There is no denying that Crysis’ vanilla lighting looks a bit dated nowadays. And although you can tweak the SSAO and bring to the table some amazing results, Crytek’s member ‘Wulfen’ uploaded a video that shows off his new lighting system and the amazing combination of it with Cry-Styves’ Shaders. This combo seems quite demanding – if we can judge by the footage that is choppy, though we don’t know the user’s test system – but it surely looks sexy. This lighting/shader combo boosts Crysis visuals to a whole new level, so be sure to check this out!

Playing co-op with a friend is always an enjoyable experience in games and Fudsine and his team have been working hard on bringing that experience to Crysis 2. Crytek sent us word that the demo of this modification is out now and players will be able to oppose the infamous pinger of Crysis 2 in Grand Central Station. Seriously now, Crytek should have implemented a Co-Op mode in the first place as it looks great. Unfortunately, the future of this mod is uncertain as a lot of members have left the team. Fudsine stated that they will patch the with any updates they make, meaning that more maps could find their way in it. Let’s hope that this mod will actually see the light of day and offer a full-length Co-Op experience. Continue reading Embrace yourselves; Crysis 2 Co-op Demo Released→

Our dear friends at PCGames.de have posted some new screenshots from Return to Jurassic Park. Return to Jurassic Park is a Crysis mod for Jurassic Park with a fictional story setting on Isla Nublar 18 years after the first film. Well, at least that’s the plan of the mod team and although it’s clearly stated to be a Crysis mod, word has it that it will be moved to Crysis 2. What’s also really interesting is that one of the ‘compy’ images is actually a ingame shot. It’s hard to believe that a modding team has managed to produce such real-time graphics, so our guess is that it’s a PR trick and nothing more. Still, these renders look lovely. Enjoy!
