Dam still no ps 3 version footage?
Crytek has released PS3 footage and IGN had a few vids of the MP running on the ps3.

I was told the ps3 demo is retail code instead of the 360 patched up alpha code
. And want to know how the game performs.I was told the ps3 demo is retail code instead of the 360 patched up alpha code
I thought the PS3 demo released last week......or was it this week?
I posted the vid where the crytek dev said the PS3 demo was the same build as retail, so soon you should be able to download and play it yourself.

I thought i remembered reading that the ps3 demo comes out today? Anybody at home available to see if true?
Yes the PS3 demo is supposed to release today, March 15.
I dont know when PSN gets stuff up though, judging from my last look at Neogaf it isn't available yet.
1UP Game Night says they will be livestreaming/playing an early single player level on Xbox 360 this afternoon here http://via.pulsene.ws/15nXz
They will also be taking audience questions.
Also just saw this on twitter

I hope, but most of times it's a bad sign
Absolutely. Most games optimised for PS3 these days use 'install-on-demand' and employ streaming from BD to HDD during gameplay/cutscenes to get rid of both load-times and installs altogether.
Also, the manuals I've seen for CryEngine 3 posted in another thread here suggest there is very little PS3 optimisation in other areas too, like a complete absence of vertex culling and stuff like that to help out the RSX ...
What new PS3 games use this streaming/install on demand/no install system?
Guess I'm out of the loop but I thought most PS3 games=install.
I know its technically irrelevant, but after the only few leaks about ps3 version from now (1024x720p, 4 GB of installation, total absence of a clear HD videos, your assumption above) continue to lean in the same directions... obviously will see something of more concrete later, but I will be more surprised to constate the opposite.
Yes, but this mammuth size install are become rare even in the most of third parties games by years... even the immense area of Brotherhood take 1 GB less in the HDD...

I always thought those installs were for the extra sound codecs ps 3 version of multiplat title have.
I think depends more of the slow speed of the bluray disc... in a sandbox game, the loading could become very long...
But those games often are highly linear with heavily predicatable player actions/navigation.
They use coverage buffer on consoles to cull which is done on CPU. Obviously this is not optimal for PC as it means IIRC that frambuffer or some buffer needs to be shuffled between VRAM and RAM so PC instead uses handplaced culling proxies.
