Crytek is asserting that Crysis remains a PC only title, wanting to focus on the one platform. However, it's likely that PS3 or Xbox 360 could do the game justice, even if Crysis doesn't reach console-land until long after the PC release at the very end of this year. And it would be a massive disappointment if that didn't happen. Crysis is going to be an experience no one will want to miss.
