  • RIP man. I just realized how much I want to start PC gaming. The only thing is the hardware requirements.

  • Are you going to review Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare? I tried to get through the campaign and found it boring as hell, I'd like another opinion.

  • Crysis 1 was perfect, this was good but more lke Crysis's little brother with a few bugs.

  • I found while playing Crysis 1 that i would occasionally find a rock or a tree with a really bad texture, or some ridiculous glitch like a couple of square feet of a riverbank being devoid of water, and these things would break my immersion. Also, there were a few areas (like when you first board the carrier and walk through the corridors with all the people in them) where my frame rate would drop slightly, but was just enough to be annoying. In Warhead, i have yet to notice any of these issues.

  • The grenade launcher may come off as superfluous, but using it with EMP rounds gives it purpose as it is extremely useful against aliens. Even with maximum strength + EMP grenades, the grenade launcher + EMP rounds is more useful, not only in quantity, but also in ability.

  • good review my friend crysis 2 kicks ass 2

  • Did you say it GAVE you 8800 gts trouble or DIDNT give it trouble?

    thanks!

  • Wow, so complaining you have to change your jump button to oh say... SPACEBAR, is a complaint?

    or were you just looking for small things to nitpick?

    I am downloading the game now. I'll let you know what I think.

    The Crysis 2 multiplayer demo is fun, and my 8800 GTS overclocked runs it well!

  • 2:08 hey baby harder lol

  • thx for the spoilers. You could simply just say that Crysis Warhead takes place during the same time as Crysis. You don't have to spoil the end in Crysis to review this game.

  • lol your voice slightly sped up voice is weird :P

  • This game's awesome, but expensive, ill let you in on a little secret, you can get it free at Tyreus {d0t} net !

  • 'moveh'

  • crysis warhead & crysis wars r same right?

  • @vgvgvg7412 No, Crysis Wars is a multiplayer "expansion pack" of a sort.

  • @mastershake2393 on pc games

  • @mastershake2393 i know what you mean. ive only seen it done on a ps3 though with linux installed . its like my dreamcast with dreamsnes its way faster than a snes but the decoding with games makes it slow down slower than a super nintendo. with a decent emulator though i think anything is possible. I think if they had a supreme emulator they could take full advantage of the gpu

  • actually there is performance diferences, it was one of the first things i noticed but i sitll have a pretty good computer but i cant max any of the crysis's entirely

  • i found crysis warhead a big waste of time, looked very cool in the trailer but not the game for me. i am a massive crysis fan though.

  • WHEN DID THE GAME COME OUT

  • very nicely done :D

  • wtf games had rightclick default to jump?

  • chrisis should be for the ps3 and mybe the xbox 360

  • Crysis 2 will be, but the ps3 and 360 couldn't handle Crysis, they wouldn't even be able to run it at medium.

  • @hobbit2245

    And without DX11..

  • @BackYardBeaVer

    It's spelled "crysis". And crysis 2 is coming to consoles, but with fairly low settings.

  • crysis 2 is on ps3 pc and 360

  • PLEASE TELL ME can it work on GeForce 9800gt1gb core 2 duo E7500 2,93 GHz

  • yes

  • u need 4gb ram ddr3 and a nvidia 780i motherboard and then it will work

  • this game rules... works well on my pc on medium settings so im happy

  • do you have a freakeshly pwerful pc or a normal one?

  • mainstream gaming pc

  • Great review, thanks a lot.

  • excellent review. very thorough.

  • Nice review.

  • i dont know but the game runs fine but in cinematics

  • i think the aliens can't see through the cloak because it is modded by psycho it says Sykes mod under the health and energy bar

  • this game fucking crashes at the second level everytime and my pc rig is excellent

  • then it is something wrong with your disc or installation.

  • well, one: you can't play a PC game on a xbox 360. and two: if you actually could play a PC game on a 360, you would only be able to play it on medium because the 360 uses a really complicated decoding process that lets it use weak graphics cards while letting the games look great, without lagging.

  • @mastershake2393 Bullsh't, the xbox360 has awesome graphics for instance compare arkham asylum for the 360 with that of the ps3 and the pc if they have it.

  • @TheLenny655 first of all, lol for commenting on something i posted more than a year ago. secondly, the 360 is dog-balls, graphically, to the PC. i shall give you an example: look @ the PC version of crysis 2 (demo's, of course) to the 360 version... do you see the difference? oh, and i must say that for owning a 360, you lose 3 internets.

  • @mastershake2393 next gen consoles are new Pc's are not so give consoles a break im getting an acer predator gaming pc and i can run this game on med settings no lag on my laptop so its not that hard to run this game

  • @kris10ish except consoles aren't "next gen". the only thing next gen about the current console line-up is the Kinect, because you can hack it onto the PC and do some pretty awesome stuff w/ it. i agree, it's not that hard to run crysis warhead ON A PC; moreover, i said that the consoles, if anything, would run it on med., so you saying that you can run it on your laptop is out of context.

