DELETED

[Brandon237]

I thought Crysis 2 was better than Crysis.

I am afraid that there can be no forgiveness!
We will be at your door tomorrow to start the cleansing. Do not wear white trousers, you want things to look dignified at the scene of the crime expunging.

That is all.

I figured someone would bite.

Spoiler: Allow me to explain.

The first Crysis was a beautiful game with a horribly optimized engine, mostly due to how many new boundaries it was pushing as far as graphical fidelity was concerned.

The AI in the game was a joke, though. The human enemies would either stand out in the open or rush you all in lines, the alien enemies were fast annoying bastards to hit, and the nanosuit enemies were just there. Yeah, the AI in the second was a joke too because they basically only needed to script four different enemy types and all of them were mostly humanoid, but I thought they were a little smarter all the same.

The nanosuit was also a joke. Why did Koreans wearing normal bullet-proof armor take as many bullets as my hyper-advanced future-suit could take before going down? Why did speed and stealth mode drain power so quickly, why was the power jump a useless piece of crap, and why did you die in two shots if you weren't using armor mode? Speed mode might just be a normal sprint in the sequel, and 'power' mode (i.e. super-jump and super-punch) are equally almost worthless, but the upgrades and the fact that the cloak and armor can be used for more than five seconds instantly make it better in my eyes.

The weapons weren't... terrible, but the availability of them was. If you liked the SCAR that you start out with, well then you're SOL, because if you want ammo you better be picking guns up off of the guys you kill. Grenades, C4, etc. were useless because the stealth and AI were so pathetic that you didn't get any time to set up traps to begin with, and the vehicles were probably the worst controlled vehicles I've ever seen in any video game, ever.

And as for the 'openness' of the world? Worthless and only meant to pad out game time. They plant you down in a large map, tell you to find your own way to the objective, and then give you absolutely nothing to do except go to the objective. Sure, you can dick around in the water, you can run around through the trees, but in the end the only thing you can actually do is go to your next objective, which defeats the purpose of having an 'open' game. Sure, the game didn't paint huge numbers on where you should go depending on if you wanted to stealth or go out guns blazing like 2 did, but I found myself using the same tactics in both games regardless - Cloaking and taking out enemies one at a time with silenced, single-shot guns.

The story was batshit insane in both, so I don't count that as a point for or against, but the only thing that really wowed me about Crysis was the alien spaceship. And while Crysis 2 may not have had something that awesome, the ground tearing up and being pulled up into the sky was pretty cool.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think the first Crysis is bad. I just think the sequel is better.

And I know you were (probably) joking, but I'm sure that there are people on this website who wouldn't be able to stand that I think that way.

Fair enough...
BUT
And this is a large, round sexy and very important but,
there is a way around this:
CRYSIS WARHEAD.

Fixes all Crysis 1's crap, but keeps the basics of the cry-engine 2, is MUCH better optimised, has a more likeable character, uses the enemy types better and holy crap some of the level layout and shorter scenes like chasing a Korean General over a frozen ocean in a Hover-craft while aliens and Nano-suited koreans fight around you is simply epic every damn time.

So there it is, the solution

Damnit, by teaching the world of Crysis Warhead I lose my first-class ticket to torture now This means I have all that "does he really belong here" bureaucracy at the gates...

Yeah, I liked Crysis Warhead the most. But that didn't really have a place in my original statement.

Besides, most people who talk about the series seem to forget that it existed for some reason.

Which is weird, because it is probably tie for my second favourite game of all time. Ever. As far as First-Person perspective games of all kinds go (not just shooters), It is my favourite and likely will be until this reaping cycle ends

They must make more games like it, I do not like Cry-Engine 3's graphical style nearly as much =/

 

[loc978]

Fuck you *insert deity here*, I never asked for this. What a shame.

Despite really trying to, I've never liked an Elder Scrolls game enough to get very far.
I have never been able to see the appeal in any pokemon game.
I think of the Disgaea series as a collection of great ideas with horrible execution.
I'm a fan of strategy, yet Sid Meier's games bore me to tears.
I actually enjoyed Deus Ex: Invisible War... just not as much as the other two.
I still hate Microsoft after all these years.
I've never liked any of the Half-life games... unless you count Portal and Portal 2.
I gave up on the Metal Gear series at the beginning of Solid 2. The controls were that bad.
I could never get around the shitty controls in Resident Evil. Hate the series.

I don't see the appeal of Dr. Who.
I lived in Germany for three years, and I think of their beer as fizzy, yellow and weak.

 

[The Funslinger]

-I hate the Brovengers.

I know, they're such dicks!

 

[DJ_DEnM]

Father me sinned, for I have Forgive.

I don't think Fallout 3/New Vegas is very fun. I can't play it without losing interest very quickly.

 

[BishopofAges]

What is forgiveness in the grand scheme of things? My action/inactions have no impact until revealed.

-I stopped liking Morrowind after my friends showed me one too many secrets and the game became too cheap, easy, and lame.
-I can accept all fanbases for every game except whem they grow up, have kids, and allow them to play M rated games (or in some cases T rated when they are like 9-12).
-I hate 'realistic war-styled first-person shooters' and have never actually played them, making my hatered completely based on what I have 'seen' not 'experienced'.
-I think Halo should have had an epic and awesome tied-up ending at 2 and then maybe 1-2 spin offs only.
-I think that war DOES change.
-I believe that the only cake that is a lie is one that the recipient feels 'entitled' to.
-I never played the Metal Gear series.
-I loved Poker Night at the Inventory, and want more updates on it.
-I never played Mass Effect

 

[VeryOddGamer]

Sorry, Wrex (Shepard.), I've done some stuff that might not be very nice.

I haven't watched Star Trek, and most likely never will.
I haven't played a single Half-Life game.
I liked Dragon Age 2 a bit more than Origins.
I really liked Eccleston's Doctor.
I have a crappy PC.
I haven't watched Firefly. I'd say I probably won't watch it, but I don't want to be punched in the face by Nathan Fillon.
I liked the Star Wars prequels.
I haven't played and have no interest in playing any JRPGs.
I haven't watched and have no interest in watching anime. (noticing a theme here?)

That's all I've got for now.

No, wait, I haven't played a single Mario game and I've only played a couple Nintendo games.

 

[Best of the 3]

Forgive me... somebody.

I hate Zelda/Sonic/Mario (with the exception of Mario Kart) games.
I like some of the 90's music.
Don't like most of the Beatles' music.
I use a lot of racist humour.
I'm one of those Valve fanboys (albeit not so verbal).

 

[Jodan]

I didnt like shadow of the colossus.
i enjoied babylon 5 more than star wars star trek and stargate combined.
I did not like blade runner... like at all.
Drizzt is way cooler than harry potter.
- please forgive me

 

[DirtyJunkieScum]

Fuck you. Fuck you up your stupid ass. The previous comment was addressed to anyone reading it.

I played 5 minutes of Half life, uninstalled and chucked it, never looked at the series again.
I played 30 seconds of Mass Effect, uninstalled and chucked it, never looked at the series again.
I played 5 minutes of dead Space, uninstalled and chucked it, never looked at the series again.
I played 5 minutes of dragon age, uninstalled and chucked it, never looked at the series again.
I played 5 minutes of Baldurs Gate, uninstalled and chucked it, never looked at the series again.
I played 5 minutes of Final Fantasy VII, uninstalled and chucked it, never looked at the series again.
I played 5 minutes of KotOR, uninstalled and chucked it, never looked at the series again.
I played 5 minutes of GTAIII, uninstalled and chucked it, never looked at the series again.

I have never played command and conquer.
I have never played Zelda and never will.
I have never played Sonic and never will.
I have never played Metroid and never will.
I have never played a metal gear game and never will.
I have never played portal and never will.

I have never seen Firefly or Battlestar Galactica or any of those stupid sci-fi series' everyone seems to like. Same for Game of Thrones. Those I have seen such as Dr.Who and Star Trek I have no interest in whatsoever.

I think the original Worms is the best game ever made.

Basically I just hate all this crap, I have no idea why I'm even here...

 

[thewanderer41]

Forgive me... somebody.

I use a lot of racist humour.

Apparently it's okay as long as you're not white...and you're or the same race >.>

 

[Fiz_The_Toaster]

Forgive me Father, for I have sinned.[footnote]WTF I'm Lutheran, not Catholic! What is this madness?![/footnote]

I've never bothered trying any Metal Gear Solid games because they look ridiculous.
I think most anime is absolute crap.
I will always have a huge amount of distain for Microsoft even after their betrayal years ago.
I find it hard to believe I'm just now reading The Walking Dead and watching the TV show.
I will never buy a Nintendo until the cut the gimmicky BS.
The Silent Hill series is now dead to me and anything after SH4 needs to die in a fire.
I haven't played any of the Mass Effect games nor will I until I get a better laptop.
I don't plan on playing D&D ever.
I think Scrubs and Big Bang Theory are stupid shows.
I didn't share my bag of Doritos with my friend.

 

[RipRoaringWaterfowl]

Forgive me Father, for I have sinned.

-I didn't eat bacon today, or yesterday.
-I liked the first two seasons of Star Trek: Enterprise.
-I was just about ready to play Okami today, but I decided not to.
-I have yet to acquire any of the Persona games, or Skyrim.
-Speaking of Skyrim, I am really enjoying Oblivion right now.
-I ate all the frozen egg rolls I had today, which probably was a bad idea.
-Half-Life sits unbeaten on my shelf.
-I need to buy more orange juice, but I'm too lazy to get some.
-I could have had a V8.

 

[NerfedFalcon]

Forgive me, Kanako, for I have sinned:

I never kicked your ass.
I genuinely enjoyed a Call of Duty game.
I bought Recettear about a year ago and still haven't booted it up.
Matt Smith's Doctor made me stop watching Doctor Who.
I like both Zero Punctuation and Extra Credits over Jimquisition.
I don't like Bioware's or Bethesda's take on the RPG genre.
I thought Portal 2 was genuinely good.
I never finished Deus Ex. Any of them.
Quake is too hard for me.
I (almost) never install mods.
I believe that Sonic is finally over his depression.

 

[Best of the 3]

Forgive me... somebody.

I use a lot of racist humour.

Apparently it's okay as long as you're not white...and you're or the same race >.>

Nope and nope. Can't say I follow that criteria.

 

[The Artificially Prolonged]

Forgive me father for I have sinned:

I never completed Morrowind
I found the Oblivion dull
I've never completed a Final Fantasy game
I prefer one unit to a tile and hexes
I've never been able to get passed the second world on any 2D Mario game and got bored of the 3D ones after two hours
Wind Waker is the only Zelda game I've beaten
I buy yearly sports titles with minimal gameplay changes and updated rosters
I think the original Star Wars movies are overrated
I own an ipod despite hating Apple
I have windows installed despite hating Microsoft

 

[DrOswald]

Forgiveness and all that blah blah.

Bioware is not becoming a bad developer, they always sucked and people just didn't realize it. KOTOR in particular was a terrible game.

I don't like Marrowwind, Oblivion was a soulless abomination with good music, and Skyrim was actually ok.

I make people angry by insisting on moral victory when I lose in online multiplayer. Nothing makes people rage like refusing to suffer.

Numbered review systems are superior to vague assertions of quality.

DayZ is a good idea executed so horribly it isn't worth playing.

I am not a brony but I do have a favorite pony (my wife loves the show, and from what I have seen Fluttershy clearly has the market cornered on cuteness.)

I own more games in steam that I have not played than games I have played (actually, not true at this point but it once was.)

 

[felbot]

forgive me flying spaghetti monster for i have sinned.

i fucking loathe fallout 3, it sucks, Vegas is better.
anime is a useless label that idiots use, its cartoons from japan and nothing more.
people being lazy does not make consoles and pc equal.
i think feminists are annoying.
anybody buying ubisoft games on pc are idiots.

and thats what i think.

 

[Relish in Chaos]

Forgive me, Batman, for I have sinned.

? I don?t think chips are all that delicious and serve as more of a filler to me, and whenever I have them with a burger or something, I end up hurrying to finish them so I can move on to it.
? I haven?t watched a whole bunch of films with wide critical acclaim.
? I?ve only properly played about three main Mario games.
? I?ve never gotten round to playing a Zelda game.
? I?ve never gotten round to playing a Final Fantasy game, and have only ever watched my brother play VII (and maybe VIII and IX.
? I think the two Super Mario Land games are overrated and pretty bland.
? I think Super Mario World is overrated, and I had more fun with the Donkey Kong Country games.
? Also the Mario games really need a new storyline. Princess Peach is beginning to piss me off (and Princess Daisy?s better anyway ? gingers are hot and she?s only ever been kidnapped once).
? I?m a bit of a Cranky Kong in the current gaming generation.
? I waste far too much money on stuff like graphic novels and video games, some of which I rarely even play again, instead of saving them up for a rainy day.
? I played the first two Tekken games and thought they were too clunky to enjoy.
? I think Street Fighter II is a tad dated, and I prefer Street Fighter IV.
? I?ve always thought Cloud Strife in Final Fantasy VII was cool and I liked his spiky hair.
? Sonic can work in 3D; I think there have been a few games since the Mega Drive era and outside of the 2D platformers that were genuinely good (e.g. Sonic Adventure 2: Battle). It?s just that Sega have been lacking in the ?good idea department? for a while.
? I like Family Guy and American Dad, and I think their brand of humour's similar to The Simpsons.
? I just masturbated to the exception of furry porn that I?ve actually found myself liking.
? I?m somewhat prejudiced towards Christians and Muslims, partly due to my own experience with them (such as my mother and her friends).
? Wario?s my favourite video game character, and he?s better and more original than Mario.
? I find it sad that the Wario Land games don?t get more attention; they truly were some quirky gems.
? I liked Spider-Man 3 and X-Men: The Last Stand.
? While I can tolerate How I Met Your Mother, I think it?s a pretty bland and bog-standard sitcom, and the only remotely interesting character is Barney and maybe Robin (Ted?s just a pathetic love idealist, and I just find Marshall & Lily annoying).
? Friends and Scrubs are tied for my favourite sitcom.
? South Park is overrated, often redundant, and it doesn?t serve as an intelligent social commentary. I?ve just never found it that funny.

 

[SecondPrize]

Oh great Zeus, forgive this weak mortal.

I've never finished ANY Bethesda game, despite having owned every one since Morrowind, inclusive
I think it's long past time Nathan Fillion played a role other than Nathan Fillion
I refuse to give Doctor Who a chance because of my hatred of terrible production values as found in the first series
Bought humble indie bundle V and absolutely detested Braid, Limbo, Superbrothers and Super Meat Boy
Only paid a buck for humble bundle V, all of it to charity, don't feel bad at all
I bought Diablo III, played through once and act I again, then couldn't connect for 4 days and used just-released news not affecting me to ask for, and receive a full refund
