Crysis 1

Post by Executioner »

I bought this game a long time ago back in 2007, got it installed just fine, but it ran like crap.

I downloaded a version (in my shares) that runs the x64 version of the game. It does use all my cores. See attached:

The game is areal challenge. I never did go through the entire game because my hardware back then was not that great and I don't even think I finished the very first level (i.e. after landing on the island). I don't remember what video card I was using, but I'm sure it was not that great. This was on Windows XP. Even with my NVIDIA 1060, and almost all the settings at max, it does get up to temperature.

I was never all that impressed with the gameplay back then. Not sure time would change my mind, and yeah the steep hardware requirements at the time didn't help.
