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!

  I never touched the series, but from what I've heard online it was
decent.

Far Cry was a great game as long as you had a PC to get the best out of it. After that, well Ubisoft took it in-house. Erm ... 2 I found at best mundane and at worst tedious. 3, that has the accolade for having you play the most annoying character ever. It's hard to like a game when the most enjoyment you get out of it is cheering on the bad guys when they kill you.
