You must have heard how people were setting High for textures and shadows and what's not, not for me, I feel that the most appealing feature in Crysis is the Shaders, which is a GPU killing setting, therefore most gamers sacrifice thi in order to go high on other settings. I for one, loved the sahders so much, that I'd sacrifice other settings, in order for a high shader setting, it's that damn good =)

For the custom settings that texture and shadow as well as post-processing have, is a modified "High" setting file downloaded from the internet, since Crysis has such a versatile engine, why not make full use of it? These modified files, boost FPS in exchange of minor details that can be go unnoticed to all but the most observant.

The difference between high and medium in shader settings is too much for my eyes to bare, so there goes my resolution settings...




With a little tweaking, the "God-Rays" are enabled =)

I had everything turned on and at high (except for vsync), though I probably should have turn to DX-9 for some boost in FPS as there's no significant change graphically...there are changes but, meh. Settings as posted below :



Bioshock is quite the peculiar game, which packs quite a few bone chilling moments ( let's not talk about Silent Hill or Fatal Frame scary). The environment is fantastic and very spooky ( the medical pavilion comes to mind). Plasmids, which are like genetic modifying nanomachines, grant the players the ability to wield super natural powers (Lightning bolt FTW) The water are rendered very realistic in the game, and I for one, think that that's it's main attraction =)

The game is smooth with my system spec, though in later levels, it's best to switch to DX-9 for the extra FPS. It's an odd game, but fun, none the less.

P/S : I screwed up a bit by activating forced global lighting, it makes the game's lighting inaccurate and the shadows way off, I'm too lazy to do another benchmark, so there, bear with me. Besides, the last time I played, I turned it off ( I used the High preset), and the FPS I had gotten was about the same, maybe 1 or 2 FPS less though. I still remember getting about 22-23 FPS in the auditorium in Fort Frolic.

The fights are a bit mundane, but the scenery is enough to try scaling every part of the city finding flags and viewpoints.

All settings super high @ dx10 @ 1600*900
