We got a long time to wait, I'm mostly interested in the story. I want to know what happens next!

multi-platform technology

They better do it first on PC and then port it over to consoles.

I agree or itll be sucky.

Usually stuff comes out on the consoles first and is then ported over, that's where most of the cock ups happen.
PC First, Consoles later.

Anyway, I hope this doesn't become an overused franchise. I want something new, Call of Pripyat was good because Clear Sky felt like the first game but with pretty graphics.

The game is utilizing the Cryengine 3,
