Couple of things; Crysis games have pretty bad animations, they stick out in the overall visual quality and they also have extremely strange physics, we're talking Skyrim strange here.

They're certainly good looking, no one can deny that but the biggest problem with the Crysis games is the horrible, bland, gimmicky gameplay and the overall shittyness of the writing, music, and pretend sandbox environments (no, don't swim around to that side of the island, we're gonna shoot missiles from a military vessel at you. This ledge can only be jumped by using Power on the nanosuit, this is the only way to force you to use the different modes since they're mostly useless).

Crysis is the most overrated series in the 7th generation, and that's really saying something. Its like they sacked all the people with actual brains after Far Cry and replaced them with rendering monkeys who think of nothing but post-processing and layer effects.

And that, my friends, is what I call a burn.

What actually is the point of making games that can only be enjoyed using three NVidia Titans in SLI?? I don't get it.


I am so tired of ignorance.  It takes a $180 card to max this game out in 1080p at 30 FPS.  



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.

PC started next gen with Crysis in 2007.

Too bad they took gameplay back a decade with Crysis in 2007.

Crysis 1 was great.  If it sucked, so did Far Cry 2 and 3.  Crysis 2 sucked though.

I'm a PC gamer & I love graphics, but I'm cheap. I'll admit it. I don't like spending too much money on items that depreciate in value rather quickly. There will be a newer better card next year that will cost probably $100 dollar more than the most expensive card now. I never believed in being a guinea pig for companies; hence, I don't buy top of the line products, specially in technology. Granted some of you get enjoyment out of all this, that's fine. I will not push my views on to any of you who enjoy spending money, I; however, am frugal and enjoy it.

My current GPU is an HD5770, my previews was the 7800GS. I wait to buy a good mid-card that can play most games well. True I could build me a 3-4k rig, but why? In 2-3 years I can get the technology for 5-6 hundred dollars. I would even bet that I can buy a video card with the GTX 690 equivalency & better efficiency for less than $150 in two & half years. That's a 850/2.5 = about a 283 dollar a year depreciation for just the video card. NOT worth it for me.

I'm not going to foolishly say that Console games are equal in graphics to recently released graphic cards, but I don't care. I don't need to have those graphics right now, I know I will eventually see them in the following generations. I play consoles because there is a larger pool of developers that make games for consoles. Good looking shooters don't interest me, I play CS:Go & that's enough for me. In fact, I'll go play right now.



Even should Onebox launch alongside PS4 this November, I'm pretty confident that PC Crysis 3 will be the year's best looking game, technically speaking. Provided you can max it out at a high framerate, that is.

Oh no, I must just hate FPSs if I share this opinion. Game was a polished turd.

It is only overrated by a few PC gamers. Nobody really buys or plays the game.

Well, Crysis 1 did sell decent, 2+ mils IIRC, even with all the piracy. Unfortunatelly, it was mostly for the wrong reasons, people wanted to see how beatuiful game looked and/or expected FarCry 1 gameplay. And though it wasn't bad game, it really was a huge step down compared to FarCry 1, which was not only technical marvel at the time, but also eceptional FPS by itself (HL1 and FC1 are still to this date my 2 favourire FPS games). But, Crysis 2 really put the nail into coffin, and I don't think anyone esle seriosuly expects anything from that IP anymore.
