Those who had a bit of trouble running Crysis will be happy to know that Crysis Warhead will run noticeably better (well, provided your hardware was capable of running Crysis in the first place), though it still requires a bit of raw power to run. The game looks a little bit better, but most of the work has gone into making CryEngine 2.0 more efficient. For some odd reason, Crytek Budapest saw it fit to rename the various detail settings – rather than high or low, they're now gamer and mainstream, which can be confusing. Games On test rig (E8400, 3GB Ram, Radeon 4870, Vista 32-bit, DX10) ran Crysis on high settings (at 1680x1050) with occasional slowdown, but only took exception to Crysis Warhead in one particular later section of the game. It seems to handle the wider open areas much better than the original game, which is great given some of the amazing landscapes you'll come across through your travels.
