Crysis Requirements

After recently acquiring my copy of Crysis and playing through half the game, some of my friends came to see the awesomeness that is Crysis.

What a SWEET video game. The graphics are incredible, the AI of the bad guys is really good (scary at times), and the user interface is very intuitive and user-friendly.

So my buddies now want to get the game, but they need to check their system requirements on their PC.

Here's the official list:

PC Processor Type - 2.8GHz (Intel P4 or AMD Athlon 2800+ or faster)
PC Operating System - Windows XP (with SP2), Windows Vista
PC System Memory - 1GB RAM
PC Hard Drive Space - 12GB
PC Video - 256MB video card
PC Sound Card - DirectX 9.0-compatible sound card
PC Additional Requirements - Internet service required to access online features


If your PC meets the Crysis requirements, your performance will be fine. Much has been made about how hard this game is on PCs, but it really isn't that big a deal. Considering that some of EA Games affiliates are Intel, it's no wonder they're pushing people to buy better hardware.

This video game is the best First-Person Shooter I've ever played (and I've played almost all of them). I like the fact that the missions are wide open as far as how you go about completing them. I prefer the stealthy, sneaky, sniper tactics, but wide-open firepower works, too. And the fact that Crysis multiplayer is as awesome as the single-player campaign is definitely a plus!

You can get Crysis from Amazon:
