I hope that horrible ending was another glitch.

The end game was 4 cloaked Ceph enemies? I took care of these guys effortlessly. I honestly couldn't believe I beat a game that barely even began to explain WTF was going on, if indeed it actually did. I thought this whole issue with the suit being all mind-meldy with the Ceph's technology would lead to something, but then it just ends. I spent the last half the game just busting open glass Gatorade containers attached to alien fountain drink dispencers for what? This is the worst ending since Halo 2.

No epic boss battle? No epic anything, plot holes the size of the Grand Canyon, missed opportunities in story telling, the old gameplay formula: "kill these guys, codec message bla bla, kill these badguys" way to spice it up with cut scene. Truthfully, the only thing devestating the Ceph did was create reeeally pissed off metal weeds.

*edit: It's late :D

Yeah, lots of people thought it was disappointing, myself included.

And by the way, it's Ceph (short for Cephalopod), not Seth.

As they should be. This is not an opinion or an overstatement. The game just ends abruptly after an easy fight with some slightly meaner looking Ceph soldiers? I suppose I would have been impressed had I not had the ability to cloak as well the entire freaking time. I would have liked to been at one of the Ceph meetings were they decided that after all the 4 type of soldiers they sent a cloaked one would obviously work "he'll never see it coming!" One of the mentally lacking aliens shouts. These are the badass aliens that crippled an entire world? Oh come on Crytek. . . I guess they didn't expect a mute marine to find a fancy suit and dip himself into their life giving red Gatorade supply. I must have given the Ceph intergalactic salmonella poisoning from my unwashed nanosuit butt streak.
