    Too bad it's unplayable until 2083 when the capable GPUs come out. Oh well, not like you're going to play it anyways - it's not like it's a game or anything...

    Video quality is too low to tell the difference from a high res texture pack of regular Oblivion. The trees do look better, though.

    An interesting demo, but not that big a deal. Oblivion already had realtime day/night cycles---years ago. It does seem to show/render all of the city/outside at once vs the "chunks" Oblivion loaded it in, but how does that make the game better?

    Also wish that all of the people/guards were there and system specs were listed, but considering the "efficiency" of the cryengine, it's probably better not to talk about the reqs.

    You know im sick of hearing people no being able to play Crysis, about how it requires some mega processor from the future to play it... I have a ati x1600 and Turion AMD 2.0 ghz processor, 1gig of ram, xp and it plays decent on low for me. But it plays it...

    Anyways, that flash does not do justice for the video, download it to appreciate its details.
