ok. so i just played this new game at my friend michael’s house: ‘crysis.’ above is a screenshot from gamespot.com. below is Jason Ocampo’s review from the site :

It was hard not to be completely impressed when the first images and videos of Crysis appeared about 18 months ago. Scenes of lush jungles and towering alien war machines looked light-years beyond what seemed possible. Of course, the two questions that revolved around Crysis since its announcement were whether it would deliver on those visuals and whether it would deliver a game worthy of those fancy graphics.
