[quote]Did you just come out from under a rock? In some form or another, all FPS's are similar. But a Crysis 2 and Cod comparison is weak, I mean where are the aliens in Cod? Does Cod have the Nanosuit? Koreans? I bet Captain Price has a secret Tac Launcher too!

Let me rephrase that, I wouldn't put it in the garbage, where it belongs.[/quote]
Now, i'm not defending CoD - IW/Treyarch are ignorant wallet jumpers.
But Crytek has, infact copied a lot from MW2.
they see the success of generic FPS's and are just trying to cash in,
it's uncreative and a little lazy, but it's just common buisness
sense.
"Gamers like cities, rewards, and ranking systems - so lets sell that to them for the thousanth time"
Making a game costs a lot of resources, so they're afraid of wasting it on somthing that might not sell - thus the generic features.
FPS are all similar in some ways, but when you compare somthing like Halo and CoD you can easily see that it's about reinventing the car without reinventing the wheel.
They have copied CoD out of fear and buisness sense.
Also; i've seen Price pull an Colt M4 rifle out of his ass - so who knows what else he's got up there.
