be used for years to come, but that's changed because of the market and consumers. Nowadays everything is re-usable, disposable, cheap hardware made to be replaced and that's thanks to mass production and greedy cash grabs by those at the top in this industry. Its horrible. The charismatic energy and time spent on a project like this just isn't the same anymore.
You can still not hit 144fps in this game on maxed settings in 1440p.
No matter what you do.
Its probably more of a game limitation than a hardware problem. There are a lot of games that can't get high framerates easily because they were developed with 60 fps in mind more often than not.
The first time I played through Crysis, it was
On XBOX 360 and that was after playing through Crysis 2.
More recently I played through Crysis, Crysis Warhead and Crysis 2 all on maximum settings with my Core i9, 2080Ti and 32GB DDR4.
The game ran fairly well on my 360 but graphics were stunning on my PC.
Strength and Speed modes are eliminated which makes gameplay easier on the controller like Crysis 2. With mouse and keyboard, toggling modes is slower.
I think one of the biggest problems is that Crysis MINIMUM SETTINGS are misleading. The whole point of playing this game is running it in full settings at 1080p.

Crysis 1 on PC has one of the best lighting models that actually resembles real life. No over exposed colors, or wacky post process going on. Its a shame though PC never got the Xbox 360 port. Moving Crysis to the new engine meant better multi-core support and performance overall. I always wished they would offer it on PC down the line.
Crysis on Xbox is on a whole different engine with a bunch more effects and optimizations, how's that a fair comparison?
