words and definitions change all the time, slang ect, it happens. Incase you didn't know, but im sure you do since your a "programmer", "crytek" make all this niffy crossplatform at the same time crap or at least there the first ones to make such a big stunt out of it, which doesn't surprize me that now is when people try to challenge people on the word port.
i clearly stated what i meant about the word port, its been used for a long time, ive followed the game, everyone else has to, your the FIRST person thats ever brought this up, and it just so happens to be right when crytek releases crysis 2...no thats not a church bell ringing.
im saying yes it is a valid way to say the word, since yes thats how people have been saying it for years. Your talking about technology that was created, changing a definition, no it just adds to it. People have been using the word port for years, and ive already stated what that meaning is. Thats how it was used. and new tech doesn't change that, everyone still sees the same shit, you admitted it yourself. whats changed? nothing and thats why people are still using the word and will continue to, and your not going to change that, crysis 2...is...a...port.

its the elitist crap thats lame, i call it a port, someone says no its not a port, then challenges the definition, while admitting nothing has changed about the game, its straight retarded. whats the point in saying its not a port, when everything about the game screams port, it just makes sense, to call it a port, but i have to admit its just as retarded to talk about it for this long

right and instead of porting it, they created a niffty little program that ports it in realtime, and per your very own definition there's "very little differences" between the platforms, thats why crysis 2 sucks, because it was ported, thats why all the levels are small, thats why the beta asked you to "press start" thats why it only has 3 graphics settings, thats why crysis 1 looks better than crysis 2, thats why it only uses DX9 instead of DX11...because consoles only have DX9, thats why most tree's don't snap like in crysis 1, because its a port. they designed it around the bottom end limitations of the consoles and ported it in realtime to pc and the higher spec console, and now we have people trying to fight over the word port i wonder why

not even really sure what you're trying to say here. I just so happen to bring it up when I saw this thread, which just so happened to be posted right when crytek releases crysis 2. my only interaction with Crysis 2 has been been downloading the demo on my PS3 and trying to play it but not being able to connect to the servers so I just quit played the demo for the Unreal Mortal Kombat on my PS3.

Yeah, you hear about the Unreal 3 engine all the time too.
Porting != Multiplatform

Basically; give a fuck, Crysis 2 is amazing on 360. Although I never played Crysis 1, it's better than the other FPS's around - eg COD, MOH etc (in terms of singleplayer)
