While I do agree that Crysis has better gameplay than Halo that doesn't make it good at all. In fact not only was it a waste of money but it would have been a waste of an hour had i done right and pirated before buying it....

It's because of overhyped games like Crysis that piracy exists. People are jsut tired of shelling out money for subpar games. I want my 50 bucks back....

 

I'm definitely no halo fanboy, but Halo runs rampant over Crysis.  To be fair regarding the piracy argument, Crysis DID put out a demo at release, which I downloaded and evaluated and found to be pretty but shitty.

The demo should have been longer, but fortunately I figured out the game was crap in the 20 minutes or so the demo gave you.  As long as a company actually gives us a demo worth checking out, and they do it before/during launch, then that should be a good enough argument against downloading the entire game to 'try'. 

Now, if there's no demo, and I'm unsure about a PC game, there's no way I'm buying it.  Shell out 50-60 bucks for a game, then be unable to return it to the store because it's opened?  Fuck that.  And in that kind of scenario I can understand why someone would want to download the game first.
