Crysis, much?
Hey everybody,
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?
