Crysis 2has become Electronic Arts’ most popular release so far this year, beating out other major titles such asDragon Age 2andDead Space 2. According to the sales figures, the Xbox 360 was the most popular console too, thoroughly dominating the PS3 and PC.
The 360 accounts for 57% ofCrysis 2‘s sales, with the PS3 taking 29% and the PC raking in a miserable 14%. Maybe they weretoo busy torrenting itor something.
This news is notable for the fact thatCrysiswas always a major PC title and being able to run it was the hallmark of a powerful gaming computer. PC fans have been upset at the console inclusion, blaming it for “dumbing down” the game and not looking pretty enough without manual tweaking.
I wouldn’t expect EA to care much now, though, since the PC is apparently not where the money is. Can’t fault people for wanting their games to actuallysell, y’know?
