From the "do you want to feel old" department... the original Crysis is now 13 years old! Released in 2007 it still holds up remarkably well now and that is

Crysis Remastered feels fantastic and runs well on the Steam Deck with a few tweaks!

Crysis Remastered is a missed opportunity for a cult-classic to rejuvenate on modern platforms. It suffers from plenty of issues.

I quite enjoyed the time I spent with Crysis Remastered. The game does hold up well to this day however the performance issues and the frustrating AI really hindered my enjoyment.

Nearly thirteen years ago, Crytek released a first-person shooter that forever changed the potential for gaming performance. Whether or not your machine could run Crysis made it the de facto standard for GPU and PC stress testing, something that has fallen out of vogue as people switch to Time Spy and Cinebench. As we’ve learned many times this console generation, what’s old is new once more as companies like Saber Interactive dive into the back catalogs of popular titles from the last couple of console generations. Their latest entry takes aim at Crysis with a Remastered release that doesn’t ...

Crysis Remastered offers first-person shooter fans the best-looking, evolved, and innovative gameplay, enabling players to adapt in real time to survive.

Honestly, it’s difficult to recommend Crysis Remastered. Its premise and design remain impressive to this day, but poor optimisation makes it difficult for players to enjoy the new graphical additions. If you already own a copy of Crysis, you aren’t going to miss out on much here.

Full disclosure: Prior to this remaster, I’d only played Crysis 2 and Crysis 3, both of which I consider among the best first-person shooters from last generation. Crysis Remastered, then, gave me the opportunity to experience the beginning of it all. Unfortunately, Crytek‘s latest didn’t even manage to live up to the lowest expectations.

Back in 2007, Crysis was the video game that overheated computers and melted motherboards. A single player, FPS classic that developed quite the reputation for its dedication to graphical fidelity. It was also the game that solidified the CryEngine as a powerhouse of a tool in video game development and pushed the boundaries for what gaming could achieve. 13 years later and this beloved game has gotten a facelift, so how does Crysis Remastered stack up against such a legendary legacy?

If you have fond memories of Crysis and wish to play it again but with better visuals on the format of your choice, you’ll probably get some enjoyment out of Crysis Remastered. Well, unless your favourite thing about it was the multiplayer – that’s been ripped out. It isn’t a bad game by any means, and its budget price is appreciated, but it’s no longer the graphical powerhouse that it was. Even worse, it appears the aspect that really needed remastering was its gameplay, and it doesn’t seem to have been touched at all.

I do not doubt that anyone who loved the original Crysis to bits would be able to overlook the flaws to be able to take some nostalgia on the go. With everything else that is out on the Nintendo Switch, this isn't going to break the mold as it did back in 2007.

The only redeeming quality of this remaster is that it might convince you to play the original instead.
