A surprising improvement over Crysis 2Karam M. Elahi
So here's an honest review from a 30 something gamer who's played three out of the 4 Crysis games (1, 2, and 3, sans Warhead) on the Xbox 360. Going into this review, I will profess that I am not really "in love" with the series, and neither do I dislike it. The story in Crysis overall, is pretty convoluted, and Crysis 3 is more of the same. The gameplay and graphics, however, have always drawn me in. A few things that I am comparing from at least the 2nd game to this one are the following (with my 1-2 word opinion at the end of each segment):Story:More of the same. Enough to keep you entertained through the 5-7 hour campaign. Psycho being at your side most of the time is actually entertaining. He has his moments. - neutral goodGraphics:This is one of those holy-cow-how-did-they-pull-this-off games. The difference between Crysis 2 and 3 is stunning. 2 was already quite the looker, but 3 takes it out of the park entirely. I am amazed that Crytek were able to pull out these kinds of graphics from a 7 year old machine. At the very least you would think that the frame rate would suffer, but surprisingly, it stays consistent throughout (seems to be 30fps). The look and feel of any of the levels after the first completely envelop you in the environment you're playing in. The grass swaying, the subtle use of lens-flare (which you can also turn off in the options!), and the general look of the enemies. I was extremely pleased with the eye-candy, to be sure. - very positiveGameplay:Much better than 2. The controls feel "tighter" and more fluid. Guns have that certain spunk and the kills are very satisfying. The Ceph weapons are aptly alien and look and sound really good. The grenades are so-so, in that the sound effect for the explosions feel muted, and personally, I think the timer on the grenade is a little bit too long. Cook your grenades before throwing them for the best results.The bow though. The bow....it makes this game. You really do feel like a hunter in the world and the advertising for once, rings true. The added benefit of firing it and it not breaking your stealth camo is the icing on an already tasty cake. Just try using the bow and camo for a stealth run. It hits the spot. I will rip on the energy meter though; it runs out of juice very quickly if you are doing any two things at once (camo + running, armor +high jump, etc.). In single-player, you will be able to unlock and equip perks that will help you enhance your powers somewhat (quicker camo switch, faster movement when armor equipped, etc.). The wide variety of perks in the singleplayer is a welcome addition.The levels are bigger than the ones in Crysis 2, although not quite the open sandbox that the original Crysis is. But still, that's more than enough freedom given to the player to approach a situation in a variety of ways. I definitely enjoyed the single-player in Crysis 3, more than 2. By the way, people are knocking the length of the game, as I have noticed of late. The length for me was perfect (a little over 6 hours of playtime on Veteran difficulty). Crysis 2's 14 hour playtime for me was stagnant and at times became very boring. 3 was pure fun and was packed with cinematic and sandbox moments. The perfect length and density for this gamer! And if I haven't already mentioned it before: play on Veteran difficulty. Normal was far too easy a setting. Veteran is the perfect coupling of story absorption and gameplay challenge. - very positiveMultiplayer:I'll say it now: it looks and plays much better than the beta. The graphics are not quite what the singleplayer has, but its pretty close. The netcode (at least for me), was tighter than the beta for sure. The maps are nice and well thought out and the gameplay is intense across the variety of modes that MP offers. I know that MP probably won't last longer than 6- 8 months, but what's here is enjoyable and lively. Great fun, especially the Hunter mode, which I would say is one of the best ones up there along with standard DM/TDM. - positiveSoundtrack: Comparable, if not better than the OST on Crysis 2. This one is more future-techno, but you will find yourself enraptured by some memorable music here and there. - positiveIssues:1.Sound quality drops in and out, on occasion, especially in the first open area that you get to where the huge towers are (chapter 2). After that it improves through to the end of the game.2.Energy meter depletes way too fast when doing more than one Nanosuit action, but you can circumvent this problem by buying perks in the singleplayer that can help.I wish:I really hoped that the game would have some sort of coop/horde mode. Anything to extend the amazing sandbox experience and enjoy the game with a friend, whether local or online. I won't knock it against the game, but hopefully Crytek will take a suggestion from this humble review and think about something like this for the next installment. :DAll in all: I had/am having a lot of fun playing through both single-player and multiplayer. I'll be on this game for at least the first half of this year. Highly Recommended.25FEB2013 Update: Adding in the 3D review of the game and an update for the multiplayer score:3D Review: Okay so I tried the 3D function. It natively splits the screen into two stereoscopic views, so I had to adjust my TV's 3D function to compensate for that view. In essence, the game looked very nice. The enemies are not really 3D, instead, they look like they would in the standard view. NPCs however, do look slightly 3-D. The effect itself seems to apply to your HUD, your weapon (which looks amazing in 3D, btw), and your immediate surroundings. Grass and other plants especially look very well done, as they also move out of your way while you walk through them. Crytek seems to have payed special attention to the flora, as far as 3D effects go.All in all, I was very impressed with the HUD, the 3D weapon effect, and the immersion you get from walking through grass and such. Overall, it's on par with Killzone 3's 3D. I'd give the 3D a rating of positive (7/10).Multiplayer score update: So, after having put in about 20 hours into multiplayer (and previously giving that portion of the game just a "positive" score, I am now raising it to "very positive". The multiplayer has been a blast to play through for the past week.The maps are solid and well crafted, keeping in mind the capabilities of the Nanosuit. The gameplay has been great through and through, in almost every match-made game I have played. Every game has had an "I can't believe I did that" moment. Let me list the few I remember:Power-punching down from over 25 feet and taking out 3 snipers huddled together. Sliding down a flight of stairs and getting an awesomely satisfying crotch-shot on an enemy. Sticking a guy across the map on the "Dam" map with the explosive arrow, and watching him accidentally run into a team member, taking them both out. Throwing down C4 in a high traffic area and watching a stealthed enemy walk right into my trap. Jumping up into the VTOL ship and taking out both gunners unaware, with back melees, and then taking out a third on the ground by immediately manning the turret. Clicking on Nano-vision to see and then kill, a stealthed enemy who thought I had no idea where he was. Kicking a car onto an enemy who was mortaring my teammates. Etc.The list of fun sandbox moments in multiplayer just goes on and on. Almost every game you play is memorable and you find a few hours have gone by, because you just keep thinking "just ONE more game and then I'll finish".The amount of fun I am having with the multiplayer in this game easily comes close to Rainbow Vegas 2 and dare I say, Halo Reach and Halo 4.Sure there are some occasions where the connection is not good (I'd say once for me out of every 20 matches), and there are some gametypes that are constantly empty. But if you're like me and you like Hunter, DM, TDM, Max DM, Max TDM, and Cell vs Rebel modes, there are more than enough games going on.I did not expect multiplayer to be THIS fun - very positive.

