EA beweert Halo te kunnen weerstaan met Crysis 2. Overeenkomsten zijn er in elk geval zeker. Je character zit in een dikke laag armor, moet de mensheid van aliens redden en beschikt daarnaast over futuristische wapens, die kleine vergelijkingen naar de hedendaagse wapens trekken. EA verklaarde:
- “We were trying to craft a Halo-killer, you know a product that would squarely go after what Bungie built with our partners at Crytek. So the Crysis 2 product is spectacular, very high-end, and is going to be a multi-year franchise.”
Daarnaast vertelde EA dat Bungie geen problemen wordt in hun ogen:
- “When you look at Crytek, DICE, Epic, the LA team building MoH, and then Respawn, you know we got a pretty damn killer team. There’s not a lot of opening positions left on that roster and so that was definitely something that played into how we’ve looked at opportunities out there. But, we’re going for it and I‘ve gotten to know the Bungie guys over the years and they’re a terrific bunch of people, but we’re very pleased and confident with what we got and the franchises in our portfolio.”
We zijn benieuwd hoe goed Crysis 2 echt gaat worden en of het zich kan meten met de fameuze Halo franchise.
