'Crysis Wars' - v1.3 Patch Available NOW

by Rainier on Dec. 17, 2008 @ 10:07 a.m. PST

In Crysis Warhead you will don the Nanosuit of Sergeant Sykes, aka Psycho. More brash and aggressive than his Delta Force squadmate Nomad, you'll experience Psycho’s parallel story during the events of the original game, finding that life on the other side of the island is even more intense and explosive than they ever could have imagined.
