When it comes to over-previewed games, Crysis is probably pretty high on the list. Even so, IGN were invited to come down to EA Redwood Shores again to step in and play the first three levels from this highly anticipated shooter:
"This was the first time that we'd been allowed to watch the cutscenes during the game and found that they definitely added to the overall atmosphere. They keep the perspective in the view of the main character, much like those in Half-Life 2, except that they take control away from the player to set up specific cinematic shots that happen through the character's eyes. Crytek obviously didn't want players to miss any of the quick and exciting moments that happen when the team of nano-augmented soldiers come up against the island's other occupation force."
A Crysis VR mod is now available for download, allowing users to experience the first entry in the series in VR
No one cares. The whole can it run Crysis is old, dead and stupid. It's also irrelevant, considering only less than one percent of pc owners, own a high-end PC. Second, I believe Crysis wasn't even optimized properly.
Let's hope the modders can get the other Crysis games working in VR as they use the same Cryengine.
GF365: "There are some games with extraordinary visuals that impress us to this day. Here are old games with outstanding graphics."
I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.
Far Cry 2 was awesome. In addition to having demonstrably better physics and AI than later games in the series, it had a lot of design decisions that, criticized at the time, have since been praised in games like BOTW and Dark Souls.
It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good
Digital Foundry: "When Alex Battaglia got his hands on a Steam Deck, this was inevitable, right? So can the Steam Deck really run Crysis? And if so, what type of optimised settings produce the best performance? What's the best balance of features and battery life... and what about 60fps?"
Looking sweet I am dying to try the DX10 demo :D
Downloading the demo. can't wait for the game to come home. I will play and hopefully finish it before I start playing Mass Effect.
Well i must say i was very suprised just how well this runs!!!!! THey have done a great job optimising, especially at lower resolutions. Bear this thought in mind though............Don`t.. get.. greedy!!!.
