Crysis, Turok trailers reportedly too similar for comfort |
Listed in: PS3, Xbox 360, PC Gaming Tags: Crysis, Crytek, Disney, Sony, Turok
Ó
An entry to Voodoo Extreme's stories at IGN suggested that Crytek's Crysis "Countdown" trailer may have ripped off from Disney Interactive's Turok (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3) E3 2007 trailer which debuted earlier. The big news is that it definitely had similarities, especially in the introduction.
Unfortunately, the whole issue carved out a big battlefield for PC advocates and next-gen console fanboys, each one defending the game that would respectively release for their game platform of choice. It would have been an epic battle, too, if it weren't for the occasional Sony-Microsoft fit flaring up at the next-gen console side.
But common sense came a-knockin' at our noggins lately and pointed out one thing - a definite brow-raiser: the whole concept of "It was supposed to be simple, but..." is a worn-out cliche, anyways. If anyone ripped off the idea from anything at all, it would be the many action, horror, survival movies that came after the absolute first (which escapes our mental grasp), and this claim holds no solid ground.
But we all may agree to one thing: snack of NeoGAF Forums said, "They are different. In Turok something went wrong, but in Crysis something went terribly wrong. I don't understand how you can confuse the two." That said, this blogger rests his case.

@ Link01 - Obviously your a fanboy and yes not only those two "stupid good ass titles" as you said are single handlely taking ps3 down, but i guess your probably to arrogant to see other great titles from the Xbox 360 "cough cough" Forza which beat Gran Turismo in polls stating it is a better simulator. Not only that because of the precious PS3 we have to wait till next year for GTA 4 because of "problems".
I own both consoles and I love my PS3, but lets face facts here who's winning the race here PS3 or Xbox 360 (Lol not including the Wii which kicks ass)? And dont give that 1 year head start bullshiit the Playstation Brand is big enough to sell it's name quickly.

if forza was so great, why don't they hold international race tourneys? polls don't mean $h!t since most people who vote are people who are bored w/ their games so they find other means to get them by or to find inspiration to continue playing. btw, how about we do a sales chart comparison and see how they compare. there is a reason why GT has a bigger customer base.
race? rofl, if you don't consider the 1 year head start then you should consider the fact that the PS2 has sold more units over the past 2 years than the Xblowx 711 has since its birth...over 2 years ago. gee, no wonder there hasn't been a migration from PS2 to PS3. M$ had to drop the first XBlox because it failed miserably w/ its fat controller, lack of games, and BS commercials that it had to jump ship QUICK just to get ahead. once Sony decides to put the PS2 to sleep, all hell will break loose and M$ will be stuck designing the PS4's OS. ROFL...wait thats not a good idea, coz it's going to be continually hacked/patched/updated. WTF

And obviously the ps2 sold more because it was an older brand name when a new console hits the shelves people are skepticle on getting the console soo much for the n-gage which that crap sucked ,but besides the point Sony has a huge install base but it isnt showing up in sales

yes, cell phones. are u saying you devote all your free time online that you basically have no "real" life outside your living room? and yes, i would call them if they txt me while im BZ in a game. its called multitaskin and using the most of my whenever minutes.
3 year extension? rofl M$ has denied that their systems were F'N up since its initial release...and now that they're under some heat, they had to desperately extend them so they wouldn't be sued up the ass.
BTW, in a week my ass. try doing some research and see how long it takes people to get their refurbished Xblox 711. 1 week? prove it...put down your tracking number and lets verify. for the main part, there've been many scenarios where people recieved older systems, defective systems, or still haven't gotten their XBox 711 for months on end...let alone not being compensated for thier lost tym on XBL. sad.
and with your last statement. ROFL. nintendo was basically a household name in the 80s with the original NES. nintendo had the biggest install base w/ the SNES before the PS came to the scene. with that being the case, the n64 shoulda been at least 2x more popular after the SNES died off...but that wasn't the case. the PS outsold the n64, the saturn, AND the dreamcast *which was supposed to battle PS2*.
think about it, the XBlox 711 is selling just a bit better (2%-5%) than the original XBlox and the sales have slowed down. who won the "race" between the ps2, xblox, and gc again? the ps, the ps2, AND the PS3 have sold at the same pace due to limited library and coding issues, so take that into consideration. sure, the ps3 will not be 1st in this generation, but it won't finish last since the Wii is the guarantee victor...but knowing sony's history, i won't be surprised if they do to M$ what they did to $ega.

Why bother typing all that useless crap if people are just going to laugh at you? Come on, you put a dollar sign instead of an S in the name of every company (every company except Sony, who is the fanboy now???), you must've said ROFL like ten times, and you keep saying Xblox 711, whatever the f*ck that is supposed to mean. Do you expect anyone to take you seriously?
I'll use an acronym you seem to love to sum up what I think of your comments: ROFL
