Crysis single-player demo hits this Friday, your new computer does not photo

A single-player demo for Crytek's upcoming PC killer, Crysis, will finally be available. According to Voodoo Extreme, the demo will also come fully-loaded with the "CryEngine 2 Sandbox 2" game editor. This gives modders and map makers a one-month head start; maybe we'll see some Halo 3 maps at launch!

Our own Hamza Aziz had a chance to play it at a recent Electronic Arts event. Before that, David Haughton went hands-on with it at Leipzig, and beating all of them to the punch, Fronz played it back at CES way early in the year. They liked it ... will you?

There's still time to upgrade your PCs -- Crysis hits shelves this November.

Walmart has a 8 minute long walkthrough video of the game playing in some of their stores. In between the Larry the Cable Guy underwear and the knockoff Hightops that are made of pleather.

Don't you hate it when you have dreams about playing games you want and then you wake up? I do that with this game... and Mario Galaxy... and Assassins Creed... Oh hell, I'm so mentally unhealthy... probably. haha

Honestly, there are so many other games coming out that are higher on my list, I totally forgot about this. I think CoD4 will be all the FPS I can handle this winter.

I will watch the HD vids of this and have as much fun as playing the game. Or wait for FarCry 2 and have a better game ;)

I just bought a new graphics card and discovered my comp's power supply wasn't up to scratch. Hopefully the new one will arrive by Friday.

If I see any Halo 3 maps for Crysis I'll uninstall and then run over the DVD with my car. To put mod anything Halo into Crysis is an insult to PC gaming. Besides... isn't forage mode enough? I mean, it's soooooooooo good, right?

<3 Halo...?

I'll download it, see if I can run it, then uninstall it. Unless on the off chance I can run it, and it is also fun. I feel a FarCry-esque letdown coming on. Graphics are great, gameplay is boring as hell.

Why are all the posts about Crysis related to how good your rig is....or wondering if you will have to play on low, medium or high settings. Should the first questions now be:

Will the gameplay be good?
Will the story hold up?

Its always hardware hardware hardware!
