I'm not a gamer but have been hearing about a game called "Crysis" lately and was wondering what all the hub-bub about it was...then I saw this (http://maxygames.no.sapo.pt/Crysis.jpg)...wow...

The real picture looks like it was taken here in the islands.

Sure its pretty, but is it worth the thousands you need to spend for a rig that can render that in its fully glory? :D

[Cricket]

Aren't hardcore gamers willing to spend that kind of money to get those kind of visuals?

I know I wouldn't build a computer that costs as much as a good used car, but I'm sure there are many gamers out there who would ;).

Wow, that is impressive. I haven't gamed in years, but looking at those screenshots I'm almost tempted to build a new gamer system. :)

[Hi Ho]

My PC runs the demo at reasonable frame-rates on high settings. It is definetely the most visually stunning game produced thus far. It is simply amazing. What you don't see in the screen shots is the physics engine. If you throw a grenade into one of those shacks it can collapse with real-time physics. Here are a couple videos that show the physics in action:

Destroying Crysis (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEupUtXKOgU)

I am counting the days until the full game is released. When the next generation Nvidia cards are released I may have to upgrade so I can run the game on very high settings. :)

That is sure realistic, and I bet the photographer name is cricket...:D

I played the demo and was pretty amazed...even at low settings :eek: At high settings it was a purdy slideshow.

Aren't hardcore gamers willing to spend that kind of money to get those kind of visuals?... I guess I'm not a "hardcore" gamer then... or maybe I'm just a person with a budget, but no, it's too much to stay on top of things for me. Heck, I'm still running an ATI 800 AGP and don't have any problem with the visuals I get with FEAR, DooM, HL2, etc... Don't have anything newer than that, though. I'll wait some for Biosphere and Crysis to come down in price before I pick 'em up :)

Very good explosion, only big one. Water is best I have ever seen and shadow is almost perfect.

it is very very close! Darn... my PCs aren't up to the Crysis task.

If i happen to upgrade for the Crysis game, my financial and wallet will be in Crisis!! :eek:

Nowadays, technology and games move too fast. Every year, the games look even more realistic. :eek:

Oh man...thats sick but funny...shooting at those birds.

[Markoman01027]

I prefer Reality....:-) That is a game in itself!

[TwoRails]

I prefer Reality....:-) That is a game in itself!And there are sooooo many version of it, too!

[shadowpr]

And there are sooooo many version of it, too!


Only problem is I can't seem to find a guide book. Damn reality. LOL

[TwoRails]

Only problem is I can't seem to find a guide book. Damn reality. LOLI *hear* that when you do get if figured out... you're almost at the end of the journey.

[shadowpr]

I *hear* that when you do get if figured out... you're almost at the end of the journey.

Or like most games, you get thrown a curve ball and realize that you still have a ways to go.

Now where's that save point????

[TwoRails]

Save Point!! YA!!! Go back and do'er again... That'd be sweet :)

[shadowpr]

That would be perfect for those times where you just don't care, but yet don't want to suffer the consequences of your actions.

Or even better...who has the cheat codes????

[catacon]

In downloaded the Crysis demo and man is it cool. I wish I could play it at higher settings, maybe I will have to upgrade soon.

[kstatefan40]

My upgrade is a ways off - but damn, why can't it come sooner? That is SWEET.

[Jaggannath]

Incredible pics... this comp is still running with an mX440, and my laptop only has a 6800 in it
