I look at those latest games that way:
By the time I've upgraded -(or willing to do so)- my hardware those demanding games will be in the bargain bins.
T'll then I'll enjoy FarCry.
I can wait.

Well the gameplay isn't very unique, so you're just paying for better graphics, not advancements in gaming itself.

I played Crysis Demo about 2 hours and I can finally talk about good and bad points:

Well, you're right BP, it's really similar to FarCry so nothing new about gameplay (even vehicles are pratically the same), but seems they increased game speed and that's a good point. It remembers me the fast Quake 3 Engine.

The game is really easy (the demo of course), with that Hi-Tech suit, really Cool of course, you move and act like a God, you can slash about 15 soldiers in a minute...you can be invisible, jump on buildings and run faster than a Jeep (FarCry was HARDER!)...moreover enemies aren't so smart as I expected, AI could be better IMO.

I really like how you can interact with objects (throw them away or destroy them all >) and it's nice to see prints on the sand and trees that fall down under your bullets

About graphics...well...it's incredible and really well done, but we all know that a game can't have only a good engine.
Let's hope for a good story

OMG a Delta force feature

I am glad it handles nicely even on slower computers. It has to if they want to selll it a lot.

let's see how the story will go and lets see how Farcry 2 will do (also destructable stuff & trees).

So Far cry was super hard while Crysis will be super easy for 5 year olds? Well actually far cry only hgad a couple of levels that were hard.. but with the others the most annoying part was that if you want to pass them easilly you had to move fast & zoom through the levels quickly and there was actually no time for exploring (exploring was too dangerous). luckilly there is a devmode, but still it's not the same. i mean look at stalker. even without cheats you can explore, yet it can be chalenging enough to keep you on your toes while you are doing that. you never know when a hoard of mutatns will attack...

I said that Far Cry seems harder than Crysis, not that it is the hardest game I have ever played.

If I'm not wrong the game will be released near the 16th of this month, but guys pay attention, you don't need Vista or DirectX10 to run it with high quality, some mad official programmers have hidden "Very high detail levels" under XP, normally you can enable them only under Vista...but there's a way to apply them under XP .
A friend of mine did this (with a better machine obviously)...graphically speaking it's another game...really :w00t:

Well the developer doesn't know squat about game balance. Far Cry's difficulty turned it into crap and if Crysis is really this easy it's going to be crap too.
