EA has revealed PC-exclusive Crysis’ sequel will be getting a multiplayer demo next week – exclusive to Xbox 360.
In a move that has unsurprisingly led to some rage-filled (yet amusing) comments from PC gamers who are big fans of the franchise over on NeoGAF, the demo will be released next Tuesday for Xbox Live Gold members and will feature two modes (Team Instant Action and Crash Site) on the game’s Skyline map.
There’s no word of any demo before or after launch for the other two platforms, but the full game will be released on 360, PC, and PS3 on March 25th.

There must be something in here market research-wise that says 360 owners love to have a little extra something at the expense of others, and this is likely to generate more sales than they will lose from the other platforms.
Some OTT research bull like that is the only reason I can think of for this lol. Or they’re scared that the PC community will rip it to pieces if they get a demo……more than if they don’t.

First welcome to TSA
Second How is this a crap version? You have not explained it. It is just like it’s PC counterpart but with different graphics due to the limitations of the current console tech. It still looks good.
The song that is played in the trailer is also the same one that is played in the DKF trailer.
