I liked Crysis and Crysis Warhead. Crysis 2, erm ... am I playing the
same large open spaces shooter!

Yeah, "Crysis 2" was such a significant change to the style of
gameplay. I hate to point a finger and scream 'consolitis!" but with
"Crysis 2" it was quite obvious that was what had happened; many of
the game's features had to be cut back to fit into the limited memory
space of the prevailing consoles, and the gameplay simplified so you
could control it from a gamepad.

It had its moments and at times it still felt like Crytek's earlier
games, but overall it was such a radical change that it was really
hard for me to judge "Crysis 2" on its own merits.

Remember Far Cry 1? That was a fun game!
