View Full Version : What Score Do You Give Crysis?
Most professional reviews are above 9.0 a few are in the 8's. What's score do you give it?
(I'm not done with the game so I can't say yet.)
DO NOT VOTE IF YOU HAVEN'T FINISHED THE GAME!

I'd give it an 8. I believe in using the whole 1-10 scale (unlike most reviwer sites). So 5 is average but still pretty playable. So while it's an 8, it's a very good 8. Once you turn down the eye candy to high DX9, it's a really solid shooter and still looks awesome.

I honestly gave it a 10. If Bioshock and Halo3 deserve 10s then this game for sure does too.

9.5, but I'm only to the part with the AA guns.
10, I'm not afraid to hand out the big numbers to the kind of games that I wait for for years and finally delivers. Much can be said about Crysis but bottomline is (and I've just finished the game) that I haven't been this immersed, captivated, entertained and impressed for a long time, and compared to just about anything else on the market, Crysis is in leage of it's own. It makes most other FPS seems like amateur work. Half-Life was a 10, Deus Ex was a 10, Half-Life 2 was a 10 and Crysis is definently a 10 also. It's that special score that you award games that aren't necessarily perfect (this is an important point), but just delivers an experience way out of the ordinary :thumbsup:
I'm a bit curious what kind of FPS deserved 10 in the eyes of those giving it 8. Very curious indeed...

A Witcher FPS would get a 10... :p

Very well said. There hasn't been a game in the last 10 years that has captured and wow'ed all aspects of my attention as much as Crysis did. I didn't want it to end. :(

9.5, my personal GotY.

9.0!
Great game overall, but some parts were not as good as others. Escorting Prophet was stupid, the alian battleship fight and the big alien thing before it were repetetive.
9.0 awesome game. havent finished it yet but so far so good. :thumbsup:

7 because the performance was pretty terrible and the game is extremely easy, even on Delta. I know I'm probably one of those whiners who complain about the performance and all, but it does hurt the game; I don't care who you are, you gotta admit to this. Like I said in the CoD4 thread, I believe that it's GOTY because the graphics rock, SP rocks, MP really rocks and the performance is superb.
Once hardware catches up and we are able to play this on 1680x1050 at 60FPS constant, then I will say about an 8.5. Story is really short and shallow ATM.
9.0
Solid beginning, excellent middle, but somewhat underwhelming ending. This whole "trilogy" thing that crytek just spun on us doesn't sit too well with me either :|

Before I was really into the multiplay I would give it an 8.0. But OMG I got into the multiplay now and it's so awesome. I had played the beta extensively and it's so much better than that. The maps are really good as well. It really recaptures the kind of fun I had in the original Battlefield.

6.5 but the lowest your poll will go is 7.

graphics and game play get a 10. Story gets a 7. They had a good idea but failed miserably at sucking me in. I felt immensely drawn into the environment but not the story. Poor dialogue, voice acting and npc script are to blame. Maybe they'll do better with the sequel.

9.5, and it's a severe tossup between Stalker, Bioshock, COD4 and Crysis for GOTY for me, but we still haven't seen UT3 yet.
9.5 .. Just beat the game & had so much fun with it. true next-gen game being played today :)

It gets a 9 from me. There were more bugs/glitches than i expected, requirements are too high, a lot was left out from the game.
7 because the performance was pretty terrible and the game is extremely easy, even on Delta.
Easy? I'm finding it very challenging (on Hard). Make one mistake and every North Korean in the area is hunting you down like a dog. And there aim is pretty damn good. But seeing that many people beat games like COD4 on Veteran in hours, I can't say that I'm really good.
6.5 but the lowest your poll will go is 7.
When I go to IGN to see the average user reviews, it's often messed up by people who give 0's or 1's to good games. For Crysis anything below a 7 is unreasonable :D Same with Half-Life ep2, COD4, Bioshock, etc.

I'm playing it again on Delta difficulty and it's pretty darn easy for me.
