Which was not a crap game of course. Get back to Doom 3, newbie.

I enjoyed Crysis. I'd go so far to say I loved it up until the
underwater alien ship part. That last third was a letdown.
I played through it three times, the last time not using any suit
powers unless absolutely necessary (like for rock jumps).

After doing it that way, the cloak function seems pretty cheesy to me.
The game is better without it.

Big bugs... sob.

Thanks for trying but this weekend is buggered now.  Might as well go
cut the grass.  ;-)

And here's yet another one: http://stalker.deepsilver.com/presse.php?lang=us
(88%).

I guess some will find all the unpolished bits annoying while others
will find them endearing, much like SoC. I'm certainly looking forward
to it.

Warhead comprises mostly of the open-ended combat that was in the
initial parts of Crysis.

Here's what Cevat Yerli (Crytek's CEO) said,

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/crytek-s-cevat-yerli

"Well, when we finished Crysis there was quite a bit of internal
research as a post mortem of what we did right and wrong, and then we
looked at the reviews, the gamer feedback. Some things weren't a
surprise - some things we knew were wrong but we had to go. Sometimes
you have to move on, knowing that something is wrong, but you've made
the best out of it.

Unfortunately there were some things we knew - that the game's pace
was changing, but that's because we wanted the players to finish the
game at some point, but with that pace change came a game style change
too in around the last 20 per cent of the game. And in that last 20
per cent the change in play style was criticised quite heavily,
because it felt more contrived.

But we wanted to change the pace to make sure people got to the end,
and found a satisfactory conclusion to the game. However, the next
weakness was the ending itself - we said we'd have a great ending, and
unfortunately we couldn't make it great this time. Of course, we'll be
better next time, but this time we screwed it up. We were in the final
crunch phase and it was a bad thing.

So the conclusion was that, because we knew we weren't on track there
and Crysis Warhead was already in development before the original
Crysis was finished, we said to the Warhead team to make sure that the
same thing didn't happen with Warhead - the contrived ending, the play
style change, and that the core sense of Crysis should work more
strongly. It's something we found with Far Cry, and refined with
Crysis - and we want to refine it further with Warhead. "
