Overall: looks very nice, apart from a few minor glitches:
*Still some trouble with disappearing/flickering shadows here and there.
*Look at the player shadow at 1:51 - the character has one, but the gun doesn't?
*The enemy jeep (2:04) looks strangely disproportional, as if the whole game is viewed through a fish lense.
I wonder how long it takes before that suit voice ("maximum armor", "maximum strenght") becomes a pain in the ass.

Hopefully EA doesn't make this game completely EA-rific with logos all over the place, stupid CD checks, copy protection, etc. Crysis is not Madden, and this isn't a genre that they've touched very often.

I like publishers that just show their logos for four seconds (four, NOT ten), and then sits down and lets the developers take over. No trailers, no hard sells, no stupid coupons in the game box, no "Sierra Utilities" crapware during the install. Just let the game present itself.

Though help in QA testing through development and post-release patching is much appreciated.

Okay.. brand spanking new engine and developers still can't fucking figure out how to add the shadow from my gun to the world? Look at 1:51 in the movie, and notice how he's holding a gun, yet the shadow isn't?

I know it's nit-picky, but come on. You'll need a computer to rival Deep Blue and small details like that get overlooked?

At 1:51 the player is in a gunfight and you can see the player's shadow on the truck, but the shadow has no gun. His hands are extended as if to hold a gun, but nothing is there. This really doesn't matter, I know it doesn't, but the Crysis videos are chock full of such shenanigans and it's fun to try and spot them all. Tis the price of high fidelity I'm afraid.
