The team is currently working on a console game, and it appears that the game is being built from the ground up for PS3. "It's a complete departure from Crysis and Far Cry, it's not a first-person shooter," he explained. The game, which is also bound for Xbox 360, won't feature any of the cross-platform issues that have been plaguing sloppier releases. "For that, we're optimising technology, but for another reason, the future in general, there is a dedicated PS3 team."
Crytek is working on additional technologies, specifically for Sony's platform. "The PS3 room is separate because we have some secret technologies being developed there which are not related to CryEngine 2." Obviously, this comes as exciting news -- one just has to take one look at Crysis to see the incredible grasp Crytek has on bleeding edge technology. We can't wait to see what they're cooking up for the PS3.

All devs must bow to awesome power of the CBE. A scalable, power hungry, brilliant design. Kudos to Sony for investing in this power plant of a PlayStaion.

let see! Another edge for PS3 it simply shows that there is something about this advanced technology which is obviously given "EXTRA" attention since the programmer itself see the "EX-FACTOR" what PS3 are capable of... A new engine for programming development for PS3 ONLY, special team dedicated to PS3! that's sweet!!!

Ok... so... first of all... crysis IS NOT PHOTO REALISTIC... the videos of game play you watch are conducted on gigantic machines which cost more than anything most of us would get... unless you are a graphics dev (like me) and have machines that just sit and render stuff all day ... the game will never look like what you have seen... expect a little better than bio-shock but... dont expect too much
