    I was pretty upset when I read the reviews of this game by the time it was released. While I enjoyed the second part more than the first one (Especially the stupid labyrinth during the alien level, the story got worse by progression- Generic American pathos, made me yawn and dulling away quickly. The third and latest part certainly surprised me completely: Still a lot of pathos, but nowI was pretty upset when I read the reviews of this game by the time it was released. While I enjoyed the second part more than the first one (Especially the stupid labyrinth during the alien level, the story got worse by progression- Generic American pathos, made me yawn and dulling away quickly. The third and latest part certainly surprised me completely: Still a lot of pathos, but now there is some deeper thoughts of being superhuman- doubts, questioning- I really enjoyed this new attempt. Furthermore the levels are HUGE, but still filled with a large variety of elements the player can use- Hack enemy turrets, shut down minefields, lure enemies away by shooting explosive barrels.. You can ALWAYS do more than simply rush through the middle of the map, shoot like a maniac and kill anything on the screen. You can flank, stealth and duck to get past the hordes of enemies- yes, this is possible!

    What I still don't like is the weapon handling and mechanics- every weapon (almost) feels the same.

    In the end, the game left me impressed and satisfied.

    Overall for this game, I had higher expectations. A lot higher. The story and campaign were strong (as always) but it just felt like there wasn't enough. Not enough new guns, new modes or a different gameplay style. The enemies were still the same just with slightly different outfits. The same guns were reskinned and renamed. The plot was disappointing since it jumped ahead a huge gap inOverall for this game, I had higher expectations. A lot higher. The story and campaign were strong (as always) but it just felt like there wasn't enough. Not enough new guns, new modes or a different gameplay style. The enemies were still the same just with slightly different outfits. The same guns were reskinned and renamed. The plot was disappointing since it jumped ahead a huge gap in time and brought up factors to an extreme. Beyond realism. Despite all this, I had to admit I still had a lot of fun playing the campaign - especially on the larger, more open maps. A good step up from Crysis 2's linear ones. The graphics: probably the best aspect of the game would set the benchmark for years to come. The world is more realistic than ever and the detail is just amazing. The multiplayer was surprisingly fun and quite well done. Just a bit more content and smoothness and this would have been on par with some AAA titles. What I always wanted, however was a co-op mode. Something along the lines of the Ceph infected humans being zombies or something but that sounds a bit like Advanced Warfare's Zombie Exo Survival. Still, I would like to see something like that as well as all the improvements stated above in a future Crysis game... If they ever make another one that is. So to conclude, I had fun with this game. Just not as much as I hoped. BTW The soundtrack is awesome. Expand

    finally got a rig to play it the "way its meant to be played" and i am not let down or can criticize this game in any way its just a good game...
    except the bow its tacked on and is really out of place despite having its own unique quirks and such

    Absolutely amazing! Has best graphics I've ever seen so far and the story made me cry in the end ( i am a fun of this series). I'll never forget Aztec, Jester, Psycho, Nomad and Prophet(Laurence Barnes) in my life and that shows game influenced me like Half Lİfe(who forgets Freeman?).

    Although missing the crysis 1 target completly it is still a refined experience...If you have the specs for it. The environment is emersive and dangerous, and the stealth gameplay gets amped by the bow. Compared to indirect competition like Call of Duty and Battlefield(singleplayer) it's stands its ground.

    An example of a game clearly made before its time, Crysis 3 proves to be an excellently made shooter with its own pitch and twinkles, carefully pacing the story campaign which nicely rounds off the story of Lawrence "Prophet" Barnes (the main character), and delivers an excellent multiplayer component with various game modes and customization options.

    An example of a game clearly made before its time, Crysis 3 proves to be an excellently made shooter with its own pitch and twinkles, carefully pacing the story campaign which nicely rounds off the story of Lawrence "Prophet" Barnes (the main character), and delivers an excellent multiplayer component with various game modes and customization options.

