´Crysis´ not coming to Wii



On their most recent release list mailed to journalists, Electronic Arts Germany listed the upcoming ´Crysis Maximum Edition´ as a Wii exclusive, prompting some bewilderment in the community. This is an error on part of the company. I have just spoken to a representative and they were not even aware of the mistake.

The official press page of Electronic Arts Deutschland lists the title as a Windows game. Just for reference, here is the release list and the entry in question.

Hi Falafelkid,

I was wondering what's your opnion about Conduit's visuals?

M. Ferreira said...

Had to expect this - The folks at Crytek would rather pretend that the Wii doesn't exist when designing their products.

pero_detlic said...

haha dear mister f.

they don't have to pretend, they KNOW wii's graphical capabilities are 6-7 years old, at best.

crytek dudes are graphic freaks and they do the graet work. they are not running for some quick buck on wii, you have to respect that.

i just don't get what is taking so long for factor 5 to show up... like they never developed for the same system (gamecube)

Falafelkid said...

Wow, there are new and strong applicants for the position of village idiot. Come, come all!

@Pero
Hi mate,
hows you?
Factor5?
Hmmm I suppose Eggebrecht and his team are probably busy laughing their asses off at The Conduit team and their so called graphical achievements!

;-)

pero_detlic said...

come on falafel...

the "regular" wii developers are the ones who should put more effort in wii, not crytek! it's just... how things are!

@ials, yes the conduit's visuals are truly joke. I still can't believe what hype they created

M. Ferreira said...

Falafelkid: He's new? O.o I could have sworn he hung around with Mr. Bip, back in the day.

The competition regarding the post of this blog's village idiot is stronger than ever. For the more able-minded people seem to be full of praise for the game. Ah well, it's always so hard to choose...

pero_detlic said...

mister f and falafel, act childish as you want, deep inside you know i'm teling the truth ;)

i'm realy sorry for the wiiremote being wasted for years now.. yes, there are few great games, but too many crapware for quick buck

the developer laziness is all i'm bitchin aroudnd

if wii can play gc games, than it can run rouge squadron and alike! but we haven't seen anything like that, have we? the conduit joke- original prime is laughing at it.

do you really believe wii and users who payed for the damn thing and games are deserving this?

well, at least, the future looks a little brighter with spyborgs, re darside chronicles and monster hunter... al capcom games... well, we have one developer, 99 to go.

Falafelkid said...

Hey, people. I've got a great idea! Let's all bash what quite obviously is really impressive eye candy and pretend it's shite. Then we pretend that some regular game, preferably something kiddie, looks far better and is, in fact, the best looking game on the console. We throw in some tech talk we don't understand ourselves since we don't really know anything about games. But we take it to the max by pretending that the others, many of them real industry insiders and professionals, are acting childish. Great plan, huh? Damn, it's been done already, you say? Ah, well...

yeah, the counduit is sooo awesome! it has colored walls and like.. light and movements are so great! who caresa about crysis?? and crytek?? what do they know, they pretend the wii doesn't exist.. and what abou... i can't do this :))

let's face it, wii is great FPS platform with no FPS games. (1 great, 1 decent game, but should have waaaay more by now)

it's cold fact that some people won't accept and must look forward for semi-product like this :)

@blog author
"...since we don't really know anything about games...."

That was quite mean actually Mister Falafelkidie. And since he is once again resorting to personal insults this blogs author has just been degraded from "Falfel Man" to "Falfel kidie". He shall be called Falfalkidie until he learns how to treat long time readers with respect.

I have been playing games for over 20 years now. After all these years, I dare pretend that I'm entitled to an opnion since having spent countless of hours and buckets of money on gaming. Not only do I strongly question the validness of this blogs authors interpretation regarding the visual quality of the Conduit, I also strongly doubt that he has ever played/completed one-tenth as many games as I have since my early days to put his views above ours. And I also strongly doubt that the blog author had ties to a major 3rd party publisher from back in the day during his childhood years which put him in the lucky position to get inside on the gaming industry let alone games for free on a regular basis!

