Crysis review

 Today's review is about Crysis; The game that has everything and nothing at the same time

Introduction:
The whole game runs in a tropical island where the North Koreans discovered something and are trying to keep the americans away from it. You play with a man named Nomad who is part of a squad in the US military. The squad is lead by a man named Prophet. The squad went to the island for a locate and extract mission for some american spies who were held by the koreans.

The Gameplay:
The gameplay in crysis is not that good, the first half of the game is really fun when you are discovering the island and killing koreans :D right after the aliens appear the game gets pretty boring. The game occurs in the future when a suite was created called Nano suite which is worn by special and well trained people. Your squad has these nifty suits. The suit provides amazing features which include active features such as maximum armor, invisibility, maximum strength and maximum speed and they include passive features such as an air tank(for breathing underwater) which refills when you are exposed to air, a crosshair,  a GPS, protection against very hot environments and very cold enviroments and many more features

The graphics:
Crysis is a game that has it all; textures, physics, shaders AMAZING
it is one of the most demanding games ever produced, at the time when the 8800s were the top of the line we said that there is no possible configuration that could max this game until the 9800GX2 came which certainly can max the game, When the game has everything set to high it is hard to tell the difference between the game and reality. unfortunately if you're going to play with a low end card, you won't except a little of this :S

Recommended config:
1.5GB Ram
2.0 Ghz core2duo processor or more
Nvidia Geforce 8600GTX or more(recommended) or 6600 GS(minimum)

Please comment with your opinion about the game and any questions
