Crysis 2

First Person Shooter.

The Good.

It's not what you think it's going to be. I thought another brainless halo knockoff but actually there are some really clever elements to this game. There is a lot of stealth involved and there are many options for completing missions which are presented through the visor either full out frontal assault(not recommended) or more stealthy thoughtful options. The AI is good as well making enemies interesting to take down. There are a variety of enemies as well from aliens to soldiers and they require different ways to take them down. There are a lot of weapons to keep things interesting and quite a good plot. The suit itself is great you can armour up for periods of time or turn invisible which is great fun.

The Bad

It takes a little while to get into I didn't realise the capacity for playing the game in different styles because the instructions aren't very explicit. It could do with more of a tutorial opener even though for some gamers it's painful.

As the levels progress the enemies get harder to kill but not really any smarter which can get frustrating.

The Rating.

If you want a futuristic shooter it's a good one. Will test your brain and your aim.
