  • Summary: In Crysis, gamers will travel to 2019 where a team of US scientists makes a frightening discovery on an island in the South China Sea. All contact with the team is lost when the North Korean Government quickly seals off the area. The United States responds by dispatching an elite team of Delta Force Operators to recon the situation. As tension rises between the two nations, a massive alien ship reveals itself in the middle of the island. Now with hope rapidly fading, the US and North Koreans must join forces to battle the alien menace, fighting epic battles through stunning, photorealistic tropical jungles and frozen landscapes.… Expand

    Despite its flaws, Crysis is, hands down, the best FPS to hit the Xbox 360 since The Orange Box and its port of the complete Half-life 2 that came out in way back in 2004.

    The absence of the PC version's multiplayer modes is a bummer, as is the removal of the penultimate mission from the original campaign. But by the time you reach the conclusion of this exciting bargain, you'll be too amped on adrenaline to care.

    It's aged very well and is a great addition to console. Shame about multiplayer, though. [Christmas 2011, p.92]

    The original PC version is still the best, but playing this on a console is quite an achievement.

    A truly spectacular game, one of the best this generation has seen. Admitidly it was better on the PC but still it's a story told masterpiece with A+ graphics. A must buy. 1 of only 7 games on the xbox360 i would genuinley give 10/10.… Expand

    Don't believe the low scores from PC Fanboys who are butt-hurt that their WONDERCHILD made it to consoles. Having played both versions, this is a great port. Beautiful graphics, and in some ways, superior gameplay (with the addition of suit functions mapped to the controller instead of an ability wheel). I'm able to do things in this version I couldn't do in the PC version because of the instant powers -- it just makes the gameplay smoother. The visuals aren't as good as the PC version running on High, but they're spectacular for a console game. The only real flaw with this version are some technical issues that distract slightly from the fun -- texture pop-in, lower draw distance. But don't believe the negativity... this is one of the best shooters ever made, and for $20, this is a steal. Just don't expect multiplayer. :P… Expand

    Crysis is finally on consoles but does it live up to it's PC counterparts? Yes and no. There's no multiplayer, but it's not priced as a whole game so that's not too disappointing. The graphics look great, but there's a lot of glitches as well. Enemies have awkward animations and sometimes they just flat out disappear. The combat is fun, but I found myself running out of ammo often and having to rely on meleeing enemies to death, which was actually quite fun when you use the stealth feature. For $30 though, you can't really complain. It's still more fun than most FPS on the market, and it definitely is better than Crysis 2.… Expand

    A level missing, glitchy graphics, 5 years late, bugged to hell and no multiplayer - and they expect us to pay more than the superior PC version now costs? A good lesson on how to make easy money from idiots.… Expand
