Holy Crysis

Head over to www.gametrailers.com and check out the videos for Crysis, a new first person shooter (FPS) based on Crytek’s next generation graphics engine, CryEngine2. All I have to say is WOW.

I’ve filled out most of it and I have to photocopy something; I’ll be sending it out in the next 2 days. I don’t know but if you ask me, asking for the same information 3 times in 2 different mediums seems pretty inefficient. I guess this is why consultants have jobs.
