    This game is pretty, BUT the multiplayer is not nearly as good as BF2142 or QW:ET, the first major DX10 game has a very pretty environment that boggs down a 8800GTX.

All in all if you have to get a game to justify the 500-2000 dollars you spend on high end graphics card(s) and the other 1000-2000 dollars for a system I guess I would be giving it a 10 so I could still live the lie. Unfortunately for crysis, valve decided to release the best gaming value in modern recorded history and 1 match of TF2 makes the the 60 bucks I spent on Crysis look like a it would have been better spent on buying the orange box for one of my friends or a nice logitech headset.

    A really average shooter with good graphics, if you can afford to drop 3 grand on a new pc. Far Cry was a better game by leaps and bounds. My pc is about a year old and I can only run it on medium and believe me it looks awful. These new "photorealilisitc" games like Crysis and Bioshock are proof that graphics really are not a substitute for good gameplay.

    Wow, it's amazing what low standards people have. I seen a retard here say this game is best FPS, even BEST PC GAME ever made. Do not let yourself fooled by the beautiful eye candy, it's just a barely average shooter with some retarded programming. The stealth missions are particularily stupid because enemy can see you and shoot you at over 9000 km and several bushes between.

    I don't have much positive to comment say about this game. The game play and design seems to be somewhere between Far Cry and Half-Life and is quite uninspired in that regard.

It seems kind of arbitrary therefore, like anything might suffice. It makes for a somewhat meaningless world where I never got the sense that I was killing REAL people for any REAL reason. Sure, this is an FPS, true, but the genre has been kind of stagnant since DOOM and Half-Life. Some attempt at innovation in game play and storytelling would have been refreshing. Perhaps some sense (illusion, even) of choice and consequence, non-linearity or ethical ambiguity would increase replayability value. Particularly considering that this game has been heralded as something quite special. However, there is little here that isn't monotonous and somewhat dull considering. For example, I found the cloaking ability to be far less rewarding than traditional sneaking. Almost a simplification of it... a shortcut, so that I needn't be too bothered. Similarly, simply running advances in AI and Physics in to game play represents more of an inclusion of feature sets the industry has come to expect more than it does design innovation. A mere addition of available, expected technologies on top of the game rather than a well-thought over design decision that actually alters the feel of the game for a specifically intended goal/reason consistent with the overall game. So, what redeeming qualities does the game have? The music is indeed nice, but nothing special or unique. The graphics... the graphics while indeed shiny, are not blinding for this reviewer: While the graphics are certainly impressive in a technical sense, artistic direction is lacking. Simultaneously, the environments tend to be unvaried and very reminiscent of Far Cry. Nevertheless some people will see the graphics as a reason to purchase and play through the, probably short, plot. It isn't enough for me and it's interesting to ponder what, if any, reason a person might have to come back and play this in 5 years time. Expand

I just spent 5 minutes running through a forest in the dark with a helicopter trailing me and shooting at me, even under a canopy of trees, even when cloaked.

The tires of vehicles squeal in gravel, sand, and grass. Occasionally wierd things happen with the physics like a soldier stuck through the center of the wall of a destroyed shack, tumbling in place.

    This game was massively over - hyped. Yes it looks incredible but it has very weak gameplay. The suit felt more gimmicky than anything else to me and the enemies (especially the aliens) were quite poor and uninteresting throughout. I think this will probably go the way of Far Cry, which became much less reveard when it's graphics became older.

Ok sure close combat might have been anticipated with the nano suit, which is pretty cool in the beginning gets pretty much useless later on. You occasionally use the strength feature to jump places that "randomly" stand in the way between you and the objective. After a few hours of playing I tried evading contact as much as possible, switching between speed and cloak. Yes the graphics are nice and yes you need a top notch computer to run it but even with one you ll get memory lag after some time. Call of Duty 4 might not have the best graphics or story but it certainly is more entertaining and still looks very nice and is much more fun than Crysis. Expand

