First of all, make sure your computer is fast enough for Crysis. You will need to buy the wireless receiver for the PC. |

You need a specific wireless adapter for the wireless control.
The play and charge cable won't work.

Dude, mouse + keyboard is the only way to play games in general...to many commands in Crysis to probably use a controller...would be confusing.
If your not sure if you can run it, here is a nice little site...just scroll down to what game your testing your rig for.
Can You RUN It?

PC gaming is much better using the mouse and keyboard. Also, you better have a damn nice PC to run Crysis.

thanks for the help, i decided not to get it since it seems like everyone says keyboard and mouse is the way to go and that is the only reason why i have never play pc games, i just cant get used to using them. plus my pc is not bad but it also sounds like i need a really nice one  |

Playing with the keyboard or joypad really depends on the game. I also use the XBox controller and wireless receiver when I play games - even for games like BioShock etc. Its just personal preferance. I find it easier via a joypad, sitting back in my chair, rather then over a keyboard. also some games, like Assassins Creed, have many controls etc, so using a keyboard is harder IMO.
I only use the keyboard for game sthat are more mouse orientated, such as Company of Heroes, C&C, etc.
