"According to the mag, it was the multiplayer that tipped the balance. It describes the online experience as "some of the most exciting, angry and satisfying action you'll ever have".


The sheer spectacle of the single player campaign also left OXM impressed, and the mag said the game's Nanosuit "is both massively empowering and intelligently balanced by the need to manage its energy levels".

Probably thats fair for the X Box version. Though I haven't played it on 360 it plays well enough on PC, although Skyline plays alot better than Pier 17 for my money (more opportunities to ledge grab and jump). It has superior graphics for a console game, certainly in an elite category there.

IGN, Gamespot and the overall Metascore are the important things though IMO.

Also of note - "It was the multiplayer that tipped the balance; with sixteen super-powered Nanosuits battling it out" - 8v8, nice :D

Someone actually gives **** about IGN? BTW, I don't try to insult you, I just find IGN to be really bad at reviewing games and I have never trusted its reviews at all.

I don't care much about does Crysis 2 get good reviews, Crytek gets my money anyways. And critics almost always have differnent opinion compared to mine.

My only issue with crysis 2 regarding the gameplay of the MP is the fact that 6v6 is too little players for maps like those and you had to play hide and seek.

If crytek made the game 8v8 im very happy with this.

Awesomeness, i was expecting something around that. I do believe the other reviews will be around the same ratings.
Can't wait to get the game, seriously.

Mmm. I hope the PS3 version holds up. Reviews will tell the tale.

If not, I'll just order some other games off of Amazon. I've got a huge back-log as it is.

8vs8 confirmed. We might even get Power Struggle as DLC, they know what the fans want and they're going to give it.