I even remember the blog author admiting at some point that he was basically never into Nintendo before the NGC days and that he has a "PC" background instead which further puts his credibilty on the line as far as judging anything Nintendo related is concerned. Remember:
"You got to know your history to know your future"



@Pero

Hi mate:),
Thank you for your great contributions. I'm with you 100%.
Since you mentioned the brilliant Prime1- these comparisons are pretty much useless as I strongly doubt that the blogs author has ever bothered playing past the tutorial space station level to reach tallon overworld where the game really sets off to even know what Prime looks like.

Yet, the blog author takes pleasure in accusing avid old skool gamers like us, who dare voice appropriate concerns about what unquestionably looks quite subpar and generic -despite what some of the press and the wii lobby- fanboy- hype- academy has let you believe- of ignorance and lack of knowlege.

We have demonstrated numerous times that we are "positvely negative". We are not against Wii per se. We give praise where praise is due. We want good games for it. But we're not too selfabsorbed to point out the issues. Wii gamers certainly dererve better than Conduit. Why must such a crappy looking game like The Conduit be regarded as the last hope and premier Wii fps? I mean look at it ffs! I mean how low can Wii gamers go? It obviously looks like crap next to something like Half Life 2, Resistance, Perfect Dark, Prime 1 or Halo. Wii gamers expectations should be way higher. Thing is, Pero and I actually make up our own minds about The Conduit instead of blindly buying into NEOGAF hype, stupid unfulfilled tech jargon and lame marketing lines like this blogs author does. I for one HAVE actually sat down and played the whole Prime trilogy(not to mention the nes metroids) from start to end and thus am able to tell you that even some of the more average looking parts of the trilogy absolutely put The Conduits laughable crappy graphics to shame artistcally AND technically. Conduit is certainly nothing special technically.

And concerning Spyborgs, I insist on my opnion that the screens look absolutely amazing and way better than the 200+ awful shots that HV has provided us with thus far. And it most certainly has nothing to do with it being "cartoony" or "regular" as he seems to argue....

Anyway, I'm done for today
Peace Pero

Oh, please. Get rid of that retarded Freak Show in your comment section, Falafel. oO

pero_detlic said...

well said ials. i was all time reader of this blog since wii was revolution, have much recpect for falafelkid, have visiting this blog almost daily so i wouldn't miss any new update

but now i'm disapointed in how falafelkid is not willing to hear out old nintendo fans without starting the whole "village idiot" thing. he'll probably just start to ignore me also like he did with you long ago. sounds childish to me

i just can't believe the hype and blindness around the conduit and wii in general. i mean... they brag with online multiplayer and great fps controls... well, it's 2009 for god's sake!!! this should be standard by now!!

yeah, hv released millions of screenshots and trailers, i saw 95% of them and the game is soooo damn incredibly ugly, both in tehnic and art.

but i'm not talkinig about the conduit alone, it's just perfect example how LOW wii players fell (not by our choise)

yes, nintendo makes great profit and all... well, i don't care about that. all i care is for new fun and memorable moments of pure fun in visual, audio and gameplay experience. every element is equaly important to me and wii is just not delivering. even in gameplay and controls- we must buy wiimotion+ now. more than 2 years later we get true motion control and of course, must pay again for it!!

but in the end, it is not wii's fault, it is developers, and it's a well known FACT! even nintendo is becoming more and more lazy

...but, ials, you already know all this stuff... so i don't know why am i writing this since noone here cares about others opinion :)

Falafelkid said...

Wow, it looks like trolls have feelings, too ;) But that's all you guys are, trolls. And there were no insults, I was just stating plain and obvious fact. What you people are saying is as incompetent as anything and you know it. It's just flamebaiting and trolling and you guys must be so pissed off that noone takes the bait here.

Saying that ´Spyborgs´ looks like a 360 game and ´The Conduit´ looks shite: trolling. Saying that the Wii's graphics are 7 years old: trolling. Getting your come-uppance by being immortalized as the village idiots who know nothing about games or the industry: priceless.

You may have forgotten who I am and I don't care if you did, but I have been an industry insider for ten years now. So you can't really impress me by saying you get the occassional game for free. You should see my flat, seriously. And you also may have forgotten my track record as far as this blog is concerned. What have you ever done?

