The game is lame lol its like an expansion pack to the first crysis. I was able to beat the game in like 5hrs.. the gameplay was very similar but it was basically what happened on the opposite side of the island during the first crysis so it wasnt really that fun to me anyways. So have any of you tried crysis warhead?

[coastie65]

Nope. I got Assassin's Creed for my PS3 and wish I had gotten the PC version. Don't get me wrong, that thing really looks good on the 42" HDTV through the HDMI connection, but I think it plays better ( at least for me) on the PC. I am currently muddling through Uncharted: Drakes Fortune on the PS3. I have seen that game but seeing as how I only messed with the DEMO of Crysis, I haven't really given it much thought. I'm not really an FPS type anyway. coastie

[lilxkid24]

i need to ty assassin creed as well ive seen the vids of it looks pretty good but one game im going to get for sure is gta iv for pc when its out in like November.

[coastie65]

GTA IV huh? How come that doesn't surprise me. :^0 coastie

No i haven't played it yet but I plan to get it. I m just waiting for the Far Cry 2 release , so that i have two FPSs together. I watched a couple of trailers of Far Cry2 and a developer diary and i was impressed by the work done. Lets hope far cry 2 beats far cry in every aspect.

Yeah especially the way that you get forced into the same ending no matter what you do. I'm really looking forward to Fallout 3 and Dead Space. The aspect of a Roll Playing FPS looks especially interesting in Fallout 3, and Dead Space looks amazing.



To answer you question, Lilx, I haven't played it but when I get a good enough rig to play Crysis I'm going to get it too.

[piyushsingh]

Dead Space also looks good. I dont have any idea about Fallout 3.

btw - far cry2 climbed up to #1 spot on gametrailers.com :D

Cool

okay you were right , the game is much smaller than crysis. A few new things added - I loved the grenade launcher weapon , there were new protector aliens shielding others.
I was happy to see that the ammo is lifted automatically in this one unlike crysis in which everytime you had to press the F key to take ammo. A thing similar and good in both games was the last fight with tonnes of flying big aliens. The gauss rifle was just too good in the end battles.

I haven't even tried the first game. I'm afraid that my video card would provide minimal excitement.

Nope. I tried the DEMO of Crysis, and worked my way around to the Camp and ran out of ammo, so got whacked. That was all I wanted.

I Haven't (At the moment I couldn't if I wanted to), but I do know it's under fire because it uses SecuROM. :|


Also is the same with FarCry2 :(

Out of curiosity how does Crysis do (Like what setting did you have it at for it to be playable) on an 8600 GT?
For the fun of it I tried the Crysis Demo on a ATI Radeon Xpress 200; at the lowest setting and resolution I probley averaged around 7 FPS. :)

That is the chipset that is on this thing. When I first got it, every game I tried was crashing and I was ready to throw it out the door. I bought a 7600 GS and didn't have any problems after that. When it went south I got the 8600GT. I played the demo with everything cranked up, BUT with the AA turned off. I don't know what the FPS was, but it did well. No temp problems either. coastie

I played it at medium settings at 1280X1024 on the 8600GT . Was getting around 40 fps at this. Anything lower than 30 for this game, you cant shoot the quick aliens.

[lilxkid24]

i have an 8600gt play on a 1680x 1050 and idk how much fps i get i just get lil lags here and there. I have it on medium

[coastie65]

OOPS. I failed to mention that I played at 1024x768. coastie

Did you use any AA or AF?

[piyushsingh]

earlier i was using 2xAA but later turned it OFF to get better frames. Its better to sacrifice AA to get better resolution imo. :)

That actually sound's pretty good for your setup. Sound's like it get's the basics done.
