Product Description
Earth, 2019. A team of US scientists makes a frightening discovery on an island in the South China Sea. All contact with the team is lost when the North Korean Government quickly seals off the area. The United States responds by dispatching an elite team of Delta Force Operators to recon the situation. As tension rises between the two nations, a massive alien ship reveals itself in the middle of the island. The ship generates an immense force sphere that freezes a vast portion of the island and drastically alters the global weather system. Now the US and North Korea must join forces to battle the alien menace. With hope rapidly fading, you must fight epic battles through tropical jungle, frozen landscapes, and finally into the heart of the alien ship itself for the ultimate Zero G showdown. Unique in-game vehicle from US pre-sell campaign ESRB Rated RP for Rating Pending

4 out of 5 stars Crysis   September 7, 2008
Its a great game. There were a few places I didn't like but overall a good shooter. I pre-ordered Warhead in fact.



5 out of 5 stars Awesome looking and playing game!   August 11, 2008

I built a high powered gaming computer just so I could play this game. I am happy to say it was worth the investment. The graphics are great and the gameplay is a lot of fun! The story is OK considering it ends in a cliff-hanger but it does make you want to see what happens in the next chapter.

If you don't have a good gaming computer, you will have to lower a lot of the game settings. This isn't to say it would be bad but you will be missing out on the eye candy. Even on my gaming rig I had some slow down in areas where there were a lot of enemies and explosions.

Overall, this is a great game. I will be playing it through many times.



5 out of 5 stars Amazing, but far from perfect.   May 5, 2008
If you want a great looking game and you have great PC gear, this is the game for you. Replayable: Yes. Fun: Yes. Graphics: The best! Game engine in general: Fantastic. Story: Not even close to original. Consistency: None.

Basically, the game engine itself is great; it's like FarCry multiplied by 100. The story, though, is very old hat and very predictable. The greatest problem for me was the sudden change in the whole feel of the game: once you enter the mountain, it's essentially a different game altogether-- disapointingly so if you liked sneeking around in the bushes stealthfully dispatching enemies on a beautiful tropical island. the last part of the game is a run and gun shooter with timed abjectives. (It's as if the first part is a sequel to FarCry and the last part is deleted missions from Quake 4.) Did I mention that the game spawns bad guys mid level, sometimes all around you? Very irratating if you're carefully clearing an area and suddenly guys spawn behind.

In short, I loved the game and replay it constantly. However, I only replay the first part (up to the mountain) and I would never say that it's flawless.



5 out of 5 stars Crysis makes me wanna Cry   April 3, 2008
There aren't many games that leave me in awe. Crysis is one of those games. I recently built my first PC, and I used this game as the benchmark for the caliber of components I would need. I simply had to enjoy this game in all its glory. This game (and the components) was worth every penny. It is truly a new benchmark in the FPS genre. The detailed environments are nothing short of amazing. The gameplay is totally engrossing and exciting. I'm running it using a quad core Q6600, eVGA 8800GT, Gigabyte ep35c mobo, 4gb of corsair DDR2, WD 500gb, Pioneer 20x DVD drive, and Corsair 650w PSU. Thanks to these components I've got all "high" settings across the board. Wow. What an experience. I thought Gears of War and Bioshock had great graphics (which they still do). This game has that level of realism that most games only dream of. See the other reviews for more specifics about the plot, but I can't really think of any gripes. The collector's edition contains a nice artwork booklet and an audio disc, along with a behind the scenes disc that takes you deeper into world of Crysis. Some may not need the extras, but they're nice to have.
