Chris Remo of Shacknews gives his quick impressions after playing the first few hours of the highly anticipated PC shooter from Crytek.
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."
Same as Killzone 2 and 3, uncharted 2 and 3, Infamous 2, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3
I wish this was entirely true, but you might want to load up Killzone 2 and Resistance 3 again.
@jason I watched some gameplay videos of KZ2 and R3 on my full screen. They are on par or succeed graphically to the first person shooters mentioned in the article that also launched on the seventh generation of consoles. Try the same and see what you think
Killzone 3 was super impressive! I could not believe the graphics back then as I was regularly pausing the game to stand in awe looking at the surroundings! Resistance however did not impress me that much. Heavy rain is also another amazing graphically speaking game. It almost felt next gen
I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.
They did for their day. I recently played gears judgement with on the 360 and the draw distance was so blurry. The characters up close look great though
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?"
at last a game that lives up to the hype,the demo is class, an absalute first class game, can't wait for the full fersion.
Yep... the demo is great :)
i have just finished a build for a freiend with:
Q6600
8800GTS 640mb
2gb 800mhz OCZ
and it struggles to play this game at high seetongs at 1950x1080 no AA.
lucky MY computer is quicker but this is just a warning for anyone who has a pc hand can play HL2 'ok', you have no chance with this.
EDIY@ Antan, hello dude, since posting ive tried it at 1200x1000 (not sure on exact #) and it ran at high fine. also yeah that setup ive listed could be built for probably around £600 so yeah not to expensive and its capable of running CoD4 demo and UT3 beta all fully maxed out at the 1650x1080. see pc gaming doesnt have to cost the earth like many think.
on another not, i gotta say i didnt think 'that' much of crysis, on out and out gameplay UT3 takes it everytime!
dont want to offend anyone , but i was so hyped for this game but found it was almost exactly like farcry. actually a bit more boring because i cant really understand korean language.
believe me , it is farcry with a twist and with better graphics.
p.s. graphics wares off about 10 minutes of gameplay.
dont waste your money updating your pc , try it on your friends pc first. thats what i did and i am relieved that i did.
ALL HYPE , HYPE , HYPE.
Just downloading the demo now at around 944kb/sec which is good. Nearly at 90% done. Just hope it will run alright on my PC.
My PC Specs:
Intel Pent 4 processor 3.06GHz
1.5GB Ram
Geforce 7950GT OC 512mb DirectX9
160GB hard drive.
Would be good if I could buy a new PC but I can't.