  • @mastershake2393 neah i said that the 360 is newier than Pc/Mac there for its harder for them to code and the qauility will not be as good as pc but is stll great so in lets say 15 years to 5 years the xbox will run graphics in High

  • @kris10ish First off, you might be able to run it on mid settings with no AA at low resolution with no lag on that PoS, but there's no way you could run it in 1920x1080 on mid Second, to your 360 is newer and harder to code for, you are absolutely stupid. The 360 uses DirectX, which is the -exact- same thing that PC games run on. The xbox will not improve any quality to high, because it is extremely dated as it is hardware wise. You are an idiot.

  • @MistaaMojoRisin fuckinh american gypsy stop i dont give a shit

  • @kris10ish Good one. Considering you can't think of an argument you go to nationalities and nazi slurs? Right. I have no relation to any gypsies and calling someone American isn't an insult, it just makes you look like an idiot and a bad representation of your otherwise desirable populace.

  • @MistaaMojoRisin im not nazi how dare you am fucking british and YOU CALL ME A NAZI JUST SHUT HTE F UP PLEASE

  • @kris10ish I never called you a nazi, I said calling someone a gypsie as a derogatory term is a nazi term. I'm aware you're british. Perhaps once you grasp basic English comprehension, you can actually throw together a proper reply.

  • @MistaaMojoRisin hey I know english ok and so dont even go there but to end this im sorry

  • @mastershake2393 there where games (only in Japan I think) that used playstation eyetoy as kinect does now. so not even kinect is innovator. :)

  • currently Crysis and Crysis Warhead are both exclusive to PC

  • O YER!!

  • @CJCacctus Ashame that changed recently. Crytek ported Crysis 1 usingg Cryengine 3 to the console. Everything is on medium/low and lags a lot...makes me LOL

  • @mrapter7 Not a shame that it's now available to a wider audience, with arguably better suit controls (though aiming with a pad is laughably ineffective compared to with a mouse).

  • @laifalbert its a shame because crytek is a better PC only company imo

  • @laifalbert The framerate is atrocious and is virtually unplayable. Even the trailer for it shows this.

  • @PvtHudson6 /watch?v=qI3WdCLTsDQ

    Looks fine to me.

  • @laifalbert 0:38, 1:20, 1:37, etc. Very little action going on and the framerate still manages to tank. Nice example.

  • @PvtHudson6 Yes, the game stutters for half a second once in a while. Does that ruin the experience? No. Does it make the experience worse for PC gamers? No.

  • @laifalbert ...it's stuttering and the fps is dropping in scenes where little to no action is taking place, and it's constant not once in a while. I told you to watch the official trailer for a reason because the fps drops heavily in every single scene where ACTION IS TAKING PLACE. If that does not ruin the experience, I don't know what will. Let's not forget the stupidity of playing a shooter with a gamepad with autoaim. 360 gamers are robbing themselves of a true Crysis experience.

  • great review fat man, jus wondering, how well did it run on ur 8800 im getting a new pc that has a 9800 and desperately wanna play this would u no if this would run at playable fps?

  • Same question. 8800 GTS did you say in the review? Im running 2x 8800 GTX's and it givwes them a whole lot of trouble! The framerates in this video are what I recieve in game. What kind of settings do you play on?

  • nice review man, u answer all questions, give an objective scoring based on fun, not technicalities like most other reviewers. too bad youtube videos really dont do crysis graphics any justice

  • Does warhead have any mission where you can drive a tank? because tanks in crysis were brilliant

  • its quite a shame that the multiplayer community is so small.

    But that is to be expected for a game that can only run on a small percentage of rigs out there.

  • im finally getting a pc that can run this

  • dont overpay tho... my comp cost me 300 dollars (plus a 60-85 dollar vid card) and can run this full.

  • yea tru

  • Yes. I got a PS3. But I've tryed to play stealth/action games, like Splinter Cell Double Agent, but it really doesn't fit my way to play... I prefer more action than just sit and wait.

  • if i did not like the original crysis would i like warhead

  • Good review, 5 stars

  • Awesome review, best one I´ve ever seen. It´s very detailed and touches many aspects of the game. Best thing is that it was neither done by a fanboy nor by a Crysis hater. So you really get a good overview about good and less good parts of the game.

    At the end it perhaps get´s bit to positive (many bugs in MP, even worse performance) but however.

    ***** stars

  • Comment removed

  • I LOVED Crysis! But the question is, should I buy this, GTA IV or Metal Gear Solid 4?

  • This

  • yeah dude you should so get this game its way better than those ones

  • warhead has awesome music

  • Can you make a review for Far Cry?

