Crysis was basicly a new introduction to a new engine. They definatly deseve credit for the image quality they managed to pull out.

The only thing I hate about this game is that when it was released only a small ammount of people could actually run it on full potential (highest settings)
Even now it still requires a good config rig to run it.

I think the hype was just about right. It was a great game.

I'm guilty of being pissed off I can't run it flawlessly, though.

I personally am not big of crysis simply because it takes 17 million bullets just to take down a enemy. Even though I pick and choose my shots and hit my mark 80% of the time...I still run out of ammo.

Also, I just think that the engine is terrible because it doesnt really look THAT much better than some other games, but takes loads more resources to make it run smooth. It does look really good though.

Crysis is a GAMER'S game that will Stomp all over those Store bought PC's. Even the ones that they say are Gaming computers.

Not everyone has a Rig that can handle this game so instead of saying that they made a mistake about their computer purchase they DIS the game.

Its the same as some guy DISing a beautiful blond that turned him down for a date. Its just pride.

Go with the flow.. Its an awesome title. The story line is fun and the graphic is just great Eye candy.
