Have you ever seen more exploding barrels in Crysis?
Physics engines are fun. They’re so fun that a game was created just to showcase such physics. Unlike that rip-off, the Crysis video below won’t require you to shell any cash. And you know what? Watching 3,000 barrels tumble down for free is much more fun than a one-level slingshot simulator worth $9.99.
If you’ve always wondered how 3,000 barrels look like tumbling down, then look no further. It’s interesting to note that the rig running the Crysis mod is quite powerful since there’s no chugging even when all the barrels are jouncing about. However, when the author tries blowing up all 3,000 barrels, he/she was forced to look away because a stare-down longer than two seconds would cause the PC to crash.
