Crysis 3

Pre-Order Crysis 3, Get Crysis Digital Download Free
Written Thursday, November 01, 2012 By Richard Walker
View author's profile

Thinking of downloading the original Crysis from the Xbox Live Marketplace? Well, hold your horses, because EA has announced that a pre-order of Crysis 3 will be rewarded with a free digital download of the much-lauded Crysis, which is also available to buy from Games on Demand.

“The release of Crysis in 2007 was truly a watershed moment for first-person shooters and raised the bar on cutting-edge visuals and gameplay and we could not be more thrilled to include the original game as a pre-order bonus,” said Crytek CEO, Cevat Yerli. “Building upon the framework laid by the previous games, Crysis 3 will deliver an action-packed experience that encourages players to assess, adapt and attack the Seven Wonders of the New York City Liberty Dome and challenges that stand in their way.”

Crysis is available from Games on Demand for $19.99, so this Crysis 3 pre-order bonus is none too shabby. Crysis 3 is scheduled for release in February 2013.

Great news, however it includes little to no info from EA, where do we pre-order from, is it exclusive to certain shops/countries, when do pre-orders begin, is it exclusive to pre-orders from there own store? etc

I personally found Crysis one too difficult to play. I couldnt get past a bit on the second or third level where you have to infiltrate a town and the only routes in are down via some ocean/ beach or over a heavily guarded bridge

It's a sin to not play it on PC (then again I understand not everyone can afford, but if you can it is a sin LOL)! Cool incentive, but I've had both for PC since release.

@7 Let me guess, you ran straight in thinking you could handle it?

For that mission, and a few others, you have to either take it slow, or make heavy use of your abilities.

Crysis was a great game. Now it feels more like a brand. Crysis 2 was just a buggy mess on my 360 at times. You have a tough sell Crytek. Let us see if your "superior engine" sells as well as your cocky babble about it.

That's hilarious. LMAO, "watershed" moment.

Mr. Yerli always seems to have delusions of grandeur when it comes to his games or Cryteks engine.

bah, they've talked me into getting it...

just to see what crysis is like through cryengine 3...

my PC wasn't really up to spec when the original came out, which probably looks better in some aspects being a PC only title (lots more fine detail, but too much foliage for my old machine to take, never got round to trying it since i got my new setup...only bought the multi-pack on steam recently for £10 having sold my original crysis a few month after i got it because it made my pc have "issues")

You guys are dumb. Crysis is amazing.

I never had one glitch in the first or second and I am getting the third. Crysis 2 MP was the only MP I somewhat enjoyed in a long while. I just hope this one doesn't have MP achievements.

I think that's a great deal since i believe crysis is 1600MPS(20$) And to pre-order a game is ony 5$.

So I could walk into GameStop, reserve 'Crysis 3', receive a code to download 'Crysis,' and cancel my pre-order? Nice. 'Crysis 2' had a great SP, but the MP was a terrible let down, so I don't know what to do here.

@20 thanks for that, I see that its only at Participating retailers LOL...Got my Pre Order in an offer from Sainsburys Entertainment about 6 weeks ago (£28.99) and since they are not giving out codes for hitman sniper challange because I pre ordered that aswell at £26.99 I very much doupt they are a "Participating" Retailer for this...but thats Ok because I already have Crysis and if I didnt I'm getting for about £10 cheaper so if I wanted to buy it I can :) Alls fair in Love and Gaming!!

Do you think they'll refund my points?

I bought Crysis a few months ago, and have had Crysis 3 on pre-order since it was first made available to do so.

Still, if I do get the code for the Crysis, I guess my son will profit!

After Crysis 2, I have no interest in buying this, that game disappointed me so much, you where just to strong, having to many abilities, I just coasted through things :/ no one of the harder difficulties, U also despise the developers for stance;s they've taken on things, and their idiotic comments they've made, as well as their delusional thoughts.
Yes, its a nice engine and all, but it hasn't single handedly raised the bar.

@44, thanks for the reply. I think I'm just going to get MS points for the original 'Crysis.' Like I said, 'Crysis 2' had a very fun SP, but the MP was terrible, and I can't warrant spending $60 on this.

According to Eurogamer this incentive is exclusive to GAME here in the UK which honestly doesn't come as much of a surprise to me:

I wish other games would do this more often. While I prefer the store-bought disc for bigger games, a freebie is always great! Just hope #3 is a decent game.

I definitely agree with #34 most people I know already have Cryis Digital/HD as soon as it became available for download this should have been Crysis Warhead with achievements that woulda been so much better. This is just like Gears of War Judgment if you pre-order that you get Gears of War 1. I mean sure if you are just starting to get into either Crysis or Gears and you don't have Crysis 1 or Gears 1 then its a great idea. But if you are any sort of fan of either series than odds are you probably already have the first game.
