Good game but missing that addicting hook.

User Rating: 7.5 | Crysis 2 X360
By dbeetham | Review Date:
Crysis 2 def had its strong points.

+Nice graphics (minus) some performance issues occasionally
+Great gameplay
+Multiplayer with lots of unlockables
+The suit def added a nice element to the gameplay


The things that made this game forgettable.
-No soul. I felt no connection to the characters. The story felt very generic.
-Level design was nothing special.
-I noticed at times the game seemed to struggle to keep the graphics and gameplay going smoothly. There were a few parts that I briefly felt like I was playing underwater.


Was this game worth the full retail price? No.

I would say wait for the game to drop into the $30 range or just rent it for a week.

I recently traded the game in because after I finished playing the campaign and a few multiplayer maps, I felt no reason to pick the game up again.
