Crysis is not that impressive. Really!
The AI is crap (no I don't play on the lowest difficulty), the water looks the same whether you're above or below the surface and it's reflections have nothing on the Source engine.
Tree and brush textures are... strange and flat, and the physics are plain stupid.
Do you think a 5 ton cable on a wooden drum would float or that 9 mm rounds can chop down palms in a single shot or two?
A shotgun can devestate an entire building in 4-5 shots and the enemies can easily take 10-20 rounds in the torso before going down, strangely being no more efficent than shooting their legs if you want them dead.
Vehicles control like cardborad boxes and are horribly rendered, especially the civil vehicles.
I've never seen proper weather effects, and the game is teeming with bugs.
I really like Crysis, I do, but I'm sick of hearing how extremely fantastic it is. And for the record; having an ingame engine (which delivers inches more than others) that can't be properly run on ANY rig is not worthy of accolade, it's redundant.
