    Hey quick question,

    So I finally assembled my new rig (in sig) and wanted to really test out my new video card. Tried Unreal 3, looked and ran good but never got into it still.

    Looking at gogamer.com I see Crysis Warhead for $22.90 on sale. Ok to the question.

    Is Crysis Warhead an expansion requiring me to buy the first Crysis? Or is it a stand alone I can just buy and be on my way?

    Thnx!

    Adam

    Warhead is a standalone game. You don't need Crysis to play, but you should want it. :)

    You don't need the original crysis to play it, but the original is, by far, superior!.... IMO :p

    Crysis is a stand-alone game, it's got a good single-player campaign, although it can be very buggy, same with the multi-player, it's good, when it's not being buggy. Otherwise it's all good, I mainly bought it to drool at it's awesome graphics and to stress my system. I got it for $30, for $22 it's a steal.

    Hehe thnx,

    I must owe credit to usapatriot for picking me out the motherboard and cpu. All I need is a faster hardrive and it's set.
