Crytek CEO : Crysis est meilleur que tous les jeux PS4 ne le seront jamais

Those PlayStation 4 game trailers sure look impressive, but don’t get too excited. According to Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli, no next gen console will be able to match the graphics fidelity of Crysis 3 running on a high end PC.

It all boils down to economics in the end, or in Yerli’s own words: “It’s impossible to package $2000-3000 into a mainstream, let’s say $500 console. I’m not saying they are $500 consoles. They may launch a console at $2000, but the consumer pricing is usually much lower than that.”

“So, given consumer pricing, and given the cost of production of a gamer PC and the amount of watt of power it needs, which is like a fridge, it’s impossible.”

“It’s very difficult to compete with that. People have these massive nuclear power plants standing in their rooms that will run your games really fast. It’s hard to compete with,” a-t-il ajouté.
