"At its highest quality settings, Crysis is able to push modern hardware so hard that almost nothing short of an overclocked dual-graphics system can run the game at its maximum settings without turning into a slideshow.
Crysis has a pair of built-in benchmarks - here we will show you how we run the GPU benchmark to test graphics cards, and give you the disappointing outlook of how well modern cards run the game."
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?"
LMFAO!
Are they dumb or something? Where are the top notch cards GF8800GTX and GF8800Ultra? No wonder they get such results if they don't test it on high end but on mid end cards.
an 8800gtx and 4gb ram on a quad core and on xp 64 bit all on high i can get a solid 40fps at 1280x1024 and 4aa. well pleased runs smooth enough.
I really like this game but I can't afford to upgrade my rig. PC gaming in general is more expensive than consoles. Owners tend to upgrade every year. Crysis is designed to run smoothly based on the standard pc pheriperals on year 2010 :)
I purchased Crysis not long ago and you know what, pretty awesome game. I like it. The graphics are pretty darn good too. But, the think is, they are not as impressive as the tech specs!!!
This game can certainly be done on a console, just needs some tweaking.
I have a nice system, quadcore,
SLI 8800GTS 640ms
and so on and the game really does play like crap under vista.
All you gamers here know that vista is not for gaming!
