First photo-realistic game?

Post by Sabre »

Dear god, if it's 90% of this, it will be awesome...

It's called Crysis and it runs on the Crytek engine. Brought to you by the same people that did FarCry...

Movie of said game

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

Far Cry was a pretty good game, and a very pretty one. the aiming was a little hard for me to get used to. a lot of people talked about how great the AI was but I thought the AI was a one trick pony: it would flank. now usually flanking is a good move and it makes things interesting outside. but inside buildings the AI wasn't any better than most other "top shelf" FPS games.

I had been following this game for a while but haven't really checked into it lately. Not quite photorealistic yet. but definitely the closest i've seen to date. damn cool

I won't be able to afford a PC to run this game until the WRX is paid off! :lol:
