Not going to bother with this if it just ends up being "more of the same". I'll buy it if they add something new, some interesting gameplay mechanics, and something to shoot that isn't endless hordes of korean soldiers or annoying alien drones.

I definitely enjoyed Crysis, thus I'll be getting this.

Is this xp or standalone?

Only??? A shooter with 20 hours is pretty amazing, I doubt it will be that much.

its an expansion, so why would you ever call it crysis 2?

Slightly off topic but: Damn... I just got crysis and the gameplay is fucking awesome. I love the level design and the oponess of it too. I think the plots awesome (I'm sure pkc things otherwise). I think I would get crysis warhead even if it has no features (just new levels). Must admit... although I probably could do delta difficulty the game is MUCH more fun on hard.

I just finished the game again a few hours ago, and it wasn't as bad as I remembered. There's always that god awful alien spaceship level, but once you're through that, it slowly starts to get fun again. The last few levels are some of the best moments in the game.

One thing I do love about this game and never really noticed before now is how the feel and the gameplay completely change throughout the game. It starts off with that sandbox style gameplay, similar to far cry - run through jungles, improvise with what you have, approach a scenario from any angle you want. Then Towards the middle of the game or so it starts shifting toward a more linear cinematic type of gameplay. After you get out of the alien ship, you're pretty much just running for your life the whole time.

I completely agree with all you said. And except for the last boss I tought the aliens were pretty interesting. In most games aliens just look different from humans but fight pretty much in the same way, which is kind of boring.

And I love how in most of the first part of the game you can take your time and plan things out but then when you get out of the spaceship you just feel like you have to run the whole time and get the fuck out of there.

Run it I run it at 1920x1200 high settings 2xAA and its barely playable (dips to low 20s, avg 32 fps) so I really hope they optimize it.

Gameplay was pretty fun, storyline was okay (decent). I'd get it.
