Video Games - Crysis DX Comparison Videos

"Today's video picks compare DirectX 9 and the messiah DirectX 10 with Crysis footage. Yes, we can actually see a difference in the clips, and GameTrailers provides big, non-embedable HD files on its site.

Will Crysis be the best-looking game ever, and will it require a DX10 system -- and, of course, Vista -- to earn that title?"

The giant hunter gets a graphical facelift on DirectX 10 hardware.

See the graphical difference DirectX 10 makes in this action packed jungle fight.

Crysis looks great in either case, but DirectX 10 makes it a bit more amazing, specifically in the lighting and shadows, along with a plethora of other improvements. Too bad I'll have to upgrade to Vista for DirectX 10, some how I think it's worth it, mainly since I personally haven't upgraded in many years, 8800 GTX here I come!

I recommend checking out these videos in HD by clicking here if you aren't noticing that big of a difference.