The gameplay is fun, the powers are cool, however...with objects disappearing at a certain range then reappearing when you're close (even enemies) it's impossible to scope out a place and find the safest route because as you run for an area suddenly an enemy "appears" in what looked to be clear area beforehand. How unrealistic is that? Next, even if I do find an enemy at a safe distance and go for a shot, the guns you use are horribly inaccurate at a range of more than point blank. I remember doing single shots at maybe 200 meters from the enemy and have about half a clip unloaded before he died. This leads me to another thing..a guy gets shot, he looks around searching for you, runs around aimlessly, does not look to take cover. horrible AI anyone? I think EA MUST have paid these guys to give this game good reviews because this is not NEAR any of the recent FPS's that have come out and are not even in the same category. Please, someone, show me how all my points are incorrect. But thus far, me and 3 friends who have played the game found the EXACT same problems. Its not only me. Expand

    I wasn't particularly impressed with the gameplay though. Despite its rather open environment, it felt very linear. All of the weapons in this game were bland, not much recoil and not much damage. I particularly disliked the cloaking function, and in that sense Crysis 0.0 (Far Cry) was better.
    This game is pretty much Far Cry with nice graphics without mutants, but you do get some black squid shooting lasers.

Horrible squad AI, teams standing in wide open, with cover on both sides of them, letting you shoot them without moving. Bad final boss that seems to have been just slapped there for the purpose of having a final fight.
    The biggest problem with this game is that it gets compared to Half Life 2 and as such it fails on so many levels, no matter how pretty the graphics are.

The voice acting is robotic at best, weapon sounds are generic, bugs and glitches leak out of every proverbial nook and cranny, and the whole game reeks of a total lack of Quality Control. Sure it's all very pretty, but why is my several-ton tank getting stuck on the tiniest rocks and ledges? I can't count the number of times I was forced to abandon vehicles simply because they got permanently wedged somewhere that a children's push car would have no trouble navigating. Worse, the game would crash to desktop every time I so much as blinked at the graphics settings, and eventually degraded into crashing any time I tried to load a save game. I was about halfway through the game when this happened. Rather than slog through hours of bugs, glitches, crashes, and cheap deaths all over again, I simply uninstalled the game and moved on to something else. The Crysis Warhead mission fixes a *few* of the crash bugs that I had, but the moronic enemies and horrible driving mechanics were still firmly in place. All-in-all, Crysis is fun, but it's far too flawed and broken for me to enjoy. Expand

    Everything about the gameplay is awful. The suit abilities are underpowered to the point where they aren't fun. Gun play is some of the worst, with a ton of recoil and bullet spongy enemies. Everything little thing can kill you, like using super speed can kill you if you run in something.

    The game is also glitchy, like I saw props bugging out, a gun shooting itself, multiple graphical glitches, the list can go on.

    Don't get me started on the last 'mission'. Without any spoilers, let me just say I had to grab a weapon that was needed later on. I forgot to grab it, so when that part came, I didn't have the weapon. So I went back to grab it, but found out that I couldn't go back. I had to load an earlier save just to get the weapon. That is the worst mission design I have ever seen.

    Crysis is a bad experience that has been undeserving praised to a extremely high level. This isn't the amazing game people crack it up to be.

That being said, I felt very well prepared for this game. I also was one of the many who anticipated the release date with a tremendous amount of enthusiasm. I like many others was initially immersed in the graphics. But in time, the linear gameplay and two dimensional storyline left me feeling empty and ripped off. The suit was pretty inspiring at first, but became rather boring as the game evolved. Similarly, as the game progressed, I started noticing that it seemed to progressively lag, now Im talking about frames per second lag. I realized that this thing actually drains memory. Bleeds it. I tried to install the patch, but couldn't do it. It started crashing, and then it started shutting down my whole system. Then it did something I never expected. No, Im not talking about the weapons, or even my arms that appear to sometimes float in front of my field of view, Im talking about crashing my system to the point that I had no choice but to reload my whole OS. I started getting blue screen crashes, and SOMEHOW, this game managed to corrupt my pagefile, and completely fill it up. I tried every possible remedy to solve the provlem, but my virtual memory was completely used up, minus about 40 megs. I couldn't dump it, view the contents of the pagefile, or anything. Virtual memory was used up? Anyway, the culprit was this game. It was the only thing I was doing at the time. Don't waste your time on this albatross. In my opinion, Far Cry was much better, and much deeper. Nevertheless, I will never load up another Crytek Product in my machine again. Expand
