Though originally disappointing a sizable portion of the FPS demographic by releasing demos of Crysis 2 for both the PC and Xbox 360, leaving Sonyites out in the cold, Crytek have strongly hinted at a similar early-glimpse for PS3 fans.
Speaking at the recent Electronic Arts “Swing Into Spring” event, Executive Producer Nathan Camarillo reiterated the studio’s inclusive stance when it comes to demos:
We want as many people to play Crysis 2 as possible. I can’t say anything too specific … we haven’t announced [the demo] yet.
Camarillo went on to confirm that the game will be supported with DLC (we’d be more surprised if it wasn’t supported with DLC to be honest) and that there are no disparities between the two console versions. He said:
People can try to find them, but they won’t find anything. They both run great, they both play great whether you’re playing single-player or multiplayer — they’re identical offerings. The quality is outstanding on both of them; there’s really no difference.
Be that as it may, we know a few people who are unlikely to take Camarillo’s word for it and will be counting pixels into the wee hours of the morning come March 25th.

I think this is one of those games that just would have been better as 3rd person rather than fps.
plus the first game wasn’t that great either.

I think that this’ll be one of the games I pick up when the price falls after a few months.
Other than graphics, I haven’t heard of any reason why it’s better than an FPS like COD4, Resistance, Killzone, etc. I’m also looking at Homefront for the atmosphere of it sounds really good, or Bulletstorm, which just looks like pure fun, which doesn’t leave much room for Crysis 2.
I’m more into third person games normally, as they generally seem to have a better story.
Except Bioshock. Bioshock’s story rocked.

I think this game needs a demo. There are a lot of games coming out in the FPS genre over the next few months (Homefront, Operation Flashpoint, new BLops DLC and if you are on PS3 you have KillZone 3). For me a Demo is required to properly get my attention and my cash..

Yeah no demo, no buy.

Buying it on release demo or no demo
Even if the online dies fast the offline going to shine
Still don’t understand why the PS3 never got a demo guess crytek think with the 360 focus on shooters it best to try and get the name out.
