The suit can be great fun (after all, who doesn't like a cloaking device), but physics only goes so far.  I mean when HL2 came out, I sad there forever blasting milk cartons and boxes across the room.  But that got old soon enough.  Crysis was great at first (better than I thought it would be) but I can't find anything to keep me coming back like I can with CoD4 and BF2.

I'm pretty sure our rigs are reasonably close to each others, so I don't think that is the problem.  ;)

I didn't mean you, I meant like, the other guy who is saying it's the most overrated game ever.

You can just do more in Crysis than you can in other games which is why I find it so fun.

I know you did, but I am in agreement with him for the most part.  It's not a bad game by any means, but many people are acting like it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.  Graphically, it's certainly one of the best around it just lacks a certain something gameplay wise to keep me around.

I don't think it's the best game ever -- but it sure is fun and does a lot of stuff other games don't do, especially on the 'Delta' difficulty.

Not you but others...

I guess it also should have been clarified if we were referring to single player or multi, or both.  Personally I haven't really played it single player so, what exactly does the delta difficulty do beyond make it harder?

My general thought was they tried to combine the tactical decisions of R6 with the vehicle/control point game play of BF2.  IMO, it really mix that well.

Then again, I don't care for Bioshock either so maybe I'm just abnormal.
