Crysis was simply a stunning game on PC when it launched years ago.  I was so jealous of anyone who had a PC that could run it at max settings.  I remember visiting the EA Showcase and they had Crysis running in max settings.  It was an amazing experience if you could handle it.

Cevat Yerli, Chief Executive Officer of Crytek said,“We’re really excited to bring the legendary Crysis to gamers who weren’t able to experience it the first time around,” … “The CryENGINE 3 has allowed us to remaster the single-player campaign and make significant advancements to the gameplay. We’ve added a new lighting system, some advanced rendering techniques and most importantly, we’ve optimized the Nanosuit controls to utilize its full potential on a gamepad. We really hope that gamers will enjoy playing the game as much as we’ve enjoyed developing it.”

So with that said, I’m shocked and pleased that Crysis is available on the Xbox Games on Demand.  I hope it’s a faithful port of the game.  Has anyone tried it?  It’ll cost you 1600 Microsoft Points or $20.  It doesn’t include the multiplayer component though.
