Easily the best Crysis game from the story, to the action, and of course Psycho himself. too bad after this the game went in a pretty lame direction for 2 & 3, hopefully Crysis 4 will come back to its roots!

Warhead is straightforward. The future versions try to get too fancy with an already solid concept. Just enjoy creeping through the jungle on a mission!

(Playtime not representative of real hours; played on several other platforms.) A game I will forever consider great. I grew up with Crysis and this game is a welcome addition to the series. Really, this game is just Psycho's perspective of Crysis 1 after "Assault". I write this after what is probably not going to be my last playthrough, and hey - it only crashed once! Also, "vsync" in options is not really vsync - it's just a 60fps cap (Unless steam fps counter is lying to me) Do note that this is NOT a remaster. Crysis Warhead was not remastered, and honestly, it's probably for the better. Dialog is kinda awkward because it was written originally in Hungarian afaik. And, might I add, the Hungarian version of the game is absolutely BRILLIANT in terms of dialog. Unfortunately, they didn't capture the same magic in English, in that regard. There also appears to be some mistranslations whenever there was a Hungarian double negative. If you can understand Hungarian and can get your hands on a Hungarian version of the game, I highly recommend going for it. Regardless, highly recommend; must buy.

First playthrough review time. Crysis Warhead is a game set in the same timeframe as Crysis 1 but follows a separate protagonist's journey. The gameplay is quite similar, with some new in-game features which enhance gameplay. Despite not having a remastered version, Crysis Warhead still has excellent graphics that hold up well. The plot is intriguing, offering a parallel storyline to Crysis 1 but from a different perspective. Overall, Crysis Warhead is a very good game with an engaging plot, excellent graphics, and interesting gameplay. Note: To change in-game resolution follow the below steps. 1. Go to Documents\My Games\Crysis_WARHEAD 2. Edit game.cfg with Notepad 3. Change these settings to your desired resolution (Example: 1920x1080 as shown Below) r_Height = 1080 r_Width = 1920 4. Save the file.

The Crysis game is a good, I would even say high–class fantasy action movie. For those who love fiction, this game is a good option to take part in the hot events of the distant (or maybe not) future. Beautiful graphics, great sound effects, music, subtitles – all at a high level. The game has a wide range of control functions that are easy to remember and do not cause inconvenience when controlling the main character. The set of weapons is impressive: from small ones (pistols) to various shotguns, machine guns and even a nuclear cannon (rocket launchers). An interesting idea with a nanosuit and its functions, which significantly pushes the boundaries of the capabilities of those using this suit. According to the plot of the game, the main character will even have to fly a military aircraft and even engage in aerial combat. And of course, the main character (Nomad) will save the world by fighting aliens. The game is good and will not leave fans of shooters indifferent. ⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⣀⣤⣤⣄⣀⣀⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⢀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣄⡀⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⠄⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣄⠄⠄⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠁⠄⠙⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠄ ⠄⠄⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠄ ⠄⠄⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠈⢻⣿⣿⣿⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⠈⣿⢿⣟⠉⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠉⢻⡿⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⢰⠏⠄⠄⠄⠁⢠⣴⣷⣬⣶⣦⣄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⢸⠁⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠄⢀⠄⢀⡜⠄⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠁⣰⣾⣿⣾⣅⠄⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠈⠛⠛⠛⠁⠄⠄⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠄ ⠄⢣⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠠⢷⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣾⡟⠄⣿⠟⠋⠁⠄⠄⠄ ⠄⠈⢧⡀⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠈⠙⠿⣿⣿⣷⡾⠃⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄ ⠄⠄⠘⢿⣦⡀⠄⠄⠄⠄⠈⠛⠶⣿⣿⠟⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⠄⠙⢿⣶⣤⣀⣀⡀⠄⣠⠞⠁⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄ ⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠉⠛⠻⠿⠿⠛⠁⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄⠄
