Crysis is a futuristic first person shooter (FPS) computer game. It casts the player as the wearer of an all-powerful nanosuit that allows the player temporary access to superhuman power, speed, or even cloaking. Crysis is known for its demanding requirements and is often considered to have some of the best graphics out of all video games known to exist today.
The game spawned an internet meme shortly after it's release on account of it's unusually high minimum system requirements. A YouTube user comments on a video that revolves around pre internet age computers, such as the 1980s IBM PC or the ENIAC vacuum tube based computer developed after World War II. The user usually leaves a comment such as
"Can I run Crysis on it?"
or
"Sorry, Crysis requires a transistor based CPU".
