Crysis Maximum Edition (PC DVD) *Giveaway* [Free, US Shipping Only]

Sasqui · Jul 28, 2012, 03:52 PM

In the spirit of theonedub and manofthem and others paying it forward... I'm giving away Crysis Maximum Edition after finally finishing the tasty treats they call Crysis and Crysis Warhead.

The box comes with a lot:

... codes are behind the DVDs

Catch is this: I will pay for shipping, so I will only ship to the lower 48. I can't ship internationally from work. Will go UPS media mail or parcel post. I don't care where you live, as long as shipping is to the lower 48.

So the rules are this:

You have to have been a TPU member for more than 2 months, with more than 20 posts.
If you have or have already played both of the games, please don't enter.
Shipping address must be in the lower 48 (US)

To enter, post why you'd like the game(s)! Extra points for making me LOLz

I plan on chosing the winner either at my discretion or using random.org, and plan to close/choose on Tues, July 31st 2012, 10:00 PM eastern. I reserve the right to change the rules or cancel or simply change my mind for any or no apparent reason. Hey, it's completely free, so don't complain.

Good luck...

You shouldn't ship them to me because I've played both of them (although I don't own either) and because my PC isn't powerful enough to play them (and likely won't be for a long time, barring a miracle/job).

But I would appreciate the gesture.

Darkleoco · Jul 29, 2012, 04:18 AM

I would like it because Crysis is still one of the highest graphical standards I have seen and because I have always heard that it is better than the second one (which I have played about half through) and it would be a great place for me to start the series so that I can be ready when Crysis 3 eventually (if ever) is released.

Also

Well son them bulldozers are great but "can it run Crysis".

manofthem · Jul 29, 2012, 04:27 AM

Very awesome of you Sasqui!!

Crysis was the better game IMO: amazing visuals still, more open, better voice acting, and just more fun IMO. But Warhead is definitely good too, i did like the ending, better than Crysis' ending...

Regardless, it'll be quite a treat for whomever wins this!

The first really did set the gold standard. You know it's a good game, when you stare off into space at work daydreaming about playing it. True!

There needs to be a negative community rating on this site. What a stupid stereotypical post.

Glad I wasn't the only one thinking of saying something about that.

Sasqui · Jul 31, 2012, 01:00 PM

So time is running out... need more entries.

There must be more people out there who haven't played one or the other and are interested?

natr0n · Jul 31, 2012, 01:28 PM

I like the game cause in what other FPS game can you take a break from ownage to go swimming (work on your backstroke) in.

And here we have the typical paladin, notice how enraged he gets when someone makes a joke.

happita · Aug 1, 2012, 02:42 AM

Id like to get this one, especially since it has the whole package. I still have yet to play Crysis, only the demo gave me memories of once running this game at a playable fps. But STILL strains all systems to their knees. Metro 2033 is even worse than this looking at recent GPU benchmarks from w1z, but were talking 4 years later. Hope I'm still not too late for this

The LOLmaker: Ok, so...3 guys walk into a bar, a white guy, a black guy, and a spanish guy..............actually.......I can't lol sorry

Irony · Aug 1, 2012, 02:58 AM

I fit the criteria perfectly!!!!! And its 9:58!!!!

I would love to have this game because of the epicness of its legacy, its sheer graphical awesomeness, which even now hasn't been surpassed; as well as the ability to kill things with flying turtles.

(I've also never won any game contest ever. But don't factor that in your decision.)

not to mention the hopping frogs and pretty butterflies (not sure if they're deadly or not)
