HOLY SHIT IS THAT CRYSIS WARHEAD FOR $10? OMG SOLD SOLD SOLD!!!

Bought this two weeks ago for the same price from Amazon.

Don't care what anyone thinks. I loved it. Short, but awesome. Outside of the hour in the middle of a zero g mountain I loved Crysis, too. I have way too much fun sneaking up, shooting people, going into camo, running behind them, shooting them again, etc.

Plus few games give me good stories like these have. Like this one:
I had just blown a whole bunch of people up, as well as a two tanks, when I got a message to go to a flight control tower. Looking at my map it was like 3/4 of a mile away. So I grab an APC and drive, dodging tanks. I drive by plenty of rocket launchers making me think the game wants me to fight my way there, but eh... driving is easier. Until the APC is smoking near the tower. I jump out, run around a corner and cloak. A few troops round the corner and I pop them in the head. Meanwhile rockets keep whizzing by me. I run even further from the battle, behind a few buildings, and encounter a hummer. I cloak, put a bomb on the back, uncloak and blow it up with a smile. This brings more troops my way, so I throw a grenade, cloak, seek cover, pick off the survivor. Running to the tower I jump two stories onto a roof and snipe the two rocket guys and some of their friends. The area seems secureish, despite yelling, so I start climbing a huge ladder. Not smart; I should have wandered first to see who was where or if there was a better method of reaching the goal. 5 or 6 guys are behind me shooting as I climb this huge tower. Even though I'm on hardcore, though, they can't kill me. Their bursts take me to 19 or so health but then the regen kicks in. I should have died, but I'm not questioning it. I get to the top, see that there was a staircase (doh!) throw a claymore on it so no one can come behind me, then pick off the dudes at the bottom of the ladder.

It was about 15 minutes of chaos I was orchestrating. And it was awesome. Even if the game is too dumb to let me look directly up which almost stopped me from advancing at one point.

Good FPS games give you great stories about dumb choices you made and how you made them work. These are good FPS games.
