Pegged for a multi-platform release later this year, 2 is shaping up nicer on than on thanks to the extra processing power.

Crytek's studio boss Carl Jones tells CVG by way of PSM3 magazine that on PS3 is outperforming its 360 counterpart. While the games are identical in terms of content, the extra horsepower in PS3 is making it run better.

"We haven't found it more difficult to develop for PS3...At the moment, we're getting slightly more performance from PS3 compared to 360."

Crysis 2 will be available for PS3, Xbox 360, and this winter.
