Many have wondered where Crysis came from when Crysis 2 suddenly appeared and blew\"\"<\/a> their minds away with the graphics and intense gameplay of well established blockbuster series. Originally only on the PC, this title required many to have a computer that would put NASA to shame in sheer terms of power to run the game but boy was it worth it. Good news though. If you couldn’t play it before, you will soon be able.<\/p>\n

REDWOOD CITY, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:ERTS) and award-winning developer, Crytek GmbH, announced today that the critically-acclaimed Crysis\u00ae franchise will debut a new experience on Xbox LIVE\u00ae and PlayStation\u00ae Network. In October 2011, shooter fans will be able to download a modified and enhanced version of the award-winning single-player campaign from the original Crysis, remastered for console players using Crytek\u2019s state-of-the-art CryENGINE\u00ae3 with all new lighting, effects and other visual optimizations. For just $19.99 SRP or 1600 Microsoft Points, gamers will download the most robust and exciting Xbox LIVE\u00ae and PlayStation\u00ae Network game to date.
\nIn 2007 and again in 2011, critics around the world hailed Crysis and Crysis 2 as titles that ushered in the next-generation of gaming with jaw-dropping visuals, industry leading technology and groundbreaking sandbox gameplay, featuring the super-powerful Nanosuit. Today, the original, award-winning 2007 single-player campaign has been remastered for Xbox LIVE\u00ae and PlayStation\u00ae Network with optimized Nanosuit controls, fine-tuned combat and full stereoscopic 3D support.
\n\u201cWe are extremely proud of what we were able to accomplish with Crysis. We set out to create a next-generation FPS and delivered a PC experience that became a benchmark for quality \u2013 and still is for many gamers even four years later,\u201d said Cevat Yerli, CEO of Crytek. \u201cBy bringing the single-player campaign to console, we believe we are again setting a new standard for quality in downloadable gaming.\u201d
\nIn Crysis, gamers will travel to 2019 where a team of US scientists makes a frightening discovery on an island in the South China Sea. All contact with the team is lost when the North Korean Government quickly seals off the area. The United States responds by dispatching an elite team of Delta Force Operators to recon the situation. As tension rises between the two nations, a massive alien ship reveals itself in the middle of the island. Now with hope rapidly fading, the US and North Koreans must join forces to battle the alien menace, fighting epic battles through stunning, photorealistic tropical jungles and frozen landscapes.
