Crysis [can you handle it?]

Game Discussion · 2011-08-25

Quote:Crysis is a new first person shooter being developed by Crytek, the makers of the award-winning Far Cry. The game is to be released (hopefully) in Q3, 2007 and will be published under EA Games.Players take the role of Jake Dunn, a United States Delta Force Soldier sent into a mysterious island in the South China Sea to investigate an unidentified flying object that has crash in the area.Crysis is highly anticipated, as it will be one of the first Direct X 10 games. Some of the technology it will utilize include dynamic day/night cycle, fully interactive environments, sunrays and diffuse transmission, real time soft shadows, soft particles, interactive/destructible environments, volumetric clouds, and advanced shader technology.This is the game that will shift the tide again and show PC superiority over consoles but the question is...can your system handle it?Some general screenshots.Recommended RequirementsCPU: Dual-core CPU (Athlon X2/Pentium D)Graphics: Nvidia 7600 or ATI X1600 Pro (SM 3.0) or DX10 equivalentRAM: 1.5GB+HDD: 6GBInternet: 512k+ (128k+ upstream)Optical Drive: DVDSoftware: DX9.0c with Windows XPI barely meet the recommended requirements except the ram (1gb only) so I definitely wouldn't be able to play this comfortably.Quote:Originally Posted by kbryc08Recommended RequirementsCPU: Dual-core CPU (Athlon X2/Pentium D)Graphics: Nvidia 7600 or ATI X1600 Pro (SM 3.0) or DX10 equivalentRAM: 1.5GB+HDD: 6GBInternet: 512k+ (128k+ upstream)Optical Drive: DVDSoftware: DX9.0c with Windows XPI barely meet the recommended requirements except the ram (1gb only) so I definitely wouldn't be able to play this comfortably.Those are not official by the way so they could go higher or lower by games release. Also worth mentioning that the developers may have "secret code" that they will unlock with a patch later on after the game is released for future hardware. What you see could only be the beginning...graphically.Happy ill be able to run it, and probably on high. i truly dont think its going to require geforce 9 series to run on high and the 8800 i have will run it smoothly. Hell, wouldnt doubt some of the 7 series running on high.Quote:Originally Posted by cyress8Happy ill be able to run it, and probably on high. i truly dont think its going to require geforce 9 series to run on high and the 8800 i have will run it smoothly.
