If Crysis flops it would be a new record on the flopometer.

I lost control of my bowels while watching the new video. Skeptomania

crysis can't flop for the simple reason that the only reason everyone is excited about it is the visuals, and they're already amazing - technology is crytek's strongsuit, the company can't fail

if it plays bad - if it's a rubbishy game - doesn't matter at all.. sure, some people want it for the uh, you know, the gameplay... but, like gears of war, it'd have been overlooked by most people if it weren't so beautiful, and probably found its way onto a your favourite underrated games threads a few years later

and some people would read it, and take a look at screenshots and think, it sounds neat - but it just doesn't look good enough

that's the one and only reason why crysis can't fail - it looks plenty good enough

Um no they can't, if you think making games with good graphics is so easy, then why don't you make a game with better graphics than Crysis. It is very hard to make a game look as good as crysis AND have it run at a decent fps.ElectricNZ

Thats not what he was saying, he was just saying he gets impressed by story and gameplay, but graphic only games don't impress him. I for one think Crysis looks like it has alot of gameplay, and the graphics make a big part of that, along with the destructibele buildings. 

I don't think the game will flop well atleast sales wise.    I will be buying it when it releases but I have to admit, I'm not really impressed especially with all the hype surrounding this game because the only I hear about is the graphics and physics granted I haven't keeping up with the information being released for this game or any other game.   I just simply wait until it releases.

And the way that I look at it, the graphics and physics etc was bound to happen sooner or later.   So bring on the gameplay and fun factor!.

That's so BS and you know it.ElectricNZ

But you said anyone can do it, so if you had a team of 100 x you, you could make it better?ElectricNZ

So you possess the skills of being a lead designer, art direction, modeling, skinning, coding, photography, concept drawing etc.ElectricNZ

Crysis is Farcry 2 basicly and Farcry was a pretty good FPS game. I'm sure Crysis will be the same. I still like games like STALKER & Bioshock better, more survival-horror, better atmosphere, more openended, more interesting settings and story ect . . . 

I dunno why everyone talks about Crysis.

The game is gonna be the same as Farcry with some Ice and aliens.

I would rather like to play Stalker cause this game tries to be different than all the other Halo-AlienVSHuman shooter.

But since it doesnt run on my system im f***ed

all that stuff i said

exactly the same for me - i stopped playing farcry a little after the treehouses bit (never bothered finishing it), just hated all the stupid mutants - and crysis has been announced as being split into three stages - the jungle with humans, an icy jungle with (???) a mixture of humans and aliens, and an alien environment

so it's pretty much running by the exact same formula as far cry did - at least aliens are cooler (and, strangely, more believable) than mutants - but surely crytek should've learned that it's humans everyone wants to kill, not monsters

but with the simple wyswyg level editor i just learned today (thanks to another thread) is coming with the game, i definitely see no reason to not get crysis now

False.

Bunch of people here that don't know what they're talking about. Farcry was rated AAA by Gamespot, IGN, Gamespy, PC gamer and a whole bunch of other reviewers for a reason. If you haven't played Farcy beyond just the demo, then shut you yapper! I wasn't impressed by the demo but the game blew me away. If you have played it all the way through and you didn't like it then you just suck.

Farcry > HL2

ah HA! i too shall make an invalid point by only quoting half of what someone said 

take THAT! 

i said a line or two down that some people wanted it for gameplay purposes - everything was hyperbole anyway, chillax

Sure, Far Cry was pretty good. But take away the awesome graphics and open-ended outdoor environments and it would have been just average, if even that. The game especially went downhill after those mutants got out and they phased out the mercs. It just wasn't the same after that... So you can see where I'm going with this. I really hope Crysis doesn't turn out to be the same. When you take away the graphics and environments, you're left with sub-par gameplay.monco59

What you say there doesn't really make any sense. The great graphics and open ended environements were the whole point of FarCry. You take that away and essentially its not the same game.

However, i do agree about what you said about the mutants. They sucked big time! Killing Mercs was much more fun.

Crysis is so hyped that it's impossible to flop sales wise.. So far I've seen nothing that impresses me.BounceDK

That's because you're the man. You're on another level. 

It's impossible for it to flop imo....Staryoshi87

anyone who has skills in 3d moddeling and texturing could make graphics on par with crysisArtosa
