Electronic Arts and Crytek only announced the development of Crysis Warhead at the beginning of this month, and chances are we’re a year or two out from seeing it on the shelves, but they’re already trying to build some media hype by quickly releasing a teaser trailer that shows some game play action.

It looks, at the very least….explosive. I wonder if they’ve also ratched up the system requirements for latest PCs, making the game just as impossibly demanding as its predecessor.

Any game…and I mean ANY game that requires “strategic dismemberment” (now S.D. in my personal lexicon) is so high on my buying priority list that it’s not even funny. Dead Space from EA and ___ does just that.
It looks gruesome, gory and scary, but really, it’s not much of a departure from the dozens of similar games in the survival/industrial horror genre. I want to love it for the S.D. but…I just can’t. Yet another Silent Hill/Resident Evil/every other game in the future with cool toys and horridly deformed adversaries. Alas, such potential wasted!
