Crysis is a great game, dont get me wrong. However, it has its shortcomings

-Pros-
*Grade 'A' gameplay
*Awesome VIsual Effects
*Detail on everything is Amazing
*AI acts Fairly Intelligent
*Aliens from Outer Space look Awesome
*Nanosuit Abilities are Pure Fun
*First 1/2 of the Game Draws You In
*Quality Voice Acting
*Open Ended
*Interactive Environment


-Cons-
*Hardware Demanding
*AI gets Stumped once you Cloak
*Typical Save the World Plot
*Doesnt break any New Ground

I'll say it again, its fun to play. The best way I can describe it is a pretty FPS. It doesn't revolutionize anything like Half Life did back in the 90's. The Nanosuit is great fun but the game lacks that extra pinch of love, and it shows time from time!

Hardware/Software- Get a new Rig! Get the new drivers! Save the World!