Falafelkid said...

Oh, and hi, M. Ferreira.

http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m121/saosin832/91497315se0-1.jpgGood one, mate ;) You're so right.

pero_detlic said...

"you guys must be so pissed off that noone takes the bait here"

yes, your village is sooo crowded, mayor :)

"Saying that the Wii's graphics are 7 years old: trolling"

i'm sorry, my mistake. gamecube was released in 2001... basically gc=1.1 x wii.... it's been 8 years

"You may have forgotten who I am and I don't care if you did, but I have been an industry insider for ten years now"

so what? that means rest of us don't have the right on opinion as users of the wii? soooo you are insider... aha... do you have some special wii and games that others dont? or some special tv?
the conduit and other games must look beautiful and play beautiful in insider world. and there must be less mini games and more fps. and more AAA titles, no shovelware

damn, i wish i was an insider

Falafelkid said...

I am sure you wish that. Because if you were you might actually have played the games you are criticizing.

Anonymous said...

Pero,
It's all attitude.
People have different opinions.
Small minded people aren't open to opinions outside of theirs.
And it's important how you express said opinions. Yeah the wii sucks in many ways. But so does the PS3!

Aside from the pussy who was the 1st poster.....(this person, like many on the internet is a "hater". This is just an asshole who needs to cut others down to make himself feel better)

.....much like IALS used to do, you used to come here and be a negative dick.

You've gotten better somewhat.
But....

Instead of opinions, you offer proclamations.
Like a fascist. It's my way and no other way.

Yeah I don't like McDonald's but i dont go to a Burger King web-board and act like child when Im my snarky comments aren't embraced.

You would offer nothing but what you saw as fact.
Instead of saying "I think" you would say something like "wii is shit"
Or "Conduit is overhyped."
"Wii has to have the best graphics and if not it sucks"
"Wii has too many bad games that Im not forced to play"

People love the wii. Sorry buddy.
You maybe don't, but a lot of people do.
Have some respect.
Your world doesnt understand that the wii is #1 because it's an excellent and fun next gen gaming platform.


You accuse falafel of not having respect?
Im a long time visitor and although these are not direct quotes from you my opinion of you is as such.

People like you come along and shit on this free wii news board written by someone who obviously loves the wii and nintendo....

IALS is totally different now.
He's a contributor.
I used to hate him. Now he's 10x more constructive than he used to be.

So of course Falafel is gonna get pissed. He works hard. You come along and piss on his site.
He's a contributor.
What have you offered?
NOTHING.
This is one of the 1st times I've seen Falafel FEED THE TROLL so quickly.
Yeah he was quick to insult.
That's cause he cares.
That's a good thing.


Add to the discussion or leave.
He puts these posts up for free.

So have some respect and grow up.
These aren't the Kotaku or IGN boards.

We are the Nintendo loving set.
We love Nintendo. We love it's pro's and we hate it's cons.

Then maybe next time FALAFEL calls you out, your newly suddenly discovered "feelings" wont be so hurt.

It's pretty simple folks.
Treat people the way you want to be treated and THEN everything is generally good.

Taking the side of, and white knighting for the previous village idiot, a simple man who punctuated every single post with "WII FAILS!" doesn't help your case... especially when arguing with a couple of people who know people in this industry... and not realizing that we're just pointing and laughing at you. :)

If you spoke REAL logic, then I'd gladly listen. But, by your logic, a PS2 is obviously as strong as a PS1 since there wasn't an exponential gain in power between the two generations. If that's not idiocy, then I don't know WHAT is. ;)

"Wow, it looks like trolls have feelings, too ;) But that's all you guys are, trolls."

If the blog author takes pleasure in labeling us as trolls for pointing out the joke that is The Conduit, then I can't help but notice that this blogs author must be into deep somewhere mentally(and perhaps physically too?) where the sun don't shine in High Voltage's Eric Nofsinger (if you know what I mean.)


"And there were no insults, I was just stating plain and obvious fact. What you people are saying is as incompetent as anything and you know it."

"Saying that ´Spyborgs´ looks like a 360 game and ´The Conduit´ looks shite: trolling."

