Crysis, much?

by Tommy Tseng

Hey everybody,

Crysis

If you have a PC, and love PC games, then if you haven’t already tried this, I suggest you come over to my house for a good slapping! (Single Player Demo of Crysis, by the way)

I believe most of you may still be in doubt over if Crysis will be on the PS3. Last we heard some store clerk accidentally put out a promotional poster/box about Crysis on the PS3, and..that was actually all we heard of it. Not much to go by, but eh, we can always hope ;)

Hope no more. Crysis may actually BE on the PS3!

I was looking around on Crytek’s website, and found a jobs page…so I checked it out, seeing what qualifications you needed to get into this ultra ‘1337′ company. And what did I find?
