Atomic's Crysis 2 night a big hit!

Event gallery: Fun was had, Crysis 2 was played, lasers were pewed. What more do you want from an Atomic party?

I think we've set a new high for Atomic events - everyone walked away from our exclusive Crysis 2 PC event last night with huge smiles. We were happy (well, maybe not while going through the living hell of packing our Alienware machines - crazy packaging!), Snez from EA was happy, and you guys, most importantly, were happy as well.

We had six sexy Alienware systems on the go all night, showing off the game's singleplayer campaign to punters for quite possibly the first time in its current state - and it's looking pretty damn smooth, too.

But on top of that, we had a great venue in the shape of the Strike Bowling bar, Laser Skirmish for all at the Battle for Sydney venue, an open bar, and some damn tasty pizzas. And if battling the alien invasion of New York and other Atomicans wasn't enough, we even had pool on the go. On top of that, everyone got a fancy Crysis 2 t-shirt, and will get a copy of the game when it's released. Neat!

The times were indeed fun - check out our gallery to see all (well, not all... looking at you, Juggs) the shenanigans. Thanks everyone, especially EA, for a great night out!
