what's with all these DSOG 're-created in cryengine' posts, I mean cryengine is fine and dandy but does it really matter? It's just like one of the bloggers has access to cryengine and keeps doing this stuff

metro last light needs to come to the ps4 because id buy it first day

[Rivitur]

The point is Cryengine is free to use so artist looking for jobs tend to recreate game scenes to showcase their talents.
Off topic: Lol at the other guys response about PS4 (not that it might not happen but it just isn't a real response to you) and the ads for other stories under the summary are pissing me off.

[minimur12]

so it's not just me?!?

OH praise the lords!

i thought I had an advirus (even with adblocker on) lol

Nothing special here. It looks more current gen than next gen.

[MadLad]

The game looked so much better originally . . .

[Utalkin2me]

How about representing actual last light gameplay.

[beatled]

the real game looks far better

[GentlemenRUs]

What's the point?

A CG artist trying to buff up his portfolio in his spare time? Some of you guys act like this is an affront to your moral sensibilities seeing game environments re-imagined in different game engines.

You are absolutely right, but I would point out the title of the article (even the articles existence itself) gives the impression of "Hey, look at Cryengine! It can make every game look better!".

That's not the case, but its an article on some dude's portfolio, not really news worthy. Especially so since its hardly that amazing to warrant an article to begin with.

@aliengmr: Title states the obvious things. A Metro: Last Light scene recreated in CRYENGINE. As simple as that. The fact that you translate it to something completely different like "Hey, look at Cryengine! It can make every game look better!" is your false personal misinterpretation.

Oh, and it deserves not one but more articles, especially since this is made by a single person.

Seriously now, what next? Complaining about mods?

Hmm, unless they're going to re-release these games with the CryEngine, what's the point?

If the purpose of these "demoes" is to show off the tech possible using the CryEngine, why not craft your own vision/game that shows off the engine? Why recreate another game that's already available at retail?

[Pandamobile]

It was made by a single dude in his spare time. This isn't some weird re-release of Metro: Last Light lol

[barb_wire]

Ok, which makes my point ever more apt - why bother? This dude looking for a job or something?

Pretty sure if we had the SDK of the CryEngine we could do the same but ultimately, what's the point?

[Pandamobile]

Do you know nothing?

[Wingsfan24]

barb_wire "This dude looking for a job or something?"

Are you for real? That's how you get a job, you build portfolios of your work. You think someone will hire you just because you say you CAN do something? No. They want to see what you CAN do.

Lets simplify this.

Have you heard of the term 'showreel' or 'demoreel'?

[calvincrack]

Does this one crash all the time?

[pandehz]

The actual game looks significantly better.
