Crisis hits NASA
Scouts all over the world are beating against the wall, trying to find out what is really going on behind closed NASA doors.
There were doubts where to throw this topic: in “Games” or in “Humor”. While the "Games" won. Such an article was published in one of the US magazines.
Quotes (some loose translation):
“NASA specialists are very close to accomplishing what experts call impossible: to go through Electronic Arts' Crysis shooter with maximum graphics settings. Using a specially assembled Cray XT3 supercomputer, NASA engineers, in collaboration with students at MIT, played Crysis with maximum settings for ten minutes, until the system collapsed. ”
"Gone are the latest rumors that next month the team from China will attempt to fully complete the game"
“I believe in American practices and I guarantee that America will be the first country on Earth to be hosted by Crysis”
UPD. IMHO it is worthwhile to appreciate the subtle humor of the author of the original article :) This is precisely the banter over the game, and not an attempt to extol space technologies.
