this would be moderately interesting if anyone ever made a decent game using this engine

as it stands right now all it's good for is high-res screenshots for people that are more interested in buying 3 graphics cards rather than playing a good game

i still remember how excited i got when i saw the cryengine demo pre-crysis, for the new dx10 generation. i thought gaming was going to enter a whole new golden age of awesome. all we got in the end was a short single-player campaign that had a few visually impressive moments, and a slew of multiplayer titles that overloaded on slow, bulky graphics and lacked any real substance. the result? entire gaming communities with £1500 computers playing browser-based quake live that runs on onboard graphics.

gaming-tech industry going this way --->
computer gaming industry going that way <---

i still vastly prefer dx9 games that keep the visual distraction to a minimum. bf3's lighting/shadow effects are nothing but impairment.

Amen. I miss good and interesting stories. Good graphics are yay, but they're not enough if the story is completely Uwe Boll. I'm getting older and slower and I don't always want a new candy covered actionsupersonicshooter. I want to be entertained with something interesting too. For example Fahrenheit was very interesting, altho the arrow sequenses caused a few ragequits here and there. More good stories! More good stories! *shakes fist*

But that was like ages ago, nor was it really cutting edge graphics. My PC would play it.

the problem with all the new pretty-graphics high-technology game engines is that their fundamental movement/shooting aspects suck dick.

i blame physics engines and movement that feels as if you are actually walking around with an 8-man tent on your back.

bring back quake and low grav tbh

Far Cry 2 looked pretty.

Gameplay made me shudder.
