Crysis 3 reviews are go, all the scores here

I expected much higher than this.

Number 1 was great until the aliens showed up. Number 2 was epic and yea sure it was held back by console development but seriously the grand scale and epic battles in the streets, roof tops, etc, and the aliens this time actually looked good. Number 3 just looks like a cashin to me now.

Digital Spy, 4/5 http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/gaming/review/a459807/crysis-3-review-360-be-the-ultimate-predator-despite-some-flaws.html

Kotaku says “NO”.

I respect them. But what its worse… I believe them.

Completed it on Veteran in just over 6 hours; call me a cynic but that’s jut not long enough for a £40 game. Enjoyed it, and it looks incredible, but far too short :/

VideoGamer.com: 6/10

So Crysis 1 and Warhead were the best ones in the series so far… Lol.

In my opinion Crytek has gone to shit when console development started. They were always PC devs and they knew what was best for the platform.

Far Cry 1 was excellent, Crysis 1 was excellent, Warhead was decent but nothing spectacular. Warhead was more of a soulless addon to the first Crysis. At least gameplay was there.

Crysis 2 was SHIT and this one i’m still going to try out. I guess it is going to be the same POS as the second game but I loved the first game and previous Crytek games. I want to try it.

P.S. People who played say that it is a CoD game with dumbed down suit and ” “Follow there” missions” with stupid Console boss fights and small environments… Great Crysis game.

no matter what the scores are :-/

I’m not one for listening to critics, but damn I hate seeing scores so low. But then again, I’ll do what I always do and just buy/play it and judge for myself. Its got a bow, thats got to count for something! :p

AQnother fail from EA, another boring crysis

@4

And you didn’t rush through it? Cause i remember people saying the same thing about Crysis 2 back then, but it took my more than 10 hours to finish it. And i’m not a rusher, nor like a snail or anything. Normal pace

“Another wit-and-humourless jaunt through nonsensical plotting, dumb enemies, and prescribed action, with only glimpses of the series’ potential.”

after that being said i agree with Kotaku “NO”… this is not a game i am using my £40 on. maybe if it end up in the bargain bin for a 10′er next year i will have to rethink…

@11: How can you agree with Kotaku even though you have not played this game? You agree that Kotakus review is right after you read ANOTHER review?

Why are people so harsh on Crysis 2/3 even if their levels are much bigger and non linear unlike your scripted Killzone,Uncharted,Gears,MoH,BF,CoD… AND still looks amazing ?

A lot of 7/10 and 8/10 like scores. And that for sure dosn’t mean the Game is bad. Why are People today think that everything that is under 9/10 is total Shit? Its Curios.

@13, Uncharted, gears and BF are just better games in general.

@14, Because it’s a gaming industry. There are two scores: 7-8 and 9-10.

Gameswelt.de: PC 8/10, Console 7,5/10

cute

@12

i have played the demo and i have a friend that also work as a reviewer and he let me try the first level…

so i know what i am talking about, the game sucks and are not up to the standards i expect from a crytek game, nice to look at but that is all..

a lot of these reviewer that give good scores are just paid to give good scores…

So it’s not a bad game. Just an average one.

Never been able to get into the Crysis series.

7′s and 8′s are NOT bad scores by any means; they’re just underwhelming to most triple-A titles like this. It certainly looks good, but it just feels a bit too familiar. Probably get it when it’s $40.

I like this comment from Kirk Hamilton from Kotaku.com “This is it: The mediocre game that screenshots will sell.”

And he is probably spot on…

As expected,about the same as Dead Space 3 in terms of reviews.

@14: No, but most of the time not worth full 60€ price. Gaming is an expensive hobby.

meh i dont care bout any past the first game, it’s not one of those game series that continues to improve in story and gameplay….

Maybe whats his face should spend more time developing the game vs overly exaggerating how slow the current 7+ year old console hardware is and how “superior” PC as a platform is.

I just find it exceptionally humorous that this guy spends a crap ton of time, just as any other PC gamer tries to, in justifying spending a crap ton of money on instantly outdated PC hardware when the PS3/360 run the original Crysis. seeing as the original game brought even the most extreme PC hardware to its knees all the while the current HD game consoles run the same game being a couple years older. Not to mention the most current Crysis iteration is available for the PS3/360 as well.

know what they say, walk the walk if you talk the talk.

@23

The framerate on the console version drops to the LOW 20′s, making it almost unplayable. so it is junk and not worth full price for sure….

@13 Scripted as in what? crysis 2/3 pretty much is scripted, you go from A to B just to get a scripted cut scene and then repeat, pretty much like gears and killzone you fucking idiot

I saw some videos of the 360 version and the faces especially are just insane, how did they get this looking so damn good on such old hardware? It sucks about the framerate, but i heard it only happens now and then, definitely not a whole lotta times.

Looks really good from what I see. I loved Crysis 2 so am definitely getting 3.

The game will drop in 2 weeks in price. I will wait until it drops by $25 or more………..

how is anything above a 7 a bad score?

i dont get it.

its like a B in school grades, and all of us were more than happy with a B in school, arent we?

@10 DIdn’t rush through it, in fact played it quite stealthly and died quite a bit – but unfortunately it’s almost certainly 2-3 hours shorter than the Crysis 2. Framerate-wise it’s near perfect, certainly a hell of a lot better than 2, certainly not a deal breaker.

@26 Are you for real ? I was talking about size of level and option to go stealth or rambo style any time you want , and overall sandbox type level.

lol @ #24

You jealous much? Spot the wannabe PC gamer right there.

You know, not every PC gamer spends thousands on ‘instantly outdated hardware’, some of us just enjoy playing games in the form they were meant to be and with the settings that do them justice. Not only that but PC games tend to be cheaper (many are given away free on steam or sold on offer for half what they cost on console- say hello to Steam!). Besides, even if a game was a identical price on console or PC, who is getting better value for money? The guy with all his settings cranked up, or the one playing on hardware so old it can barely run the game?

Not everyone spends hundreds on their gaming rig each year you know. It isn’t necessary, you could quite happily run modern titles happily at sensible settings if you merely bought a new mid range graphics card every two years.

As for Crysis 3. I’ve pre-ordered it. Crysis 1 was very good but Crysis 2 wins for sheer accessibility and polish it feels more complete and less like a game only a PC nerd could play. Crysis 3 offering more of the same, and with even better graphics? Sold!
