My computer weeps just looking at the game.

There is a lot of confusion about Crysis on the 360. some people are asaying it is coming to 360 and others are saying it isn't. Its confusing.

All i know is that I want DX10 and everytime a new Crysis vid comes out my pants get wet.

a whole bunch of tomfoolery

looking very good

my computer lags just looking at the vids for that game (ye i;m joking) but holy shit its awesome image the online *Starts drooling* so a good DX10 pc will cost 2000 without an OS damn you Microsoft and the 500 dollars ultimate vista damn you to hell

I've given up on having a Crysis capable PC already. Mine could barely run Oblivion for gods sakes!

Who do they think I am, Professor Moneybags!?

actually, my computer has lagged playing a video. Stupid me thought it would be awesome to download one of the gimoungous resolution videos a while back and my 2.5 year old eMachines cheap piece of shit didn't like it one bit.

I am honestly surprised that no one has said anything about this being an FPS.

It is weird that this is the FPS I am looking forward to the most. I have become uninterested in most. Bioshock looks awesome too. But this is from EA. EA isn't supposed to make new IP that is cool, they are just supposed to rehash the same game over and over again. This game and Spore is why i still have great faith in EA. They can rehash all their games and make ridiculous profit on it so they can put it into other experimental projects in hopes of them becoming successful. SquareEnix doesn't do that, they just put the Final Fantasy name on every piece of shit game they make now.

end rant.

My gpu would probably commit suicide just loading the main menu.

dude, don't buy an Alienware. They charge way too much for a computer that isn't that much better than other alternative. Obviously building your own PC is the cheapest option but i would look into other companies first. iBuyPower usually isn't too bad but im not really sure anymore. Just don't get Alienware.

Oh crap, I knew it. The basic gameplay is like Far Cry. God, I hated that game.

And yes, it plays similarly to FarCry as it is made by the same developers and its using the new CryTek 2 engine.

My only question is whether or not those barrels are explosive ... they better be.

Great graphics, but thats the hook. Gameplay is was keeps players there. It looks great. And from this video, it looks as if this is a clanboy's dream game with super speed and extreme bunny-hopping 3.0.

I bit disappointed since I liked FarCry's more realistic gameplay.

However, the way you can modify your gun on the fly like that is awsome. I'd love to see other games incorperate that.

i didnt even read this article or the comments, i just want to say i hate u ron workman!

I know Fronz. I sent out an email about it. I sat on this vid for 2 weeks. Im lazy. We have had an HD of it and I wasted it for us all.

Holy shit, you can see the motion blur effect in play when he turns around quickly a few times. I just wet my pants

Pretty graphics but not really impressed by too much. I guess I'm too jaded by PC gaming. I find more "realistic" graphics to be less immersive. I think my threshold for suspension of disbelief goes down and I find myself getting pushed out of the game world more often than not. Frankly, I find a more stylized approach to graphics to be much more immersive.

Eh. Not worth upgrading my PC for.

i had the 7600 for a week or 2 cus i switched from an agp 7800gs and the performance was about the same you can run any game at 1024x768 and high detail, 1280x1024 medium detail. though i am running into the same problem its your cpu limiting your gaming experience i run the 805d(2.66ghz), 1900xt(stock) and a gig of ddr2-667 and i can play rainbow six vegas and it look awesome except the shadows lick balls and i didnt think games were all about the shadows but when i saw my bro rig runnin the game with his shiny new core2duo,7900gto and 1 gig of my memory it was the shadows that made such a difference in realism

@zaqu

There is a problem though. My 7600 GS overclocked has 512 MB of on-board memory but it's supposedly slow so that might not help really. Still though, are you absolutely sure that you didn't notice much difference in performance?

@skruloos and Husky Hog

Isn't that a bitch? You think like me! Games are supposed to be escapism. For me when a game becomes too realistic it kind of draws me away from playing it because I go to games to get away from reality, not have it shoved in my face again.

I will get this game but it definitely isn't that good enough to warrant even so much as $30 good in my book. I'll wait until it's $20, which should be years since EA likes to charge people out that ass for their games and keep the prices up (Sims 2 in some locations staying at $40 even after 2 years, not including expansion packs).

" icarus says:
If it wasn't made by EA, I might give a crap. "
Well, then good because its not made by EA. They're publishing the game, but its made by the Crytek team.

What? It looks good on YOUTUBE?? Is that even possible??!?!?

What Icarus said.

I would have to completely disagree with Icarus on this one. the weird thing is that i used to hate EA with a passion, just about the same amount i hate SquareEnix now. But EA has been turning around slowly. Yes, they may rush a game from time to time, but they aren't going to put Crysis out before its ready. Yes, they are going to put a deadline on the game, but everybody has to do that except for Nintendo. Halo had a deadline and they came close to not making it and it turned out to be an extremely fun game.

Alot of people forget that this game has been delayed only because of Vista taking so long. They have had extra time on top of what they already had to polish the game. EA so what there publishing the game. Im sure Crytek won't be rushed as they are the ones who make the decisions as this is a massive title for EA and they don't want to p*ss off one of the few top notch developers they have.

On the topic of people saying the gameplay isn't there you can only laugh. Have you played it? I seriously doubt it so how can you tell what the gameplay is like by watching video of some one else playing? Watching some one else play a game is sh*t full stop but these Crysis video's still impress me.
Since when could you jump onto a roof of a building and punch through the top of it on another game? That bit in itself made me chuckle.
The game is like Farcry you can do things how you like which in itself seperates it from practically every other fps around. The AI will be no doubt the best every seen as the first farcry imo still has of of the best AI in a game and that was released years ago so Crysis will improve on that no doubt. Why am I even stating why the gameplay will be fun. If you have watched the aircraft carrier video then you will know. How you cannot find fighting a giant alien mech with visuals like Crysis I don't know as please state to me another game around which even comes close?

On the 360 side of things it might do but if it does it will be seriously toned down. The 360 struggles at times on Gears of war and they are small enviroments which simple AI and hardly any physics. Crysis? The complete opposite.

@Remz

I don't think that it would be very fair of you to call us dicks. You made mention of the gameplay which I agree is a perfect element for escapist fantasy, but we were mostly talking about the graphical quality of the game being too realistic.

I know this is stupid, but isn't anyone else noticing the low-res ground? Whatever happened to the notion of rendering blades of grass? As lush as the surroundings may be (though those plants start to look pretty 2D-ugly up clode) you're still playing on a flat floor.

@oldschoolvgamer
if your card has a fan your in luck, the difference in the 7600 series of cards is clock speed, so if you google a program called coolbits and do a bit of research on it you may be able to overclock it a decent amount a squueze some more performance out of it. and if all else just lower your in game resolution,i run most of my games at 1024x768 cus my computer loses those extra frames that make it smooth when i switch to 1280x1024
