That's about as high-def as it comes, I was running it at almost slideshow-framerates just to take a nice picture. The small screenshot doesn't really do it justice.brplatz wrote:crysis!? Damn, to bad it isn't hi-def though

What did you learn about me from my desktop?

2 gigs of ram
ATI X1600 mobility
15.4", 1440x900
160 gig HDD, dual booted into OS X, XP
Leopard(OS X 10.5), and Snow-Leopard (OS X 10.6) as soon as it is released. Most likely before.
Laptop

i see, its probably the screenshot that makes it look not as sweet. but crysis is still an amazing game even if its not high defThat's about as high-def as it comes, I was running it at almost slideshow-framerates just to take a nice picture. The small screenshot doesn't really do it justice.