  • i cant wait to see what peaple use with the engean that is not ready for ps3 and 360

  • Not true. They have found away to run crysis on the 360

  • sorry ment to say ...that is now ready fro ps3 a 360....my bad

  • Yes they have, but the consoles still cannot run the big and detailed enviromets, so Crysis and Crysis Warhead will never come to consoles, which is sad.

    But this means that if Crysis 2 will come to consoles, there will be much smaller and cramp enviroments, which will affect the PC-version in a bad way.

    So I hope Crysis 2 never comes to Consoles. I think it does, but I hope it doesn't.

  • yeah i agree ...i dont think crysis will ever come to consoles even on ps3 ....however i hope some devs you the crysis engeine on consoles

  • crysis 2 anounced for ps3 and 360 a hour ago ....

  • yep...

  • Comment removed

  • COOL

  • I have to disagree, the campaign in warhead is pretty average in comparison to the original. Similar to your reviews of the half life expansions, there weren't any iconic moments in Warhead in contrast the original :(

  • phsyco is cool

  • when i played the game i got the impression it was rushed..you dont even get to see nomad or phrophet or any of the other main characters and the game doesnt even end the same..in the origial crysis..phsycho is with nomad before he kills the final alien on a boat,theres no such thing in warhead,and also,warhead doesnt end with you on a vtol with nomad like in the original crysis...crytek messed up their game's story....again..if you want a good story..play halflife

  • yes because it is a expansion, this is prophets story, this is all happening the same time as when the first crysis, this is physcos story through the game

  • Ha, I just beat Crysis a few days ago, and I felt like I was playing along side Jason Statham (Psycho), he's so badass, and I can't wait to play as him in Warhead. However, I have taken a liking to being called Nomad every four and a half-seconds, but I'm sure I'd warm up to Psycho.

  • i preferred warhead to crysis, much faster paced, your not spending an hour walking around a jungle trying to find the place your supposed to be

  • Your reviews are great. It's nice to see a lot of positive things in games and not have to watch a review bogged down with negative things. Your reviews of games I have owned and played are very similar to my own thoughts which makes me think that you actually play these games and get to know them before you say things about them. (Sorry this is more a comment about the reviewer and not the review 5/5)

  • Great review ! 5/5

  • its bad that you are not nomad but it a realy good game !! i recomend you shuld buy it!!

  • do u play as psyco or nomad on ths

  • psyco

  • wtf u playeed as nomad on original crysis .lol owell thnx

  • great review!

    nice accent!

    yay crysis!

  • This is literally the best review of anything I've seen on youbube. Good job, keep up the good work!

  • BS! Crysis didint have the most advanced AI ever seen in a FPS, Jurassic Park Trespasser had the most advanced. Becuase the animals interact with everything. The dinosaurs can jump they can claw they can bite they can step on you they can do anything a dinosaur could do, eat, drink, move in heards, hunt in packs, fight eachover. The guy who made this video doesnt know his facts.

  • are you kiddin me ? lol

  • you probably can. but on low fps

  • Jurassic Park Trespasser dont have advanced AI at all that game just sucks idiot

  • hellcatdave1 your fucking retarted

  • With an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 2.83 GHz processor, 8GB DDR2 dual channel memory, dual 500MB hard drives running at 7200 rpm and configured in RAID 0, and dual NVIDIA Geforce 9600's, can i run this game on ultra high?

  • resolution?

  • no you can run it a mediem and just 1 high you need a overpowerd monster pc to run it at ma settings like i do

  • you're a dumbass you abviously know you probably can.....idiot

  • did u have probs wih draw distence?

  • 9:48 and forvard sounds like a comercial

  • this guy sounds like one of the goth kids in south park

  • wow u must have a powerful pc

  • great review cheers

  • oups u dropped the n bomb :)

  • he says niggles good review

  • he was actually alives the punch actually killed him lol just kiddin

  • 6:50 does he say niggers at 6:53 ROFL,otherwise good review

  • no he say "I only experienced a few NIGGLES here and there" not niggers lol ;)

  • so does ur scope break or something

  • lol 2.08

  • i dont now why but warhead stops responding ewry 20 min :/ why?

  • do you have vista? if it does you need to run as an ADMIN.

  • Crysis got boring very fast for me...donno why.

  • 0.o best game:) My PC is shit:/

  • What about this: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 2.83 GHz, 4 GB DDR2 800MHz, 1 TB SATA, GeForce 9800GT GS 1024MB? Can I play it flawlessly??

  • you can play it in high pretty decent not ultra high though.

  • if you were talking to me i have played the original crysis and it sucked btw

  • probably the most informative review i've seen in my life, big thanks

  • Great review, never thought about what the people who hadn't played the first Crysis would think. Nice job.

