CryEngine 2 - GDC 2007 technology demonstration trailer

The famous CryEngine 2 trailer. First shown in March 2007 at the San Francisco Game Developers Conference.

Almost 10 years, and still not obsolete

10 years later this is still the best looking game out there!!!

[HandheldGamingHQ]

this engine was giving us 2020 graphics in 2007

[AustinBal]

Still a next gen physics system. Not seen much better than Crysis back in 2007.

[astrea]

Been nostalgic about this demo. This is still not the bare minimum tech standard for games today.

[Destroyer]

Truly a game engine ahead of its time. Just look at other games released in 2007.

It's a track from Crysis entitled "Reactor." YouTube won't let me give you a link to it, but it's easy to find here. Enjoy!

[alexanderjones]

So, when will we get graphics like this?

[Простойпользователь-пы]

0:51 it's like a real photo with an island! 😱

1:36 pov: you shared you opinion on Twitter

[Kynareth]

2020 and most of stuff shown here still isn't widely used in games today....

[PresidentKony]

How far we come from then to now full path tracing at 4k. Crysis 4 is going to be insane

[SalveMonesvol]

I'd love it if the engine could be optimized to run on a switch in portable mode. If it can't run crysis, it can't be called a "next gen" console.

[adamlee]

Unreal engine 4 is barely caught up to this.

[TRGTARD]

@Hackiis lol, the game perhaps, but in no way, shape, or form, is the engine.

[SibManRus]

00:30 это то, что сейчас чуть улучшив пытаются втюхать как Ray Tracing

[ratzmoonmopes]

It's a shame all of the footage in the second half is just privately scripted demos and none of this isn't actually in the final game... All of this looks so awesome but disappointingly none of it actually happens in-game so the player doesn't actually get to experience these epic moments, especially that last clip when there isn't even a desert environment in Crysis...

[davidquezada]

I always found cry engine being beautiful just I think unreal engine has better physics. also fox engine has better optimization

[vinG]

still 20years in advance on call of duty