    Played at Post-Human Warrior difficulty on a rather mediocre laptop PC, the game still looked as good as promised while delivering a rather smooth gameplay experience with slick controls and intense action in a decent story campaign. Largely retaining previous mechanics, Crysis 3 expands upon the gameplay of the previous entry with features such as remote hacking and more environment pickups for your leisure. Yes, bad-ass alien weaponry confirmed. Now you can imagine a big energy ball of death flying towards your helpless target.

    The multiplayer component is also entirely functional, fulfilling what expectations there may be for the multiplayer shooter these days, such as (Team) Deathmatch and point-capture modes, and more niche options such as Hunter and Frenzy, fulfilling the experience that is Crysis 3 on both singleplayer and PvP multiplayer fronts.

    Overall, Crysis 3 is a game living up to its legacy, combining the best features of both the first and second entry in the series for a finishing title in the main series. Don't expect Crysis to be quite over yet, though. It may come under a different name, but the remnants of the alien-invaded Earth may have yet more to show. Play the game through and watch the end credits for a last cutscene. You will not be disappointed.

    GREAT game!!!!
    Nothing to complain. Very interesting and well told story. The gameplay is the best I've ever experienced in a shooter game. And the graphics are just brilliant. This game is so much ahead of its time, there were nothing even close to that. Even today in the year 2017 this game looks AMAIZING and is much better than most of the current titles.

    The third part of the game I really liked in all the aspects of the game-play, plot, graphics and ... its music. Oh yes, this soundtrack, which for a very long time after the game does not go out of my head, and will always be recognized in the future from the first notes of sound.
    The game is not perfect in some little things, but overall - it is a good ending of an interesting story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly, it's a pretty solid and fun FPS game, and I feel that it's better than Crysis 2. It has more open and huge outdoor areas, which allow for more freedom than Crysis 2. The gunplay and the combat are both awesome, and the gameplay took more notes from Crysis 1, which is still the best in the franchise. My only major complaint about the gameplay is that the bow is very, very, VERY stupidly OP much of the time, to the point where it kinda overshadows much of Prophet's arsenal.
    As for the story....meh. I gave up on the story of Crysis ever since Crysis 2 decided to retcon all sorts of stuff, and the story of Crysis 2 is a convoluted and poorly told mess. I DO understand the story of Crysis 2, but it's told very poorly. Here, there isn't much issue with the way the story is told, but rather the story itself. It's incredibly...generic. Resistance fights evil corporation and aliens and saves the world. The end. The story is basically the story of the Half-Life 2 trilogy, only without anything that made the story of those games so great. No real interesting or well written characters or lore.

While I personally loved everything about the game, others were turned off by its New York backdrop setting, or the lower scope level design with more linear environments. Crysis 3 lives up to the series legacy, with unprecedented graphics and visual art, combined with a compelling and more personal story that answers all lingering questions, the game feels like Christmas all over again for fans of sci-fi action-oriented adrenaline rush experiences.

    Many fans and critics found the game to be extremely easy and short. I agree both recruit and soldier are way too easy, but completing the game on the hardest difficulty takes mastering of the nanosuit and combat encounters. I'm pretty sure those who found the AI too dumb and the game too easy did not experience the hardest difficulty. As for the length, I think it's perfect, when the combat loop starts becoming repetitive, the game ends as the combat reaches its climax before you can start feeling the experience drags on. And after a hard-fought battle, you get a satisfying conclusion of the trilogy.

    There was some evolution in the graphics from 2 to 3 and they are beautiful!
    Gameplay is fluid, with some weapon additions and nanosuit improvements.
    In terms of upgrading the Nanosuit, I preferred 2.
    The story is interesting but it's very short, lasting about 6 hours and that's it.
    The game is a lot of fun while it lasts, too bad it doesn't last long.

    While it is technically the best version of Crysis out there, it is really only a slightly better version of Crysis 2’s mechanics and graphics. Because of that, Crysis 3 feels more like an expansion pack to Crysis 2 than a true sequel and more than likely not worth your time.
