While the first game had some hard core graphics it clearly was more of a visual benchmark than game at times. Going forward Crytek has made some changes to the formula, most for the better, and produced a high quality game that will not disappoint both fans of the original Crysis and FPS gamers in general. GAMEPLAY - Single player Right off the bat Crysis 2 doesn't hold much back. The campaign starts quickly and holds its pace fairly well throughout the near 12 hour SP campaign. If you played the MP Demo for Crysis 2 you will feel right at home with what changes have been made to the suit controls, as well as what to expect visually from the game and the AI itself. This game comes across as a solid shooter. During the campaign you will have many tools at your disposal to dispatch your foes including a variety of weapons, suit powers, environment items etc. The suit...

This game is absolutely awesome. However, what some are referring to as "boring" is the fact that you have the option to utilize tactical planning. The beginning of the story is very much like every other first person experience such as call of duty. Emergency surprise attack, you pass out and then you are revived etcetera. When this ends is when the game gets interesting. The suit and the benefits provided by it provide unlimited possibilities with weapons upgrades and suit upgrades. Heat sensitive visors allow you to see through smoke, the tactical planning visor gives you the opportunity to plan your attack instead of just rushing in and shooting mindlessly at the enemy. The stealth mode where you become invisible for a certain period of time depending on how much energy you expend is very unique and fun. The suit armor is also just one of many things that make this game interesting and fun...

I bought this on a whim from Amazon. I watched some gameplay footage and basically couldn't help myself, it looked amazing. Story: After completing the campaign what I got was not what I had expected. With a name like Crysis, I expected ground-breaking...just because of their previous work on the original. In C2, I think they nailed the graphical part of things...the game looks great, I mean really great. The story however never really grabbed me...I never got to know my character and at no point did I ever feel like I was properly introduced into the story. What I mean is that I felt lost as to who or why I was playing. I felt as if my background was missing, and to me that's a huge part of story. During almost the entire campaign, I had no idea what I was there to do. So I just completed objectives and kept going. To me the campaign was forgettable, something... Read more |
