While I don't normally get all hot and bothered over tech demos, I have to admit that I am thoroughly impressed by what Crytek has achieved with CryEngine 3. The animations alone have me looking forward to seeing what developers can do with the horsepower they'll be getting. Of course, giving a person a Stradivarius doesn't mean they'll automatically become a concert violinist. It's in the way that you use it. Here's hoping that CryEngine 3 gets used well.

Here we have a nice little piece of tech demo video showing off some of the features of the upcoming Alone in the Dark 5. Our lead character gets all McGuyver-esque, strapping things together with sticky tape to create new weapons or using it to stick things to the ceiling. Pretty crafty! I particularly like the shooting of the corpse to create a blood puddle that will distract the enemies long enough for you to pick them off from a distance.
