Crysis

[cooliofoolio]

Anyone play dis shit? It looks amazing but it wouldnt surprise me if this was just another first person shooter. I bought it but my computer was near fast enough to play. Though I went to the official site and did the system test to see if it could handle the game and it passed. but. once i bought the game i got a couple seconds into it and it was all laggy and shit. Now I'm stuck with a 60 dollar game that I can't return because no one takes pc games. POOP!

average story + amazing graphics = crysis

The story is actually pretty nice, and the gameplay is great.

I wanna play. it's just sitting in my room.

See, that's the thing with Crysis.

Though it is a good game, it's not something that makes it worthwhile to upgrade your PC.
If you can't run it, you're not missing out on much.

You'll have to trade it with a friend or something :/ or keep it until you've got a better PC.

First half-hour was great, but after that I think Crytek lost sight of what they had created, in much the same way as BioShock.

The first level (Island.cry) is the only one worth playing, IMO. There's some cool stuff later with zero-G environments but it's nothing special really.

its a good game i had to run it at medium settings and even then it was jerky at times

Graphics are amazing, the gameplay and storyline seemed average to me though, nothing new.
Kill Koreans till aliens come, then kill aliens.

Name me 10 games with original stories.

Anyway, this is more or less Far Cry 2.0, but yes the best graphics out there. The demo was enough for me.

All have either original plots or take an existing idea and present it in a new way (*).

Yeah I didn't get to 10, I reckon I could if I cared enough and did some research. This is just off the top of my sleep-starved head.

Timeshift? Are you serious?

Anyway, my point is that there are very few original stories out there and y'all knoez it.
