Crytek drops PC Exclusivity, Blames Piracy

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 05/01/2008 10:29 AM | source: | 0 comment(s)

Crytek was probably the last innovative dev team devoted solely to making PC users feel inadequate about their system specs. No longer.
In an interview with PC Play, Crytek president Cevat Yerli has said that thanks to both "huge piracy" and the small returns PC games bring in compared to console titles, the company will no longer be making games exclusively for the PC market.

They'll still make games for the PC, of course, just...not only for the PC.

I'm not disputing that piracy is a big issue but ... Crytek ... Maybe if your obscene system requirements had a little to do with it ? Granted though, they brought one of the most technologically impressive masterpieces to the gaming world. They at least have the balls to push the envelope.
