An Amiga plus a lot of good will equals... Crysis!
Can an Amiga computer run milestone first person shooter "Crysis"?
Well. "Yes it can." But you need some - just a little! - suspension of disbelief. Here's a prototype created by author lifeschool, that uses a slightly different approach to bringing the amazing graphics engine of "Crysis" to the Amiga. System requirements are comparably moderate:
- PAL Amiga
- Kickstart 3.0 or higher
- 1MB Chip and 4MB fast memory
- 500MB free disk space
68030 or better CPU is recommended, though.

Ok, by now you will have found out that "Crysis" was turned from a dynamic first-person-shooter into a Laserdisc-/DVD-style game, so this isn't precisely a "direct port" of the PC version. ;-) But it's still a fun idea, it looks great, and it's even got a "virtual Windows 10 desktop". And it's under active development - so there's a chance one day it'll play just like the original!
