Crysis 3 – The 7 Wonders of Crysis 3 – Episode 1: Hell of a Town

Crysis 3
Electronic Arts has released the first episode of Crysis 3’s online video series. Contrary to other web-series, this one is created entirely via CryEngine 3 and showcases real-time in-game graphics. It looks cool, but then again we’d love to see something a bit better than a mix of FPS and cinematic free-roaming perspectives.

Crytek’s CEO believes that Crysis 3 PC will rival the graphical capabilities of next-gen consoles

Crytek’s CEO, Cevat Yerli, is back with a punch. Yerli has been constantly hyping the Crysis franchise, and PC gamers hated that guy for claiming that the first Crysis would be fully playable on max settings with a 8800GTX. Truth be told, Crysis was perfectly playable on an 8800GTX, provided you were running the game at a somehow low resolution and in DX9 mode.
