@Rodan2000 I don't really see the relevance of this unless you're just talking about people making fun of Nintendo flexing it's hardware can run a game that's 13 years old. Crysis was impressive technology-wise a decade ago, but it hasn't been impressive for a long, long time. And in the end the only version of the game that's worth playing anyway is Crysis: Warhead. The base game sucked beyond being a fantastic tech demo.
I'm surprised they managed to stick around this long.
As someone who collects Nintendo Power, Brady Games and Prima Guides (purely for collectors purposes, really), the fact anyone buys them as functional guides is a surprise. Of the three publishing groups I just named, Prima is horrendous and their guides have been consistently terrible for two decades. Some of their most recent titles like the Smash Guide only includes one page for the Spirits mode which is laughable. You used to buy guides to find secrets; and now Prima doesn't even cover basic information that is slightly more indepth than what you'd get going in blind. Never mind that the medium can't be updated; their pay-for-walkthroughs are significantly worse than any freely written guide online and considerably less easy to find relevant information in.
