Here are some brand new scans of a Crysis preview that appeared in PC PowerPlay. This preview interviews Bernd Diemer – Crytek’s senior game designer. Diemer emphasizes the importance of the gameplay over the graphics. "When we release screenshots or videos for Crysis, everybody raves about the graphics"..."we want to be remembered for an intense and challenging single player and multiplayer experience".
