Cool it's games on demand, I wondered why lot's of sites were saying it was a XBLA title. If RE4 was too big for XBLA, this sure as hell was gonna be too big too.

I get my new Xbox tomorrow with a 2100pt card included, so I'll get Crysis then. Can't wait!

Downloading now ok. finally can go to bed, lol.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Hmm... Got a €15 gift certificate for a multimedia store and I'm gonna buy 2100 points with it, still debating whether I should get this or Lonesome Road. Hmm...

EDIT: Oh wait, you can't buy this with Microsoft Points?

 

[Sai]

Downloading it!

Should I purchase Crysis 2 after this? It's $40, though... Maybe I'll wait for a deal or somethin'.

Oh wait, you can't buy this with Microsoft Points?

I just did...

Go to marketplace on your 360 and when it gets to the purchase screen , press X and it'll turn the prince from real money into MS points.

That first image really doesn't help sell it.

 

[abracadaver]

1840 Points here in Australia. Good thing I got a heap of points on sale on the weekend

I wouldn't say that. The 2100 points card I bought last night was only £14.39.

Sweet, thanks. Might just get it tomorrow, then. Seems it's not up on the Belgian marketplace yet.

How's the achievement list, by the way?

 

[zaph0d]

Connected to xboxlive in Sweden, Crysis isn´t available here yet??

Did you try the link above, http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/P...77fe-1000-9115-d80245410968?DownloadType=Game that's what I used as I couldn't find it via the dashboard.

 

[evanswolves]

And no achievements by the looks of it

 

[eshwaaz]

Goddammit, it looks like they removed manual saving from the console versions. Why, Crytek?

Thx that worked, downloading now!

Is that even possible? I thought it was a rule that your game had to have achievements on 360 if it was retail/GoD/XBLA.

 

[AgentOtaku]

If it's just to make it more in line with Crysis2, that's fine. I'm not opposed to checkpoints as they can add needed tension if done right.
Never been a fan of the F5/F9 every 2 minutes approach.

I dont know haha, loaded up the game, gone to the achievement list on the xbox guide and theres nothing, xbox.com doesnt seem to recognise the game yet, comes up as playing "unkown"

 

[madmackem]

Ohhh shit this better have achievements, ive already played it on pc and the main draw was to play it again with achievements then followed by crysis 2 i got for free as a god download the other week. Resis have them dont they?.

If its a Games on Demand, it won't require Achievements. Not sure how that works on PS3, they don't have that model. However, they do of course have PS1 games which don't have Trophies, but they aren't "new" PS3 games.

Weird.

Maybe this will be the opposite of Resi 4/CV

It's a normal PSN game, this means it must have trophies.

 

[evanswolves]

Vid here showing 1000G http://www.justpushstart.com/2011/10/04/crysis-ps3-xbox-360-first-ten-minutes/ so it looks like it does have them :/ weird
Also shows 1000G in the Game Library

 

[evanswolves]

Theyre definitely in the game i just got 10

 

[abracadaver]

First impressions ? Im at 70%

 

[Hazaro]

fyi:
Longer range = less damage
Silencer = less damage (some bullets are subsonic iirc)
Heatshots to the face kill even helmeted enemies
Strength mode = more accurate aim and less recoil
Speed = faster everything (walk, melee, weapon switch)

 

[Diablohead]

x360achievements shows 0 of 0 achievements, I thought it was mandatory to have :|

I agree that intelligently placed checkpoints can be effective, but they just checkpointed me as a jeep was exploding next to me, and 3 enemies were firing at me within 20 feet away. Not a moment of confidence.

 

[Kandrick]

Yeah, we need impressions! Tempted to buy, but since it's GoD, there's no demo to check how the game runs/plays which sucks.

I don't think that is true. Every game needs Achievements except it is a Xbox Original title. But Crysis isn't one. So Crysis should have achievements.

 

[Diablohead]

I bought it 10 mins ago via the US marketplace link, it's still not showing in the UK for me.

12% so it will be a while, will give impressions and compare it to my pc copy.

 

[Backfoggen]

No achievements? Would be a first on 360.

 

[lowrider007]

ugh, no achievements?, where do I send my twitter rants?

 

[abracadaver]

There are achievements. Read the thread

 

[SmokedMeat]

Can't wait to snag this when I get home. Is it better or worse than Crysis 2?

 

[Hunter-Zero]

About the achievements/trophies:

Quite clear to me.

Sweet, Crysis averted then

 

[Kurdel]

Not on PSN yet.

lol, certainly not

 

[ukresistance]

Achievements are fucked up. Not surprising, as Crysis 2 has a few that are still unpatched 8 months later.

 

[abracadaver]

My download is finished. Gonna play now

 

[madmackem]

Wow it plays really well and looks stunning, very impressed so far about 20 minutes in. When did you guys get the first achievo points as i aint got any yet and it isnt showing on the games list.

 

[-SD-]

Better thread title would be "Can it run Crysis?"

"Can it ruin Crysis?" would be the best title.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

This is not true in the console version, it uses Crysis 2's power setup.

I may just hold off if that's the case.

Can anyone on here confirm if the achievements are upping their gamer-score?

Goddamn. Will play with a secound account until this is fixed
