Crysis 2 -- Change Language

You cannot change the language within in Crysis 2, but by modifying the system configuration file it's quite easy to do. Make sure the game is not up and running, then do the following:

• Go to the directory where Crysis 2 is installed, e.g. "C:\Program Files\Crysis 2\".
• Open the file "system.cfg" using a text editor (like notepad or the like).
• Go the line (near the end of the file) with which contains the string "g_language".
• Change the settings by changing the language name, e.g. from "g_language = English" to "g_language = German" or vice versa.
• Save the file.
• Restart the game. The changes should be visible immediately.

Crysis, Crysis

On the last weekend I have downloaded and played the 1.8 GByte demo of "Crysis", an ego-shooter and successor of "Far Cry" made by german developer "Crytek".

Although due the limited resource my current computer is offering, I was only able to play it with the details set to low, but even then the game was spectuluarly good. The nano suit is as well adjustable as the guns you are using, the graphics are amazing, the AI seems to be quite clever, the environment (houses, trees, cars) is fully deformable.

This game, although (or just because) it has a USK-18 rating, is a must-have for an adult player, and is likely the reason for me to get a new computer with reasonable graphics card and CPU. My current computer is now 2.5+ years old and so it's time for an upgrade anyhow.
