Cevat Yerli, the CEO and President of Crytek, gave out a very interesting factoid regarding the upcoming sequel to Crysis called Crysis: Warhead.

According to him, because of the new optimizations made to the game engine, the game can run at 30 to 35 frames per second with high graphics settings on a Â€ 400 (around US$ 620) computer.

He pointed out that they wanted to steer clear of the image that Crysis: Warhead was a game that only gamers with high-end PCs could enjoy. A sentiment, we might add, that a number of gamers had with the original Crysis.

Interestingly enough, Yerli also noted that the changes they've made to the engine can also be applied to Crysis. A fact that users with less than optimal specs may want to look into if the developers decide to release a patch. It begs the question though: will the graphics of the game suffer because of these optimizations? We'll just have to wait and see.
