EA and Crytek are aware that gamers have some extra time on their hands during the holiday season. That’s why (starting the December 19) the publisher and developer combo are rolling out Crysis Wars for free. The offer is valid through December 28, at which point EA will pull the plug on the free fun.
If you didn’t know, Crysis Wars is the multiplayer component of Crysis Warhead. It features three different modes that shooter fans should be familiar with and over 21 maps for players to kill each other in. To keep with the feeling of the season, Crytek will be unveiling the Holiday Map Pack this week and it will be available through this offer.
To get in on the action, simply register at the official Crysis website and then download the game. Apparently, you can do this preemptively as the key is generated to only work on the dates above.

And the best looking games of the year by a long way.
Crysis ftw.
I don't feel like Crysis Warhead, although awesome, is such a huge leap above all that stuff like people make it out to be..
I mean I run it pretty well too, not like i've got a $6000 PC good, but pretty damn good. It's very, very, pretty, and the expansivness of the terrain is incredible. I guess all my blathering is getting at the fact that the game feels like a tech demo sometimes and the graphics while amazing..are a little overhyped. We're in an age of graphical splendor and Crysis isn't as far ahead of everyone else as people make it out to be.
OK seriously though I don't think Jesus would be wasting him time playing that pile or DRM infestation, he would probably playing non DRM games like umm..... Sins of a Solar Empire, no, ummmm shit nevermind..
