Man, just finished "Crysis". The ending was pretty good, and it was challenging, but not impossible.

I did have to savegame pretty often so I wouldn't have to play the same segment over and over again.

The ending was the worst part of the game.

I started to hate the game once it went from fighting the Koreans to aliens and bullshit.

I forgot that I had to exit the game twice to check online for walkthroughs because I got stuck toward the end. Come to think of it, the gameplay was not too gamer-friendly.

Good thing that we have walkthroughs posted online.

I might get Crysis when I get a better PC, or juts get it on xbox.

Or better yet endulge yourself with Far Cry 2 and drive around for miles and get randomly attacked every 2 minutes.

You should try the fun that Cryengine2 Sandbox offers.

I have come to the conclusion that Crytek are just not good at making games.

Crytek have loads of excellent programmers, but they suck at game design.

Far Cry 2 music is better than Crysis. The Crysis soundtrack sound very generic and not at all memorable.

Game design and mapping is everything that makes a game fun. Valve excels at level design, and that's why their games are outstanding.

Plus, I have a feeling that Crytek doesn't playtest their games sufficiently. There are always a lot of bugs and non-intuitive moments in the game that cause the player to get stuck.

I liked crysis, but I did become disinterested around the point with zero gravity. It was a good effect, I just got fed up with following whatever it was that I was doing then. I started a new game on maximum difficulty, now that was a challenge! Fighting koreans (everyone prefers the first half of the game) but on such a hard difficulty you have to sneak around very carefully and use tactics constantly. It reminded me of metal gear solid having to be such a ninja.
