Crysis, On Your iPhone?

Topic:

Alright, one of two things has happened. Either Jon Stokes of Ars Technica has fallen down a magical well and emerged into a wonderous dream world where anything is possible, or he actually played Crysis on an iPhone.

For those of you who don't know, Crysis is widely considered to be one of the biggest graphics hogs in the gaming world. If your machine can run Crysis well, you have a top-of-the-line gaming rig. You can understand, then, why it's a little weird to hear about it being played on a computer small enough to fit inside my pocket.

Crysis on a Toshiba Satellite DX10 NVIDIA Powered Notebook

Topic:

From what I have seen of Crysis, it will be the single biggest driver that gets gamers to upgrade their video cards for DirectX 10 capability. The game simply looks great in all its DirectX 10 glory. It also seems that a legion of mobile gamers will have good reason to trade in their old notebooks for new DirectX 10 capable ones as well.

At E3 Dignews got to play Crysis on a Toshiba Satellite notebook computer running an NVIDIA gelatinized 8700M GT graphics card. Dignews says about the experience “…it can only be said that Crysis looked no less than stunning…” Read more

Crysis Hands On at E3

Topic:

Another of the cool games on display at E3 this year was Crysis from Crytek. Crysis is a FPS title with graphics that will leave PC gamers with the hardware to run the DirectX 10 version of the game at full tilt drooling.
