On Monday, developer Crytek announced it would no longer be developing Crysis (PC) patches for "a good reason" that it hoped to say more about "in the very, very near future."
Apparently, the "very, very near future" meant two days.
The official Crysis website has now been updated with a teaser image for Crysis Warhead (pictured above), presumed to be the next entry in the sci-fi shooting series. No other details, such as platforms or a release date, have been unveiled.
The original Crysis was said to be the first in a trilogy, with Crytek having since trademarked multiple related names, including Crysis Wars, Crysis Annihilation, World in Crysis and Crysis Warhead.
The developer recently commented that it would be moving away from PC-exclusive development due to piracy concerns. "Similar games [to Crysis] on consoles sell factors of 4-5 more," Crytek president Cevat Yerli explained. "I believe we won't have PC exclusives as we did with Crysis in future."
At present, Crytek is known to have at least one console title and a non-FPS game in the works, along with its nearly-completed efforts to bring the Crysis-powering CryENGINE 2 technology to consoles.

Nomad looks like every other generic FPS guy without his helmet, who would've guessed?

i would say so too.
but i would not compare Crytek to GSC, our ukranian friends did support STALKER much longer than I ever expected. and they did not officialy halt any patch-dev work on STALKER, only "delayed" it (although I expect an announcement by them when ClearSky comes out stating that SOC is now dead).
Crytek are seemingly as power/money hungry as EA and joined them in their quest for mediocre but shiny entertainment.
I say FARCRY2 !!! not maximum management decision
