For years, Crysis has set the benchmark for amazing graphics. Now, thanks to modder Nathan Andrews, Crysis is going to be setting the benchmark once again, but for a whole new reason. Nathan has made a VR mod which can be used with the Oculus Rift headset, something that Nathan already achieved with Half-Life 2. Nathan says:
“I ported the Half-Life 2 VR mod that I’ve been working on over to Crysis and Crysis Wars (and also Cryengine 3 if anyone is interested in building a game from the ground up with VR support),”
Unfortunately, the mod isn’t finished as he needs to add crosshair tracking and iron-sights to improve aiming, but it is still an impressive achievement considering it’s a lone modder undertaking this project. Just check out this video of the Oculus at work:
After seeing the progress Nathan is making I’m more than excited. Infact, i’m more excited about this than I was with the Sony reveal. I think the phrase everyone is looking for right now is definitely “OH MY GOD!!”
