Crytek Up For A New Crysis?

I can't believe this guys! The 3rd Crysis hasn't even been released yet and they're planning a forth one? I don't know about you but it seems a lot like Crytek is giving in to all the pressure and hype building around FPS' these days. Who can blame 'em? Crytek did in fact give us one of the best looking games on console: Crysis 2 - spectacular results all thanks to a next-gen game engine, CryEngine 3.


Granted, the story was a little bland and despite it's forgettable characters and glitchy AI, Crysis 2 was pretty fun to play through. Same can't be said about Crysis 3 though -- because it hasn't been released yet. See what I did there? Crytek is in fact planning on a new Crysis. Just don't call it Crysis 4! 

Crytek's Cevat Yerli had this to say: "We are excited about the DNA of Crysis and of the franchise. There can be literally tonnes of titles out there within the franchise. Unlike Far Cry, this time around we feel very flexible about Crysis," Adding to his interview with Eurogamer, "I wouldn't name it Crysis 4 at this stage because it would be misleading. We want to finalize Prophet's story and Crysis 4 would imply the story just moves on."

And if you're wondering when this is likely to happen: "Normally in this time right now we would already have pre-production going on, but because we want to make this something much more radical and new we are looking at it as a bit of a long term thing. It's too early to about it for these reasons."

So there you have it, a new Crysis is on it's way. My guess is that it'll most likely be pushed into the next-gen releases. Possibly, a launch title for the Xbox 720 and/or Playstation 4? 

What do you guys think? Comment away!

3 Reasons You Can't Wait For The Walking Dead Episode 5


If you've been following Telltale's critically-acclaimed video game adaptation of The Walking Dead, then you are as excited as I am! Which means you really can't wait to get your hands on that last episode! Here's 3 Reasons why...


Assassin's Creed Revelations - Does It Deliver...? [Non-Story Review]



Assassin’s Creed has not only introduced the world to the incredible potential of next-gen gaming, but also to the visually spectacular work that can be produced under strict timeframes. It goes without saying that the AC franchise hit the ground running after unveiling Altair’s saga in November of 2007. However, as of 5 years ago, we as core gamers have come to expect more from the franchise. Some of our expectations include: less linear gameplay, a larger variety of side missions, better and smarter AI/NPCs, and much less diluted and more ‘eye-poppingly’ accurate environments that beg you to free-run through them.
