Crysis 2

Publisher: EA

From our Crysis 2 Review:

'When we played Crysis 2 on the consoles, we honestly could have taken or left it. Only on the PC do we feel comfortable recommending and replaying Crytek’s best game yet – and its first chance of matching technical prowess with good game design. '

Crysis 2 is incredibly taxing on all components in a system, from CPU to GPU, so we've chosen to test without AA to generate meaningful and playable frame rates above 1,920 x 1,080. Otherwise, we run the game at its highest 'Ultra' settings and with both the DX11 tessellation pack and high-resolution texture packs installed.

We use the Adrenaline Crysis 2 Benchmark Tool to automate our testing, but capture results in-game using FRAPs as the tool's ability to record minimum frame-rates is inconsistent.

We test using the Times Square time demo, recording minimum and average frame rates from frame 1000 to frame 4900 of the time demo, with the result being the average over 3 runs.
