Many games toss in alternative genre gameplay just to keep things from growing stale in game. You mentioned the flight sim in Crysis but how many times did you drive a vehicle before that point in the game?
The hover craft portion may stick out in your head more but you've already played other genres during the game and hadn't noticed it. Perhaps the issue is simply that it wasn't implemented very well.
Mummel, you still hating on Crysis? I'm running it properly. It's the GTA of FPS's, if the curent mission get's boring, go play with the physics for a while, go drive around and off a cliff, there are many ways to have fun in Crysis that aren't part of the core gameplay much like GTA does.
