Sweet. I hope this smooths things out for those that have had low frame rates. Crysis deserves more love.

  Agreed. One of the best games of 2007, which would've sold more if people didn't buy into the urban legend that the game can't run on average PCs - it can and now with this patch, it'll run even better on them. Superb game and a definite milestone in FPS gaming.

  I agree 100%. It was one of my best gaming experiences of 2007.

  Signed too. For me one of the 3 best 2007 games. (Cod4 and WIC being the other two.)

  SIGNED. Great game, don't let those who complain about everything sway you. Forums are filled with complainers and trolls.

  This is one of the better games I have played in a long time. Most of the people hating are the people who cannot play the game. Don't hate the game, hate your shitty system.

  I'm surprised how good it is, really. Also I'm running it on on low-medium settings at 1024x768 and while it may not look nearly as good as the max settings, it still looks really really good - better than a lot of games out there. People are just under the impression that unless you have a top of the line computer you won't enjoy yourself playing it.
  
  I can't think of many games before this that have succeeded so much in making the player feel like the ultimate bad ass.

      You can always find something to nitpick. The fact is, it's pretty damn awesome out of the box.

      - What's wrong with the AI?
      - How many PC games have co-op? None that I know of, for good reason.
      - The first 3/3rds is only the beginning. Crysis is the first of a trilogy that will continue with Crysis Wars and World in Crysis (current names, possibly subject to change and not necessarily in that order). Besides that it is already longer than most modern games.
