When Crytek released the original Crysis first-person shooter back in 2007, its CryEngine 2-powered game set the standards for high-quality graphics. So impressive were its visuals that no gaming rig at the time was able to run it at max settings. Many called the game "hardware future-proof." Fast forward to today and it is still one of the commonly benchmarked titles. With Crysis 2, Crytek is attempting to raise the visual bar once again and promises the "best graphics you've ever seen." Powered by the new CryEngine 3, Crysis 2 taps into the latest GeForce technologies such as SLI and 3D Vision. In regards to stereoscopic 3D, Crytek isn't merely satisfied with slapping "3D-supported" on the game's box. Rather, Crytek wants Crysis 2 to set the standard for 3D gaming and has implemented it from the outset.
With a next generation graphics engine, native 3D Vision support, and a revamped nanosuit which provides more tactical options, it's easy to see why PC gamers are excited about Crysis 2.
