I don't think Alcatraz doesn't need to talk. It will mess up the story, since
*SPOILER*
At the end, Alcatraz was Prophet all along
*SPOILER*
And maybe I'm just grateful for what I'm getting, but Crysis 2 is the most beautiful game I ever played. It's also a lot better than the console versions, since i've seen those too
As I understood it the suit logged a memory of prophet (you begin to see his image in the later stages of the game when the "suit" speaks to you), and that memory ended up taking over, so to speak. The body inside the suit is probably more dead than alive (as witnessed when your in the lab and the doctor goes through the stuff thats wrong with Alcatraz

), and since the suit IS prophet, so to speak, Alcatraz becomes Prophet.
If you ever played WoW it'd be the equivalent of the whole Arthas+Ner'zhul = Lich King thing. At least it struck me a hell of a lot like it.
Nope I've never played WoW, but what you're saying makes a lot of sense!

About The Witcher, if a bad game is bad and gets better when an enhanced edition comes out after a year, I still see it as a bad game. Sounds lame, but I'm not waiting for some updates so I can play a game when there are many other games to play, but we're getting off the subject.
Why can't we be happy with what we get? Crysis 2 is stunningly beautiful even if it's on DX9. The game isn't broken and I haven't seen any bugs on my playthrough. Can't we just have a fun time playing than biching about slightly better graphics?
