However, it was mentioned earlier this month by Cevat Yerli, Crytek boss himself, that there are just some things that can't be sacrificed, like AI and gameplay dynamic so it's worrisome to ponder on which part of the game will have to be cut down for the transition.

Crytek has recently talked about modding with its proprietary Crysis modding which may allow users to tinker with the game itself.

 ATI & Crytek - The future of PC gaming Hollywod style
Far beyond the usual blow-away-the-monster visuals, machinima offers photo-realistic cinematic computing where scenes, sets, and characters can be pre-visualized and rendered in real time, and where the mood and perspective can be rapidly changed.
Think of it as a “living storyboard” with the ability to pause the frame, move the camera, or zoom in on the action in any direction.
Compression of normal maps using ATI 3Dc and “object instancing” reduces the amount of processing needed for displaying multiple similar objects in a scene, such as rocks and trees.

 Crytek weighs in on Shader Model 3.0 - The Tech Report - Page 1
Yerli said that Crytek dedicated a pair of programmers to implementing the Shader Model 3.0 code path in Far Cry, and he said the entire retrofit took three to four weeks to complete.
With Shader Model 3.0, Crytek was able to consolidate its per-pixel lighting work so that up to four lights can be rendered in a single pass.
Crytek's revamped pixel shaders use branching and looping in order to calculate the effects of multiple lights in a single pass, but the instruction lengths of those shaders don't approach the 96-instruction limits of SM 2.0 pixel shaders.

 Go Nintendo » Blog Archive » Crytek talks Wii- What are you waiting for?
Crytek’s CEO and President Cevat Yerli took some time to talk to Game Informer, in which he discussed the Wii.
GI: Crytek is known to have made stunningly beautiful games, and while you can sort of experience them on lesser hardware, if you have the quad-SLI setup, and three gigs of RAM and a super fast processor it’s going to look incredible.
I think it’s ironic how Crytek, the Gods of Gaming Graphics are more willing to give Wii’s capabilities a chance than the likes of Tetsuya Nomura (FF13), who is pushing for a balance between hardware and shareholders these days.

 EA to Acquire Crytek? (No) - Shacknews
Various online sources tracking back to German publication Die Welt, which has been on target with many of its game-related reports recently, state that publisher Electronic Arts is looking to acquire Far Cry and Crysis developer Crytek.
"EA is not in negotiation for the acquisition of Crytek." Given the direct response, it is likely safe to assume that nothing is in the works, at least for now.
Crytek's Cevat Yerli is asked about the player's nanosuit, available weapons, environmental interaction, AI, motion blur, and tool release plans.

Crytek's co-founder Faruk Yerli has confirmed that his company has discussed an acquisition deal with EA, but Yerli added that Crytek might go public instead.
Crytek's most significant asset, CryEngine 2, a promising next-gen development engine, would be another big score for EA, fitting nicely alongside Criterion's Renderware.

Of course, Crytek could also be planning a console spinoff, similar to what has been done with the Far Cry franchise, or for that matter, an entirely new title altogether.
Whatever the case, if Crytek is only now hunting for programmers, don't expect a PS3 game from the studio for at least another year or two.

Unless Crytek is just trying to make pc die hards happy and spewing bs.
Anyway if Crytek need that kind of power to run a game they can keep it chances are about 40% of the power they need is probably due to deep seeded inefficiencies in the engine, algorithms or a serious number of unnecessary polygons
