From your list and this comment it seems like you just don't enjoy linear shooters, which is fine, but a lot of people do. Since Crysis was always billed as a hardcore but rather normal PC FPS, one wonders why you bought it in the first place. You're like that IGN reviewer who gave Football Manager '09 a low score simply because he disliked the genre and gameplay style.

Btw I just installed crysis and with my rig 295gtx 4g ram and 3.44 Q6600 its NOT playable on max settings

Then you're doing it wrong, as my 260 maxes the game with 4xAA and 16xAF forced through the control panel (DX9).

every game should push the envelope of the genre or theres no point in the game (its technology), whether it be story, control, graphics, gameplay, interactions, ai ect ect, I'm saying crysis only pushed graphics while gameplay, ai, and other areas are just typical shooter quality. Yet people defend the game at all cost like you are. Its called fanboy.

dx10 is max, I liked deadspace, farcry 2 sucked balls


plz im nothing like that reviewer

It's called liking shooters, whether they innovate or not, as long as they are well made, and Crysis is extremely well made.

That's what I was talking about in other topic. You can't say that Crysis is great game because you're gonna be called fanboy.

Depends on the day (and hence my mood) and the enemy and the location.

I've found I can simply run past a number of enemies and they only chase me so far. Or I can just strength jump to locations out of reach and there you go.

On some coastline levels, there are small islands in the bay and I have swam out to those and gone from one to the other till I get to my target without engaging a single ground troop
