Crysis 2 To Release This Holiday In 3D
A good chunk of gamers and the gaming press are rolling their eyes at the concept of 3D gaming, but that won't stop Crytek from bringing their new title into the third dimension. At Electronic Arts' press conference today, the company announced that Crysis 2 will release in 3D this holiday for PS3, 360, and PC.
Cevat Yerli, president and CEO of Crytek, said “At Crytek, we always strive to raise the technology bar. As the 3D revolution sweeps movies and television, we are excited to bring Crysis 2 to 3D, making it the first big action game to be available in true stereoscopic 3D. The 3D experience represents a quantum leap in interactive entertainment. With all of the same story and action seen in the 2D version of the game, the 3D version adds another dimension of intensity and immersion to the action.”
It's looking like Crysis 2 and Killzone 3 will be the first high-profile first-person shooters to embrace 3D. We'll have to wait until this holiday season to see what kind of impact 3D technology will have on the genre.
