    A very nice expansion with very intense battles and an interesting main character which takes place chronologically at the same time as the original. The only thing I didnt like is that they downgraded the graphics in order to make the game more stable and playable for the systems back in 2008. The campaign is short in comparison to the original game but it is much more action oriented.

    Crysis Warhead. On the other side of the island. The addition of the original Crysis came out and not worse, but not much better. The gameplay itself has become more dynamic, but the plot has become a little worse. In general, positive emotions remained after the passage of the story of Psycho.

    Çok gereksiz bir oyun, niye çıkardılar ki bunu? Hayır yani üstüne bir şey de eklememişler.

    great game, just the physics sensitivity that should be better because I feel that Crysis 1 has better physics than this werhead

    Great shooter with interesting story, graphics and gameplay. Anyway the main game was still a little bit better.

    I recommend it only if it's on a really good promotion... I had only played Crysis when it launched and I bought this one for R$20 (4USD). Honestly, today I don't think it's worth it... I finished the campaign in less than 5 hours and the game ended lol.
    The game is good, a sequel to 1, nice story, good gameplay, but I recommend waiting for the price to drop.

    A relatively short expansion mission for Crysis 1. The level design and action are more streamlined than the main Crysis game. There are a few new weapons including a grenade launcher, and I found them quite fun. I especially enjoyed three levels involving vehicles. Unfortunately, there are no weird zero-gravity sections, which I regarded as the highlight of the campaign in Crysis 1.A relatively short expansion mission for Crysis 1.

    You can feel Warhead's budgetary and time strains every time it fades to a cutscene, which is kind of funny considering everything else about the game is a visual treat.

    If you like the original Crysis, Warhead is a great expansion. The story is shorter, but more intense. The graphics even slightly polished. All the good things stayed the same, but there is more of it to enjoy.

    Crysis Warhead I went to PC with maximum graphics preset, and the first Crysis I went to Xbox360. Therefore, I was very surprised at the beauty I saw. I can't believe it was 12 years ago. But there are traditional problems. For example, I have a monitor UltraWide and during cut scenes I had black stripes, and on the sides of the monitor, outside the borders of 16:9 they are not.

Seriously Crytek how could you do that? Graphically, although the game looks better, it is made on CryEngine 2 and it feels. Yes, and the wheel of nanosuit modes is not necessary, because you still use only 2 modes. The plot is as usual simple, but here it already organically complements the original story. It is felt that the addition was made only a couple of months, the duration of the game - about 4 hours at the middle level. Also in the last third of the game, cat scenes are literally stretched. But still I can recommend Warhead, I liked it much more than the original.… Expand

    Un'ottima esperienza parallela al primo crysis con un personaggio estremamente carismatico e storia travolgente e ritmo sostenuto per tutta la durata circa 6/8 ore e anche più se si esplora e la rigiocabiltà è assicurata con i vari livelli di difficoltà

    Crysis Warhead, también conocido como Crysis 1.5, es un Must-Play al igual que el primer Crysis. Practicamente es igual en todos los apartados a la primera entrega, pero hay que destacar la adición de mucha más acción y dinamismo.

    "9/10 – Fantastic.
    An extremely good product.
    These games leave me with something outstanding to remember them by, ideas for single-player or multiplayer, clever characters and writing, noteworthy graphics and sound, or some combination thereof. It is close to being perfect/amazing, but doesn't quite hit that mark."

ИИ остался абсолютно на том же уровне, что и был в первой части, такой же имбовый, такой же хреновый. Оружия по прежнему мало, но благодаря тому, что стрельба приятно ощущается и игра быстро проходится , стволы не успевают приесться. В общем и целом, игра на 2 головы выше первой части, играется гораздо интереснее и приятнее, разрабы проделали хорошую работу над ошибками,за исключением ИИ конечно.… Expand

    Same as the first one, with different point of view in story.

    Not 10/10 because is little bit too short.

    Considering this is an expansion, it's a great addition to the original game. It improves on a lot of aspects of its gameplay and mechanics. A lot more action and fast paced badassery gives you way more opportunities to exploit your suit powers to the max and hone your tactical skills.

    It feels like a somewhat significant downgrade in the graphics department, however. It looks a lot more bland than its predecessor and some graphical features like anisotropic filtering don't work. The view distance is horrible with objects popping up 2 metres in front of you. I had to fiddle for hours with console commands and config files, tweaking graphical settings to make the game look acceptable.

    The story is pretty forgettable and doesn't add much to the original, but as I said, this is an expansion and it more than makes up for the story with it's amazingly fun gameplay.    … Expand

    Excellent dlc for the original Crysis, interesting character, familiar sandbox shooter. A great addition to the original, albeit a short one. Psycho is the best character in the whole franchise.

    The original Crysis may have given you the basic tools, but Warhead allows you to really use them, and while its previous titles made it clear that Crytek knew technology like few others, it's this strange off-shoot Warhead that proves it's no slouch when it comes to level design and set-pieces either.

    For $30, Crysis Warhead is an incredible value, and you’d be hard pressed to find a better shooter on the PC this year. The single-player campaign is tight and superb, and the multiplayer portion delivers something that you can just in and play and have fun with.

    Warhead honestly is the finest burst of action gaming released so far this year, and if you're canny then you'll be able to pick it up for a mere £15 from online retailers. It's a five hour tour-de-force that's plugged the holes in Crysis with diamonds.
