More evidence or another semi-HMV case? PS3Fanboy reports:
"An intriguing story, with interesting photos attached. We're still not convinced, however. Shops do crazy stuff all the time (HMV, anyone?). We love the idea that Crysis might be coming in the future, but until official word comes from Crytek then we're going to remain skeptical."

Crysis heading to PS3 and Xbox 360 - it's the speculation that's refused to lay down and die. And now, dangling a carrot in front of the faces of those who wish it would, Crytek says it could happen. "Theoretically, anything could run anywhere," Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli told UK PC Gamer magazine when asked if he still believed the first-person shooter couldn't run on console. "Crysis could be on the 360 or PS3," Yerli said. "It requires optimization, that's what we've always communicated," he ... » Read More

Epic Games' vice president has said that he reckons the limitations of home consoles will choke the graphical progress of many PC games for years to come. He said:

"...I don't see people going way, way over what these consoles can do because then they can't sell the game... they have to dumb the games down for the consoles. Consoles will pretty much define what the next five years of games look like on the PC."

Crytek have cleared up a bit of confusion around the plot of the Crysis story. For some time now there have been two slightly different stories running side-by-side around the net. Here's the new official plot...

Yesterday's openly salvo of GameTrailers.com's "E3 Business & Media Summit Awards" offered up nominations and winners across various categories, such as Best Racer, Best Action Adventure, Best PSP Game, and Best DS Game. And, to be honest, the winners and loses didn't really throw up many surprises.

However, today's second round of E3 Awards coverage may well stoke the fires of fervent fanboy fanaticism. And why?

Oh, because the Best First-Person Shooter category does not include nominations for Halo 3 and Killzone 2, because Sony comes under fire on various fronts in terms of Most Disappointing, and neither Mass Effect nor Assassin's Creed is given a nomination nod for Best Graphics ¿ while a revamped PC port of Gears of War certainly is.

It's been quiet on the Crysis front for too long, but EA has finally broken the silence with three new screens of its tech-powerhouse FPS, which can be found here. Two of the screens depict action from the game's second act, which takes place after the militaristic shootouts between the US and North Korean armies in a cheerful tropical environment take a frosty turn. With the locality plunged into a sudden ice age by alien invaders, these thermo-meddling ALFs join in the fight, and the ... » Read More

Efluxmedia.com reports:

"Gamers, rejoice! Thy God hath bestowed His merciful hand upon thy humble heads, and yes, thou shall be able to play Crysis this fall!

That's right, your prayers have been listened: after an eternity of waiting, numerous delays and jaw-dropping videos depicting CryENGINE 2's outstanding performances, EA has finally launched the Crysis official site, available at ea.com/crysis. BTW, you should all get the wallpaper and beware of the more detailed in-game movies¿

But besides the novelty brought by the site's launch, there's one aspect we should all praise: Crysis is now scheduled for this autumn! (It's about time, Blizzard would say¿) If you'll take a look at the "Features" section of the site, you'll notice that in the upper left corner of the screen there's a hint concerning the ship date, which is¿ you guessed it, "fall 2007"!

That doesn't necessarily remove the doubts that are still hovering over the highly-anticipated game (I've seen Crytek's developers saying that Crysis will come out in "early 2007"¿), but it's still the first credible sign (since it's on the official site¿) that Crysis is approaching the finish line. What more do you need when you have even the pre-orders section ready¿

Speaking of pre-orders, Amazon is already offering the game indicating that the launch date is September 11! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this, but there you have it: the game will have a price of $49,99 and eager customers who pre-order it will also get a redemption code and instructions for downloading the unlockable "NK Amphibious APC"- a vehicle kept secret until now in all Crysis previews. EBGames and GameStop are also pointing to the fact that Crysis will land on stores' shelves as early as September 11, while Game.co.uk "postpones" the European debut all the way until September 14."
