Crysis almost not AAA on gamerankings anymore...

One thing about gamespot is that they're one of the very few sites that actually review PC games fairly. Unlike oh say 1up that will give a nearly pefect game (world in Conflict) and 8/10 because of the learning curve which was STILL shorter than nearly all games of the RTS genre. The fact World in Conflict isn't even AAA on gamerankings while it pretty much perfected the RTS genre is proof of how bad GR is for pc games.

Usually gamerankings is better but PC games are grossly abused by most reviewers that also review consoles with an exception being IGN which gave it a 9.4.

5 sites out of 21 gave Crysis AA.

Why are we listening to the 5 sites and not the other 16?

First off its 91% on Gamerankings, and I think it will stay at that or maybe even rise.

Secondly, I couldn't give a hoot what some stupid site says, Crysis is a friggin awesome game.

Every single complaintby every reviewer is a bunch of BS.

"We couldn't run it on it's highest settings", "We had some issues with our PC".

Incompetant morons like that shouldn't be reviewing games to begin with. Next thing they will say is that Super Mario Galaxy is a bit too colourful.

I think it's a little bit overrated. Now the hermits know how Halo fans feel when people say Halo is overrated all the time. ;)

You mean the same ideas that it borrowed from PC gaming?

And if you mean brought new ideas to console FPS, then you only mean Halo:CE, because 2 and 3 are rehashes.

While that it true with Halo CE and Halo 2, Halo 3 brought no new ideas and was for me at least, the worst of the big shooters of the year (COD4, Crysis, Orange Box, Bioshock).

Halo 3 was hugely overated. The previous games were not.

How about try and do something else with the gameplay? Something else with the online?

Halo 3 wouldn't have looked as bad as it does if Gears of War never existed.

Something new with gameplay? The added tons of stuff! Equipment deployment plays a huge part in changing gameplay. Generators/degenerators, portable gravity lifts, trip mines, fire grenades, bubble shield, radar jammer. In Halo 2 you ran around and shot people. in Halo 3, people who use the equipment to their advantage are much better off.

They did add 4 player coop online

Honestly, what more could they have possibly done with the gameplay?

In comparison, Gears has much weaker gameplay and far less features. They are two completly different art styles so i don't see why people are so eager to compare graphics.

I refuse to believe that millions of people will generate record sales numbers for a game that is sooooo overrated. Halo 3 not only set records in the video game industry, but they set records in the gaming industry as well. People won't just plop down $60 of there hard earned money for no reason. People won't still be playing this game years from now because of it's "hype".

I personally believe that as Halo CE had such a good single player and Halo 2 had such a good multiplayer that Bungie couldn't make Halo 3 a significant addition without radically altering the gameplay (eg HL1-HL2). For me, and Halo 1 and 2 were pretty much my favorite games of last gen, Bioshock, Crysis, OB, and COD4 was just better.

I'm not one of the hermits that believe that Halo is an awful series. I just think that after years of playing Halo and Halo 2, Halo 3 didn't shake things up enough for me to play it for more than a week.

IMO it would have been stupid and catastrophic mistake if Bungie messed with a winning formula. The formula has gotten them rave reviews, record sales, and a HUGE and loyal fanbase tha thas made Halo 2 the most played console game online of all time. Not only was Bungie right to keep the general formula intact (although like I said earlier, equipment was a HUGE addition to gameplay), not one person has given me a reasonable suggestion that Bungie could have done to radically change gameplay. that's pretty sad. People love to critisize halo 3, yet all they can say about it is "I wish it was different". Hell...they even threw in 3rd person view with certain weapons.

GameSpot did overrate Crysis by .5, in my opinion--not that it's a big deal. The GameRankings score is about what I personally feel is correct. For me, the latter parts of the game and the technical problems (I'm not talking about overall frame rates, I'm talking about inconsistent optimization and bugs) detracted from what was otherwise one of the most amazing, ambitious FPS experiences I've ever had.

Oh, and as far as I'm concerned, Halo 3 has nothing to do with this discussion whatsoever, because it's not even in the same league as Crysis in any respect except genre.

Did gamespot overrate crysis? I mean, its at 90.6% right now overall, mtradr43

looks like it went up

Avg Ratio: 91%

Like I keep saying, any site that "claims" Ocarina of Time and Mario Galaxy as the top 2 games of all time has no credibility in my book.

Besides, its more likely the case that performance is knocking those ratings down more than game quality.

You hate anything to do with consoles so your opinion about where there games should rank is irrevelant. Gamerankings is an amalgam IT isn't claiming anything. I think it's interesting that hermits feel it doesn't matter how a game performs when it's released because there can always be a patch or a new video card down the road that will "fix" the problem. Obviously some reviewers do feel that way and it is justified. If a game can't run properly according to the minimum system requirements then the book should be thrown at it.

I dont like the 360, that is all, its the only console I really wish I didnt buy, probably because it crosses over with the PC alot, or the most hyped games like Halo 3 are really not all that, I mean 9 of us bought it on Launch day, yet now .nobody out of the 9 of us plays Halo 3 at all .... it died so fast I was quite shocked, and this is the UK ..... other than the US and Japan ... Console central..... trend ive noticed, the new hype machine is Assasins Creed , everyone talks about it and goes to buy it ... can these games not grasp peoples attentions long enough?

My Sarcastic sig is for Doomsayers ... , and my profile? well I got lazy ... I could easily add the 30+ PS2 games, 10 GC games and what little of the Xbox I bought, or go further back to PS1 / N64 (No dreamcast) .... but then I thought "whats the point?".

Did gamespot overrate crysis? I mean, its at 90.6% right now overall, and dropping every couple of days. Within two weeks, it will end up being below 90, far below what hermits have cracked it up to be. Of course, on gamespot, its AAA, but it seems they decided to make up for a couple flops by adding too much here.mtradr43

I lot of reviewers marked the game down because they didn't have the rigs to run it. Or they were bitter that the rigs they have at home couldn't run it well either.

Personally I have no problem with the hardware requirements for Crysis, yes they are high but its good to see PC gaming pushed forward.

Crysis crushesthe current consoles in all technical areas, its a benchmark game. not just for graphics but for physics, AI, sound, gameplayand presentation.

Couldnt you of just said I favoured the PC , would of saved you alot of effort, which is true this generation, wasnt true previously, SNES and PS2 were right up there.

And well my first post, I aint bothering to look, but when I first joined I was more hyped about the PS3, having already played the 360 countless times with friends ... my opinion on the 360 is the same as ever.

The Sims is a nice example of how that logic fails.

If it has mass appeal, yes, it is more than likely not a bad game, but that kinda argument is almost like stating that sales are a direct indicator of how good a game is.

Plus he said it was an average game to PC gamers, it obviously wasn't perceived as an average game to Xbox owners.

Also World of Warcraft, is like the Halo of the MMO genre ... because its so casualized ... for those looking for challenging MMO, Everquest 1 was the one to beat , WoW is just EQ clone thats dumbed down ... which then leaves out the "sense of achievement".

A single player mode that doesn't suck would be a good start. Consider that was a huge strength of Halo CE, it was quite dissapointing to see Halo 2 and on half-assed and thrown together, the equivalent of a rickety bridge over a giant plothole.