Saying Spyborgs looks "regular" and "kiddy" and Conduit offers "really impressive eye candy": somewhere located where the sun don't shine. Truth be told, Spyborgs looks like a breath of the freshest air compared to the horrible, lame, blocky environments and laughable uninspired, amatheurish character design that The Conduit offers.

If there was ever an award for most uninspired alien design ever in a game, there could only be one winner.

"Saying that the Wii's graphics are 7 years old: trolling."

Saying that the Wii's graphics are 7 years old: proven fact.

"Getting your come-uppance by being immortalized as the village idiots who know nothing about games or the industry: priceless."

The chances that we don't know anything about games or the industry in general as the blog author indicates, are just as big as the blog authors chances of eventually escaping the place where the sun don't shine for once in his life:
Practically ZERO


"You may have forgotten who I am and I don't care if you did, but I have been an industry insider for ten years now."

Umm,give me a sec...I think I do remember this blog's author. Wasn't he the guy who kept on misleading people with his delusional and outrageous Wii 3D projection theories that turned out to be completely unfounded and obviously went beyond the scope of whats possible? Yeah, I think remember this guy.


"So you can't really impress me by saying you get the occassional game for free. You should see my flat, seriously."


The blog author's flat full of games that he has never even touched to begin with? and that makes him an expert? just as interviewing people like Miyamoto automatically transforms this blog's author into a godlike Miyamoto2 super-developer? Sounds a lot like one of those wannabe intellectuals to me, who install big book shelves in their homes, chock full of books they never read, just so they can brag about it and feel hip, witty and intellectual, when in reality, they are barely interested or motivated enough to sit down and flip through some of the pages of their oh so awe-inspiring library.


"And you also may have forgotten my track record as far as this blog is concerned. What have you ever done?"

At least I know Nintendo and their games and consoles not just since the N-Cube days like this blog's author, as he once admitted himself.

Peace 2 Pero

It's really quite simple: saying that the Wii's hardware is seven or eight years old is just plain ignorance or obvious trolling. Either way, you are not exhibiting any opinion but are either grossly incompetent or simply trying to incite others. Stop pretending you are a reasonable bunch. And stop pretending that I or others here are Wii fanboys. It would be nice if we could criticize Nintendo and the Wii where criticism is due, in the online arena and with regard to third party support. And we will, regardless of what you idiots do. Would you like me to finally publish who pays your bills?

pero_detlic said...

"the guy who kept on misleading people with his delusional and outrageous Wii 3D projection theories"

great point. but I never "trolled" that... i mean, it was obvious bullshit but it was interesting to hear somones OPINION! btw, even so, this blog was far more interesting back then... "crysis not comming to wii, it was mistake"... that's very interesting. makes me think why do i waste my time here.

"saying that the Wii's hardware is seven or eight years old is just plain ignorance or obvious trolling"

you sound like politician blinding the masses...

"especially when arguing with a couple of people who know people in this industry... and not realizing that we're just pointing and laughing at you"

what makes you think i'm not laughing at you? i gave up reasonable talk with blinded people long ago

"If you spoke REAL logic, then I'd gladly listen. But, by your logic, a PS2 is obviously as strong as a PS1 since there wasn't an exponential gain in power between the two generations"

my mistake, really this time for writing gc=1.1wii.. it's the other way around

so let me this put simple

ps2=10 x ps1
ps3=10 x ps2
gc=10 x n64
and so on
wii=1.1 x gc

"It would be nice if we could criticize Nintendo and the Wii where criticism is due, in the online arena and with regard to third party support."

that is exactly what IALS and I are talking about! but we are talkin about that for months and months now and it's just too funny to see that some of you are actually lookin forward for condushit

i gave you some averages of all review scores- fact... your and ferreiras answer for that was basiclly "but it's reviewers opinion, they suck"

wii games average sucks big time, wii has the lowest average game rankings compared to this generation and the last two

shity games = shity system

power is not everything (ps2), system is measured by it's game library and wii fails here big time

so much potential, people saw that, people bought wii, nintendo made money, so nintendo and developers are trying to sell us quick baked crap... so, wii sucks

peace ials ;)
