Yes. Although I don't think F2 is rubbish, it's just not nearly as good. Can't wait for F3... hopes are high, fingers crossed. lol

Oh that's not fair. FC2 is actually a pretty cool game. If you play it like a giant sandbox and don't worry too much about the progress hehe.

And kudos to ubisoft for the 1.4 patch that added proper widescreen and triple-side screen support to the game. The HUD even centers on the middle monitor which is something Crysis never did.

In terms that it was made more console friendly yes.

In terms of awesomeness? No.

I think Crysis 2 is actually pretty freakin' awesome and the more patches and updates that come out the more of PC game it becomes. Wait until Sandbox Editor 3 and DX11's release lol.

Fear 2 didn't have the awesome factor but that's only because the game ITSELF was mediocre.

Ironic enough, when i first saw gameplay videos of Crysis 2 it reminded me of FEAR2. Both have similar motion blur effects. Only Crysis 2 seems to have more colour, contrast, lighting and shadows.

And to comment about Far Cry 2. I thin Far Cry 2 is the worst game I have ever played. I give it a 0 out of 10 or a negative score if possible. It shouldn't even be printed on a disc!

I agree. FEAR was THE game that got me hooked on PC games, so it holds a very dear place in my heart. FEAR 2 was horrendous, and completely disappointing. It wasnt just an obvious console port, but the game itself left a lot to be desired. I too am keeping my fingers crossed for FEAR 3 but so far, at least graphics-wise, it looks like crap (in my opinion).

I would still say that C2 is to C1 what FEAR2 was to FEAR. Sure, C2 is superior to FEAR2, but visually that can be attributed to better hardware. For the record, I think C2 is exponentially better than FEAR 2 in pretty much every aspect.

Yeah Crysis 2 exactly FEARTWOAIZED.

I wondered mysefl how similar it it to FEAR 2. FEAR 2 also lost bumpy paralax mapping and many indoor shadows together with clean high res textures.

Same **** happened with FEAR 2 MP, which was just screwed, and even savegames fcuked up same way as they was **** in FEAR 2 - only checkpoints which are so rare, so you will CRY.

I agree that C2 is a good game, with tons of potential. However, there's no reason to believe that Crytek is going to take the time and spend the resources needed to correct the truly blaring problems with C2. If they were really going to add SE 3 and DX11 wouldn't they have simply said so by now? C2 is in the past for them, and game developers live in the next project, no the last one.

I'll be amazed of C2 ends up being the game it should have been.
