Yeah, I spend 90% of my Crysis time playing the first few levels. finding new things to throw people off/into.

I love grabbing the huge Biffa Bin's and jumping into the air with strength and then throwing the bin downwards towards people! They go flying! Haha!

The weapons have a terrible feel to them. They have that console feel where the bullets just spill out and there's that muted firing sound, vs the traditional PC weapon feel with satisfying recoil and power.

The enemies feel like plastic. turn the assault rifle to semi auto and shoot a guy's arm or leg, they barely even twitch... Do you know what happens when your arm gets hit with a round from an assault rifle?!

So yep, bad gun play. I replayed FarCry with a graphics mod, and it was thoroughly more enjoyable because of the much better feel to the guns.

Crysis is really just something to impress people with that have never seen what a PC can produce graphics wise, or just to benchmark your rig. Fire up the first level of Crysis with a custom config/TOD and watch the jaws drop.

Other than that, it's really not that fun to play, the AI sucks, lacks ragdoll, and both of the games are too short.

I just got to the point where you escape the "no gravity zone" cave and have the first meeting with the alien guys attacking me. Whatever the snow level is called... don't remember, but that's where I stopped last. The game is awesome though, I don't really mind the flaws too much.. the game itself keeps me pretty entertained

I hate it when people complain about FPS being to short. Stick to your RPG's then. FPS's in general are short unless its that highly over-rated HL2 that never ends.

Amazing games are also spoiled by dumb sites who think mario is got the best graphics and gameplay. Well they just suck. Crysis and Warhead is one of the best FPS's ever made. And now its Killzone 2!
