Fuckin' Brilliant! Put that in your pipe and smoke it, Roger Ebert!

@Fitz Rhapsody:
That's not the point. It's amusing.

MikeTheSpike

OMFG 5 stars! reviews ftw!

pyropetey

That was very well put together. Great video editing

Mrmoo2002

A water gun. Mint!

Nabilac

Eh, it doesn't look a lot like water, it looks more like blue sand.

Yeah, I know water is one of the hardest things to simulate, but come on, I don't see why this should be heralded as spectacular.

@cayton:

this guy is right

Waza

I still don't see what all the 'Hurrah' is about the Cry engine. OK, sure, the water physics are nice, but that's about it. The character animations are horrible, water tower water isn't that blue and that building collapsed like a dolls house.

DEXTER O

WATER!!!

Crawl to China

It reminded me a bit of the great Team Fortress machinima. Absolutely phenomenal.

Strangelove

It's the music that did it for me, without the music that video wouldn't have been that awesome. Great vid

TechnoPirate

Great stuff.

goldwings

This video is absolutely beautiful.

Seroth

Busby Berkeley.... eat your heart out.

-look him up if you don't get the reference.

axiomatic

that really amuses me a lot :)

RanChan03

I really hope they are able to accurately port this engine to consoles. My iBook can barely run the video lol.

Gray665

@Witzbold: I want a water gun in reallife. I'd use it with my portal gun and think of the opportunities!

z357x is judge, jury, and executioner.

Not a very good MIDI of the Wedding Waltz from the opera in Final Fantasy VI. Using the real music would've made this so much cooler.

Fitz Rhapsody

dude that was hilarious

demonwolf

While that was hilarious. I still think BioShock's water effects were better. The water in BioShock appeared to have volume, whereas the Crysis water... not so much.

withaneight

lol when the line of soldiers falls into the water like a water-ballet team. Very funny when the gun movements match the music :-)

soundgarden

Enough blue dye to make a ladies sanitary product commercial there.

marcus_ivo

@ChrowX: Sorry, my post above was supposed to be directed to you.

cayton

Haha, nice.

Mpalm.

The video's author on GameTrailers said "It's not actually water physics just particle phyisics that look like water, for example although there's pooling, you won't be able to fill something and make it overflow." I find that interesting.

cayton

I loved the part with the synchronized diving. Priceless lol

aphex242

@ChrowX: Agreed... after those tsunamis, there should be several inches of water on the ground, but it just disappears...

catapult37

Tsunamni, desu!!!

V I |Z U $!

lol, I loved the diving. Grat jorb.

Spiffyness

Yeah, this was great :) Much more artistic and fun then most crysis explode nukes movies. I loved the dive scene :D and the music was excellent choice.

Irenicus-the one and only

They did some interesting stuff for sure, but the Cryengine just kind of proved that even with it's 'omfgpowarful' physics, they still can't get water right. Looks like like they tweaked some particle physics instead of truly trying to make it flow like water.

Props to the video-maker for originality, and funny choreography, though.

ChrowX

Look out for that wave behind you!

Dual45s

The part where they all dove off the side of a pier into the water, one after the other, was just killer.

PlayerX

where are the plummer's when you need them >.<

maiky-nisute

@rebelphoenix: Hey, I've played the demo and it's not bad at all. Once you figure out all your fancy abilities, you feel like the bloody Predator picking off hapless soldiers one by one...

What other game can you pick off soldiers one by one, slip into cloak as the lone surviver looks around for you, then grab him by the throat and hurl him 20 feet into the air...

Sabre_Justice: Look, I have a long name too! Yay! I'm such a trend whore!

Too bad the game itself sucks.

rebelphoenix

Finally a Crysis clip with appropriate music. If I hear another lame band attempt to pass itself as rock, I will... click on more videos!

dunetiger

I want to buy this game...

And play it on my computer.

Actually, I just want the editor. I <3 Editors. And there's finally a decent FPS editor.

Codexx

@johnnywashngo: lol

dowingba

Now people are recreating the Asian Tsunami in Crysis, just like they recreated the September 11th attacks in MS Flight Sim?

Ban these sick "games", for trivialising the deaths of innocents!

Mentalist-air

The sand in the clip gives the water a kind of golden tint akin to a golden shower.

johnnywashngo

@Gunhaver: QFT
So True, this is the ultimate "shits and giggles project!"

biznatch

Even with the sound off, that was COOL. It may not have been that impressive in an "oh my GOD AMAZING" way, but in a holy crap, thats a GAME?! way it totally succeeds. Never seen a tsunami rendered in real time like that.

KaneTaker

Funny stuff. I wanna see "Ragdoll Diving" at the next olympics.

J-Fro

Holy christ, that tsunami effect was fantastic. I really want the script for that.

Atheist Jew

I liked the synchronized swimming, but my favorite part was the house getting hit by the massive tsunami wave. Maybe they could run prediction programs to figure out where problem areas are in areas at risk to tsunami or hurricane.

CarbonFalcon

That was awesome.i really like the part where they all dive in.

kcgig101

That was funny! Good stuff.

Shindokie: Kotaku's Whore

lol that was brilliant!

I so want that gun

Witzbold

Cute.

argh

I wish they had that in hi-def.

bangbangblah

Are we one step closer to dynamic water simulations in all games? Hmm?

Taco Bell™

That was hilarious. Lulz were had.

ShaggE

That engine is bizarre and amazing at the same time.

NitrousO

sweet video

Bisu

im pretty sure you'll see this video in the dictionary under the definition of "for shits and giggles".

Gunhaver

Man I appreciate the background music and synchronization. I hate it when video posters use loud horrible metal music in their videos.

kirstpo

Oh man, when those guys ragdolled into the water...I nearly wet myself

FlashIV

I didn't quite get it.
Needs more explosions.
What amazes me was how bad the water effects looked (they're so pretty ingame!).

TheCleaningGuy: is Maximum Risky!

This is a new gaming Olympic sport in the making.

Synchronized Gaming.

Utterly 'classic'

huginn

I feel like I just watched something dirty.

Krytha

I enjoy circus music. or do i? time to die computer!

magically_delicious

God is this CRY engine gonna become the new Source in a few years?

Nickatiah

I can't wait till these physics are considered obsolete. That'll be a good day.

mechis

Greatest Crysis video I've seen. So well choreographed and the music actually matches instead of having a random Linkin' Park song cut off in the middle ambiguously.

Dudemeister

How do they do this?!

Katorok

Hahaha, I love the Mickey Mousing. :D

ABigSmall

Also, I will always have a soft spot for Daioh

Fyren

thumbs up Nobuo music :)

KeithCourage

That was cool but not as cool as the "boxes n' nukes" one

FLYBOY611

Omg running around shooting water up into the air paired with the jaunty tune made me lol.

Dudemeister

Now if only they can add some kind of slip and slide item or simulator. Yeah, that would be awesome.

deathsyth8888

I give it a 8.1 with a bonus point for the "O Brother where art thou" finally.

Molbork

Holy shit that was HOT!

(Watersports)

Thassodar

ROFL!! Well that was hilarious! :D

TiKiMaN1

So... I laughed. Umm... am I human, you know, for laughing at fake digital Crysis characters? I'm going to go eat something now.

skitzogreg

Nice. I had been wondering why there was so much hype about Cryengine when I hadn't even seen the obligatory "how's the water look?" that every other new game engine goes through.

dowingba

Ummm...cool, sorta.

dirkxxdiggler

Yes. No morez boxez!!

Very creative and excellent score!, Two thumbs up!.

Fyren