Sick of Call of duty? Play This!!!jonesy2423
Played about 6-7 hours of multiplayer on Xbox 360 on release day. Its a very nice change of pace from the same old call of duty and halo. I play almost every shooter that comes out and this is one of my favorites over the last couple years. The graphics are amazing, the different perks and suit abilities are cool, and using the bow is so much fun. Don't get me wrong there are a couple of things i would tweak with the multiplayer but everything else makes up for it. I even started playing the campaign last night and before i knew it 2 hours had gone by. I hate playing shooter campaigns because usually its the same old shoot this guy and fire like crazy to kill everyone else but I was having so much fun sneaking up behind guys to get the silent kills the time just flew by. I mean you can go in guns blazing, sneak up behind guys, be cloaked and use your bow. It kind of reminded me of playing batman games because all the bad guys would be freaking out when someone would go down or they'd find a body. Dont let me forget to mention that in multiplayer you can pretty much go ANYWHERE on the map you want to. If you can see something to stand on you can get there its great! You never know where the enemy will be so it adds to the excitement of playing.
Such a well done game.Marvusman
Do yourself a favor & pick this game up. Graphics are mindblowing on a good HDTV & sound to match. Most importantly the gameplay & controls are so tight & easy. After a couple hours of playing you'll be able to control everything with ease & there is a lot your character is capable of. Single player is very fun & sucks you in & is just long enough to invite you to replay it. Never too long or slow to become boring it's the perfect length. The multiplayer is excellent feels like HALO but with much more strategy, thinking & ways to approach battle. HALO, COD are just run in & shoot & see who dies first. More for kids & teens this actually produces a tense drama & tension like Dead Space in a FPS. Really tense at times & keeps you on the edge of your seat when you can't see enemies like the Predator. Get this game!
It feels good to be Prophet.D. Weaver
Just finished the game, and it was another epic ending. I want to start this review off with the negatives. First, I liked Crysis 2 and Crysis the most. I play on XBOX, and I was introduced to this series with Crysis 2. I preordered Crysis 3 through Amazon and received a free download of the original Crysis. I am about half-way through the first game but still believe Crysis 2 to be the best overall game. I just loved playing in the urban environment and loved how the HUD gave you your tactical options. I also thought the ending was the best of the two games I have completed. Second, Crysis 3 was way too short. On the veteran (hard) difficulty level, I beat it in about 8 hours, so the 6 hour time frame on the default difficulty is most likely accurate. Crysis 2 had 19 missions that will take 10-12 hours on default and 14+ on veteran. The original Crysis is also shaping up to be longer as well. I felt like from the beginning of Crysis 3, you were plunged right into the middle of the game and you knew where the game was headed. I enjoyed the suspense and creepiness of Crysis 2 and Crysis and waiting for the big reveal which was so satisfying.Now the positives. The graphics will be the first that everyone talks about. I thought Halo and Arkham City looked amazing. Nothing compares to Crysis 3-not even Crysis 2. This is as close to PC quality graphic as you are going to get. Be warned though, graphical fidelity takes a hit in multiplayer. Crytek outsourced the MP to Crytek UK (formerly Free Radical). Crytek UK is no slouch at MP and has a long history of quality MP games. So the gameplay is there, but the graphics do not compare to the campaign-Crysis 2 tops it in MP graphics. The controls and gameplay is tight and well-crafted. This is probably the most important quality in a game for me. I love Halo, and the idea of being a supersoldier is great. Halo is a well-balanced game that I love to play online with friends. However, no game makes you feel like a supersoldier like Crysis 3 does in the campaign and in multiplayer. I also love this sci-fi story. The critics have bashed it relentlessly for a lack of story and characterization, but I think the story is fine. It is epic in scope and gives you enough information or implies enough to where a reasonable person could figure it out. The only flaw may be that Crytek does not tell the story in the most effective manner. For example, we are left wondering the fate of certain characters such as Nomad, Alcatraz, Psycho, and Nathan Gould. Spoiler ahead---I have read somewhere that Nomad was killed off in a graphic novel. You learn of what happened to Alcatraz in this game. Psycho's fate is somewhat undetermined in this game, and I don't recall hearing anything about Gould in this game. I actually believe these are effective story telling techniques because they leave you wanting more or force you to use your imagination. People praised the original Star Wars but until The Empire Strikes Back came out, the fate of Darth Vader was up in the air- I don't recall anyone complaining about that.Overall, I think this was a great game. I would have given it 4.5 stars if I could, but I refused to give it "just" a 4. It was better than that. I think the conclusion was satisfying, and am happy with what becomes of Prophet. Unless Crytek can expand on the Crysis universe in an original, meaningful way, I hope this is the definitive end of this trilogy. It is worth it. Read more ›
