Crysis Exclusive Impressions

The story begins with a mysterious meteor falling to Earth from space and "landing" on an island. Since meteors typically burn up in the atmosphere or explode on impact, the nations of the world know that there's something extraordinary about this meteor. However, the North Korean military gets there first and declares the island off-limits to everyone else. Your character is part of a US Special Forces team that's deployed to the island to find out what's going on, and the first part of the game will have you battling the North Koreans. Things take a change for the worse in the second stage, however, when the alien object opens up, "flash freezes" the island, and messes with Earth's weather. With a global climate crisis building, enemies will unite to try and stop the alien menace. And that will lead to the third part of the game, which is being kept tightly under wraps for now, though we can tell you to brace yourself for some zero-gravity combat at this stage.
