well the question for any new hardware always seems to be but can it play
0:05
crisis so I've actually got crisis running on the uh NVIDIA surround gaming
0:11
setup here and the answer is definitely
0:15
yes I'm going to try and find some bad guys to kill or something here without
0:19
accidentally running off the cliff like I did last time uh there's one ah die
0:25
okay so uh the 3D Vision surround rather I'm not running 3D
0:30
Vision right now we'll try 3D Vision in a minute but the surround gaming
0:34
experience definitely adds to a game like Crisis where being able to see all
0:39
around you I mean yeah you got your radar but it's pretty helpful being able
0:44
to see oh you know hey look there's a guy over on my left there out of your
0:48
peripheral vision whereas normally you'd have to rely on looking directly at the
0:53
guy in order to find him so that's pretty cool I think there's someone in
0:57
one of these oh this might be an objective oh cool I actually managed to
1:01
uh do an objective good work lus okay so
1:05
here I'm going to try and turn on the 3D Vision glasses and we'll have a look at
1:08
what performance is like in terms of frame rate well I better clear whoever's
1:12
in this truck out first wow my shooting is
1:16
terrible this is just unreal can I throw a grenade inside the
1:20
truck no that'll do the trick okay so
1:24
here let's put on the 3D Vision and press this button see how it
1:28
does so frame rate's a little choppy I still
1:35
have the details up pretty high so it's possible that turning them down a little
1:39
bit would uh would give us a bit of an improvement on that front but the 3D
1:44
experience with crisis is pretty cool it's not perfect you can actually see
1:47
over on the right side of the screen and I'm just going to pick up the camera and
1:51
go zoom in on that for you so you can see how invid rates this particular game
1:55
this is Crisis Warhead so they're saying it's good there's a couple of s there's
2:00
a couple in-game settings which I have already adjusted that they recommend in
2:04
order to uh to make the gameplay experience a little bit smoother overall
2:09
with 3D but the focus of this video is not only on the 3D aspect but also on
2:15
the surround gaming aspect so performance is acceptable even in 3D
2:21
mode which is pretty cool thank you for
2:24
checking out my video blog and oh
2:27
there's a guy behind me let's see if we can figure out where he is
2:30
uh oh I don't know where that's oh he's in front of me see it won't help you
2:36
like be not a noob at gaming if you're not very good but it'll definitely make
2:40
your experience more immersive if you uh
2:44
are not actually trying to be good and you're just trying to like enjoy the
2:47
game die die die die I need my
2:52
pistol I'm playing on easy for those of you who are like how is he not dead yet
2:57
well that's why for the sake of wow look
3:00
at this how many times did I shoot that guy that's
3:04
ridiculous mind you how many times did they shoot me with that truck yeah there
3:07
we go all right thank you for checking out my video and don't forget to