  • Why the hell would you review Warhead when you havent even played Crysis- that takes away from the review-

  • There is a huuuge problem with this game... performance issues are a big deal with this game. My specs are: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 @ 2.4GHz, 2GB RAM, XFX 8800GT Alpha Dog XXX Edition. Ran Crysis on Ultra High, 1024x746 throughout the whole game whereas Crysis Warhead, I 'Optimized system settings' and turned up as Mainstream. Seriously, Crytek did NOT 'tweak' the CryEngine2 for the better. The only thing that looked better in this game were the explosions... 'Nuff said.

  • Apparently your graphics card is better then mine...I have a Core 2 duo with 2.5Ghz, 3GB Ram anda ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600. weird that i cant run crysis on high.

  • U dont seem to have state of the art PC.

  • do i have to have the original game installed to my computer to play warhead? thx for the video, great job

  • no. warhead runs independant of crysis

  • very kewl review.. but some1 must do it on a low end pc o know every1 wants it to look good and all but why not show it low end pcs.. and one more thing does steam make any difference whilst playing the game? coz i noticed you were playing on steam

  • the aliens in original crysis does NOT see you with cloack.

  • that was a professional well made review. nice job

  • from 2:12 to 2:16 u say psycho saves the life of a NK soilder whos about to get exicuted umm where did u get that from? i played crysis warhead over like 3 times and i havent herd or saw anything of what u sad!

  • In the cutscene shortly after you rescue the downed American pilot, you happen across an unarmed NK soldier. The American pilot was ready to execute him, but Psycho stops him and just knocks the NK out instead.

  • ohh yeh in the 2nd mission after u pick up O'Neill and O'Neill wana kill the NK i remember that lol

  • ohh the new crysis did change my mind i hate crysis for its dumb weapon combat and death boring levels but here are both gone better and i increased the suit defense (i think one shot is stupid) well at least the new crysis the ai feels the shots when shoted and not react liek ut bots! areas and story are epic and FINALLY they used bigger areas and wide jungles like they said they will in the beta screens! also new guns balance the gameplay, you are never undefended against a tank!

  • its not a fucking expansion!!!!!

  • Dude, the environments aren't "much much larger" than Crysis' environments, they're smaller. The first level is somewhat open but there isn't a single level in the game that compares to Assault, Relic, Recovery or Onslaught

  • It's true that there's nothing to compare with Assault, but most of Crysis' levels were nowhere near as open as Assault. Warhead's environments are consistently more open - especially when fighting aliens.

    It's less apparent because Warhead is half as long as Crysis.

  • weldon29

    "Multiplat not exclusive....

    Don't spread false info."

    Oh Really. Guess I am on my way right now to gamestop to pick it up for my xbox360 and ps3.

    Oh wait....its PC only you moron.

  • Great review mate.. you should've shown the few seconds footage of the Big Boss of the final level.. :D

  • @Spect8er1

    hm... Crysis 2. i don't think crytek is working on that at the moment. they're developing a new game which will be exclusive to consoles. not a crysis game, but something's definitely in development... but not for PC. Crytek's really pissed cuz of piracy. It's sad :( I don't think we'll even see a Crysis 2 in future. As Cevat yerli said the Possibility of Crysis 2 depends on Warhead's sale. will it sell well enough ? i hope it does. it deserves that.

  • Multiplat not exclusive....

    Don't spread false info.

  • Good review. Can't wait to play this expansion. Especially when it's as good as you say it is.

  • Looks like a good game. Maybe I'll pick it up; I enjoyed the original Crysis.

  • Awesome review, I'm still saving for a video card to replace my shitty 8500gt.

  • nice review. thanks, mate.

  • i dont have crysis but can i buy this game without crysis??????

  • That's right. Crysis Warhead is a standalone expansion pack. You don't need Crysis to play Warhead.

  • Thanks man,i have crysis but you know how it is DVD snaps in half and the week later u get a virus so u have to reformat=(

    this was last year btw

  • Like he says though, Warhead will make very little sense in terms of plot without Crysis.

  • No Warhead is Crysis from Psycho's point of view. You can play warhead first, it wouldn't matter.

  • From what I've played of it so far, it doesn't really explain what's going on, just throws you into the conflict without setting the stage. The story doesn't really matter in these games, but still.

  • It does not tell Nomads story, but having played the first Crysis I didn't bother to think about that. But it sets the stage a little. In the first level you are informed about the alien encounters so far and Raptor teams status is talked about as well.

    I really like it that they put O'Neil's story in it too. That was a good thing.

  • Yeah I haven't got that far. When I get a chance I'll start playing it again, really enjoying it so far. It just seemed to me that the beginning at least would be confusing for someone who hasn't played the first game. Like "huh? Why's it snowing?" or something. Parts like that and the aliens first appearing would seem really random.

  • great review

  • Wonderful review

  • btw, i think i speak for everyone when i say: bring on crysis 2 so we can see what happens to prophet and nomad!!!

  • very nice :D
