    What could have served as a reminder to how good it once was, Crysis Remastered is instead a broken mess that needed a lot longer in the oven. Terrible AI and awful graphical glitches just suck any semblance of fun out of this.

    Crysis Remastered is a lackluster update that, while it does manage to do some good for the aging game's graphics, doesn't do anything for the incredibly outdated gameplay, AI and story.

    If you never got the chance to experience the original when it came to PS3 and want to pick this up out of curiosity, it’s probably best to avoid it – it’s outright damaging to the legacy of Crysis. [Issue#181, p.88]

The hit detection is so bad I can't tell if I'm even hitting my target. stealth doesn't work and the frames holy **** the frames are so bad. The original crysis back in the day was far superior. I would not recommend the remastered version of this game. Full Review »

    Only having played a demo of the original Crysis on PC way back in the day, I was excited for this PS4 remaster.
    Regretful Purchase...

    Only having played a demo of the original Crysis on PC way back in the day, I was excited for this PS4 remaster.

    Having played a few hours of the campaign , I’m so disappointed to the point I wish I could get a refund. One of the biggest issues I have with this title on my PS4 console is the frame rate. It’s just all over the place and dips well below 30fps regularly making aiming and lining up shots extremely frustrating . Then there’s the bugs. Constant issues with AI completely pull you out of the experience and there are numerous graphical and technical issues that leave this game feeling completely unpolished . I really hope they can patch this up and make this more playable, because as it stands, this is not worth buying or playing.

Or both! Crashes to main PS4 screen if you attempt to change settings in game. Poor graphics overall. AAnd a complet waste of £25. Full Review »
