IGN Preview: Crysis - "The time of Crysis is nearly upon us."

The new level starts with your arrival on the island and your early attempts to rendezvous with your squad mates. You've been sent there to help rescue some trapped archaeologists who have discovered something, well, let's just say something "weird." Thwarting your efforts to search the island and find the archaeologists is a sizeable portion of the North Korean Army who have claimed the island, presumably with nefarious intentions. This first level really shows off such a variety of amazing visual elements, from the tremendously realistic water in the bay, to the dense jungle foliage of the hills, to the towering mountains in the middle of the island. Smoke and fire effects abound during the more hectic firefights, while interesting depth of field effects are present nearly everywhere.

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.

TheColbertinator409d ago

Crysis blew my mind back then and still kinda does.

Let's hope the modders can get the other Crysis games working in VR as they use the same Cryengine.

Bioshock still looks fantastic, one of my all time favorites.

Yui_Suzumiya481d ago

Beyond: Two Souls on PS3 can compete with modern day graphics.

SonyStyled481d ago (Edited 481d ago )

Same as Killzone 2 and 3, uncharted 2 and 3, Infamous 2, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3

jasonismoney481d ago

I wish this was entirely true, but you might want to load up Killzone 2 and Resistance 3 again.

SonyStyled481d ago

@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

cthulhucultist480d ago

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

Fist4achin481d ago

I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.

SonyStyled481d ago

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

JEECE481d ago

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.

iNcRiMiNaTi481d ago

It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good

JEECE481d ago

In terms of art style it still holds up.

Can It Run Crysis? The Only Steam Deck Question That Matters

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?"
