14 DAY TRIAL // Halo 3 gets ready to surrender its "Most Wanted FPS of the Year" award to Crysis, as Crytek's title has just gone gold. We've offered you the demo this weekend for download right HERE, but I bet you have already finished it by now. We've shown you the list of specs, be they minimum or recommended but now the joke's off. The next piece of news you'll be hearing from us, with Crysis on top of it, will probably be either one related to a store's offer on Crytek's game or God forbid, a leak of the full game online.
November 16 is the date when we'll be getting your copy of the title and I'm superstitious enough to claim that we'll see a patch of the game less than a week after the official launch. It's how things work nowadays... The gamers have become experts now and they are able to spot more bugs and glitches than the average beta tester, so that's why so many issues are revealed immediately after a game's launch.
Let me remind you that Crysis is a title based in the sci-fi future, and you're in control of Jake Dunn, a US operative who uses a futuristic piece of equipment called the "Nano Muscle Suit". This surely sounds familiar, especially for those who have played Halo 3 or Gears of War. I bet you can guess who your main foes will be... It's those aliens again, never giving our planet a moment's peace. Crysis uses Microsoft's new DirectX 10 to render graphics, so we're in for some cool eye candy treat, although Halloween will be long gone.
The implementation of such advanced technology means that we'll have to own a decent computer in order to play the game, although Crytek stated at some point that the game will work on 4-year-old PC-s.
