Crysis Review

Final Verdict

88%
Crysis was our most anticipated PC game of 2007 and the final product does keep some of its promise in terms of its graphics and its multiplayer mode. However its high system requirements will also keep many players from fully enjoying it and a great first half of the single player campaign gets bogged down with its more mundane and ultimately unsatisfying second half. Crytek's second game is still far better than most PC games out there but it seems like they didn't quite know how to finish it off; since Crytek has already said that Crysis will be the first game in a trilogy perhaps they will be able to learn some lessons and make fighting aliens as challenging as fighting human foes.

Shattered Horizon Review
Shattered Horizon Review
FutureMark, well known for their popular 3DMark benchmarks, is venturing into new territory with Shattered Horizon. This multiplayer shooter is perhaps best known for its system requirements -- the game supports DX10 only -- but there's more underneath the surface of this game than fancy visuals. Is it worth its $20 price tag though? Read Vandy's take inside!
