CryENGINE 3 is a revolutionary change from our previous PC-only engines
Don't get your panties in a twist, the wording leads me to believe that it's for all platforms (besides the fact that consoles don't use directx 10)

Still, I think this means that we won't see another crytek game like crysis which blows everything out of the water for years to come in the graphics department.

Well that was quick
:-/
The Unreal Engine and the Havok engine have been out for almost three times longer then the Cry Engine 2, and these guys are going to make CE3? Wow...
No DX11?
Hopefully it'll be more efficient than CryEngine2

Hopefully making it on consoles aren't going to impact the pc performance. I always thought that Crysis should be a console port and not a pc port. I can see now, Crysis delayed on pc due to pirating. Yet you can still get it in on the 360 2 weeks before the actually release.

DX9/ DX10
It says DX9/DX10...that means it has to go out with PC too, right?

Consoles, I'm sure, don't utilize DX10.

EDIT: Oh wait nvm...I saw the last quoted line.

the key to DX11 IS to use DX10 after all... they may implement it later, depending on the time it takes to develop the engine i think... to early to really say anything for sure, they just announced it. just my 2ct.

CryEngine 2 also worked on the PS3, and possibly the 360.....

On another note, expect Warface to be announced soon. Kinda funny they announce CE3 right after they trademark a logo for the CE and the name "Warface"

i assume that means DX11.

well i hope, for their sake, that CE3 is simpler than CE2 in the sense that it works and wont just bog down the system.

I believe DX11 specs are out? It is much easier to develop using the final specs then try to implement addition features later.

It was made for consoles and then ported to PC, so obviously no DX11. The graphics will actually be worse than Cryengine 2, as there is no chance in hell Cryengine 2 would come remotely close to running above 5fps on a console.

CE2 was very efficient. crysis had so much going on that your poor little e4300 couldn't cope with it though...

Thats dumb. They should have named it cryengine 1.5. That is, unless the consoles just use the extremely low settings and it is in fact an improvement over 2 on higher settings.
Great. Time to upgrade.
Does it support ray-Tracing? and this is soo going to rape our GPU
