CryEngine paving the way, 1 title at a time

User Rating: 9 | Crysis 2 PS3
By Marilyn_slimson | Review Date:
This game is simply outstanding. It has many positives and a very very few negatives. Let me go over the pros first:

1. Graphics - The CryEngine 3 has achieved graphical insanity for the video games today. This game needs a lot of power and no matter how much power is being fed, your PC/PS3 will be pushed to the limits and you can feel that your machine is being stressed well beyond its limits.

2. Story/Direction - Everything is good so far, it is being kept simple and basic. The story will generally be overshadowed by over-achieving graphical prowess.

3. Gameplay - The combat could be worked on a bit, but it still is in the positive. No gameplay bugs so far with playing 5 hours into the game. The coding of levels has been done in a way that there might be error in code, as far as the engine goes - it is upto par and no flaws there.

Overall - 9.5
Amazing graphical ingenuity displayed by the CryEngine 3 will lead to a better gaming future Guaranteed!!

    Right off the bat the thing that stands out the most are the stunning visuals. Mind boggling seeing these kind of visuals on a 5-6 year old machine. I have to say this is probably the best visuals I've ever seen on a con... Read Full Review
