I wonder why they made this video. Who are they trying to piss off, and for what gains?

CAN YOU SHUT UP WITH THIS ****! no one freaking cares!!!

CAN crytek please fix the retarded network issues with Crysh1t 2 already!! I want to play multiplayer now god **** dammit.

This thread should be stickied :p.

Crysis 1 is superior in every way over Crysis 2 in term of graphics and sometimes in terms of gameplay.

interesting to hear sh1tbox users opinion about this game..

Please fix the MP bugs. :facepalm:

This is a true and honoust video, i'm surprised gamespot releases such things

Anyway the things i miss most is => physics, Destruction, Open levels.

damn consoles.

Quick correction GS. What Wasdie made is not a mod! It's just a program that edits the autoexec.cfg for you.

Like most fans, I became aware of the consensus that Crysis 1 > 2 very early and before purchasing the anticipated sequel. Once I saw the game for myself firsthand the reality was crystalized, but I still enjoyed 2 very much. What occured to me though is that it's very common for sequels to be inferior to the originals. Some examples based on games I like and have played, F.E.A.R. and Bioshock immediately come to mind. Can you guys come up with more examples of games where the 1st was the best?

Stfu and enjoy the game, bich. Why should we care about your post if it's not OUR problem?

Im glad gamespot had the balls to do this. Loving that video.

Mass Effect,
Dragon age origins,
Half life ( In my view the first one is still far better than 2)

I can also think of times where the follow-up title is better,
System shock 2
Dungeon keeper 2
Battlefield 2

Indeed, although tbh there aren't that many differences. They only really point out about 4 examples

in fact the most special features of crysis are nanosuit, semi-open environment and amazing graphics.
now crysis 2 has lost all of these, except the so-called nanosuit 2.0 without speed mode and true power mode

That video shows it all. C2 is a dumbed down console port.

**** yeah. Gamespot FTW! Not corrupt **** like IGN.

nice to see a site being honest .

but we all knew that already and we gotta live with it . Graphics doesn't make Crysis 2 a bad game , but Cheater , lag and goddam bugs make , SO FIX IT ALREADY . it's been a month already since release ... every day I come here hoping to see news of a patch , and there never any , and when there is one , it's always something like :" there a patch coming " , O RLY ??? THERE BETTER BE ONE . THE QUESTION IS WHEN AND WHAT IT GONNA FIX .

Point being , I don't care about graphics anymore , I got over it , but I would atleast like to play what I paid 60$ for .

I disagree how the gamespot dude talked about the worse lighting in Crysis 2. Seriously, the lighting he talked about in Crysis 1 and warhead have the same effects as in Crysis 2, and crap, even a little better, with more enhancements and such. The video showed him looking through trees with big but few leaves, while in Crysis 2, he saw a rather bushy tree, so of course it won't get cut off by light.

He also didn't mention Crysis 2's water effects like ripples that Crysis 1 and warhead DON'T have.

What he was spot on about was the destructibility. There's not enough of it in Crysis 2. I would say Crysis 2 looks the same, if not, BETTER, than both Crysis 1 and Warhead in EVERY aspect, EXCEPT for destructibility, range of scope (which is actually unncessary. IT CAN be done in Crysis 2 but it wasn't for not only console optimization but PC optimization too. It was not necessary in Crysis 1) distances, and textures. Physics, lightings, water, and etc. stay the same/better in Crysis 2. I'm curious to see what DX11 will do though lol And I wonder if there'll be destrutibility mods for Crysis 2:o

Still Crysis and Crysis Warhead looks so beautiful when it compared to Crysis 2, not even in graphics and also in gameplay.

Well, in terms of graphics and gameplay mechanics, I don't think many games come to mind. Carnivores Cityscape? No game should have inferior graphics then it's predecessor though. Storywise the first is oftentimes better.

So many people can't handle the truth when put to their face, they find excuses and hide in one corner svcking up to people

+1

'THE ENGINE HAS SO MUCH POWAA!!!' is an unfortunate commonality here.

halo combat evovlved> rest of the halo games. far cry from 2004 >far cry2 first cod> rest of the cod. imo when the devs focus on making good games then making $$$ the games tend to be ALOT BETTER but crysis 2 is still great but can be improved.

I don't think there is any hope for Crysis 2. They just took the XBox game and made a PC emulator for it.
