This runs really well on my X1800XT. Medium details looks amazing, I can't wait to see it on an 8800GT.

It's Far Cry with prettier graphics and sometimes you can jump higher. Seriously.

The lighting effects through the shrubery are nice and all, but I cant help but feel like I've played it before.

Shush -- who needs to actually have any engaging gameplay when it looks so darn nice?

Farcry, before they introduced mutants, had some awesome gameplay.

Hiding in the jungle, springing traps, playing mind games. All very very cool.

Is this worth my download? I don't want a 2 minute video stress test.

It is if you liked far cry.

I thought the game itself was awesome, and the graphics were weak. but thats because of my card. i really do like the game though, pretty cool. only frustrating thing is how long it takes to kill people with bullets sometimes

This was pretty awesome.

Once you get the suit buttons down, you turn into a super kill god.

I feel like super strength is slightly underpowered. But it was seriously hilarious to punch through that wall and pound three koreans to death while they were all still screaming.

Just perfect, as soon as I spill water on my computer, a Crysis demo comes out. :rant:

With uTorrent you can force a recheck, and any corrupt pieces will be redownloaded. If the file checks out but is still corrupt, that means the other idiots are downloading the same corrupt torrent, and even bigger idiots are SEEDING it.

And I'm not going to bother trying Crysis. My computer strains under UT3 with everything on low (although I'm able to crank up the resolution) and THAT runs better than TF2 with ANY settings (everything on low/off = 36-38fps... high/on = 32-37fps). I need a new CPU, mine is being a bottleneck...

It is annoying. Now i have a useless installer and a new one off filefront half an hour away.

Lulz. It runs on my computer just fine, but every texture is missing and everything else is pure black. Also it seems to have condensed everything into the top left quarter of the screen. Guess I'm getting it for the 360! :v:
DO NOT WANT.

I ran the demo on Medium settings on my laptop and it does it fine/smooth. I'm not sure what to think of this game so far. The gameplay is alright, nothing really special there. Standard affair. Maybe I need to play it through again, like using only cloak and fists. Or something like that because just shooting away doesn't hold my interest for long.

Something tells me for a game like this, I need to have everything on high. I guess that is Crysis's strong suit. Otherwise, the gameplay isn't really interesting and I don't really care for the characters (cliche military guys barking at each other). I do like shooting down trees and destroying buildings, but I keep running out of ammo and my laptop specs aren't good enough to appreciate the physics.

I will say this, picking up small animals and throwing them at things is fun. Prehaps Crysis's greatest feature?

PS, did anyone's framerate drop to the negatives when the game showed that frozen ship at the end?

Yeah, I don't understand negative FPS here. Unless your framerate dropped to less than 1, and then it would be a decimal, not a negative number.
I had a blog. It sucked.

ahhh killing a korean with a turtle thrown with strength rules...
