Loved the eye candy but hated the AI

I've been playing Crysis for the last 2 days now and though at first the game really seems all ace. Nice graphics and atmosphere. But after a lot of skulking, I noticed some overpowering feats to the AI. I wanted to play the game stealthy and I thought if, like in real life, if I would crawl up a beach, no guy from a guard tower all the way to the other side of the map would be able too notice me in a second. maybe if I would have staid there for three minutes someone would see it, but this guy was apparently coincidentally looking right at me, EVERYTIME!!! So I quickly gave that up and used the cloak feature like everyone else. So I was cloaking through a camp when suddenly, 6 enemy's were standing 30 feet ahead of me. So I though a grenade would do the trick. So I pulled the pin and a soon as the grenade left my hand those 6 guys flinched their 360 degree vision saw a grenade coming at them and before the grenade even exploded the whole camp was on full alert. So they all ran hard and my grenade was wasted. So I was forced to pull out my AK derived assault rifle. It took 5 to 6, 7,62 mm rounds before they guy divided to drop dead. I'd like to meet the guy taking 4 of these rounds and would still walk and jump around.
My point is, due to the fact that the AI made it impossible for me to play the game the way I wanted to play it, I find the reply value very low. I proved myself when I started a new game for a second round and got bored in the second map. I also missed being able to shoot through walls like in Call of Duty 4. In Crysis you have to blow up the wall before you can kill the guy behind it.

Verdict;
Looks isn't everything. A total waste of money.
