  A must have for any high end pc gamer

  by tyco49 on September 26, 2005

  Pros: Graphics, gameplay, length, AI, multiplayer, realism

  Cons: physics, no cool mods

  Summary: This is definately one of the "must-have" games for the PC. Great graphics and gameplay make it an amazing experience. The setting and plot are unique and combine sci-fi and ...

  Summary: This is definately one of the "must-have" games for the PC. Great graphics and gameplay make it an amazing experience. The setting and plot are unique and combine sci-fi and realism. I find I get more hours out of this game than HL2 and the multiplayer is far superior. The only drag is the physics, once I shot a fish that I had blown out of the water with a grenade and it flew into the sky. Explosions are nice but cannot compair to HL2. I still believe that anyone owning a highj end pc should have this game. 2 thumbs up!

  Gorgeous and Fun

  by SPARTAN VI on August 3, 2005

  Pros: Still one of the best looking games there is, amazingly fun.

  Cons: Multiplayer stinks, hardware intensive, AI borders toddler intelligence, crygens suck.

  Summary: You haven't played this game until you played with it enabled (you'll need SM3.0 support- which means no ATi- and the command /r_hdrrendering 7).
  
  Very fun game-

  Summary: You haven't played this game until you played with it enabled (you'll need SM3.0 support- which means no ATi- and the command /r_hdrrendering 7).
  
  Very fun game- ragdoll physics, per poly hit detection w/ decals upon impact (can make for some gruesomely blood deaths), vehicles, awesome weapon selection, gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous.
  
  Too bad the infant AI keeps you grounded in reality, crygens are very annoying, and the multiplayer doesn't live up to the single player.

  What a game!

  by LoopBack on June 27, 2005

  Pros: What a game!

  Cons: You can save games only at given checkpoints. Need a top of the line graphic card.

  Summary: I'm not a heavy gamer, but as soon as you start this one, you realize it is going to set a new standard. Much like Red Alert at the ...

  Summary: I'm not a heavy gamer, but as soon as you start this one, you realize it is going to set a new standard. Much like Red Alert at the time, and then games like Myst, Half-Life etc.
  
  Go and buy this game. Give the people who made this game your money because:
  1. They deserve it.
  2. They should have money to go and develop more games like this one.
  
  
  btw, you can use a 'cheat' to save games at any point, but it's not as much fun.
  The last missions are very difficult. Remember that there is always more than one way to finish a task in this game. Try all sorts of different approaches.

  Great game, if only it worked on my pc

  by on January 12, 2005

  Pros: The game has outstandingly detailed graphics and sound and everything.

  Cons: The game came in the box when I bought my 300 dollar nVidia 6800 video card. Well, for some reason I get random graphical errors when I play the game, random bars going through the screen, which replaces missing textures in the non updated version. I ha

  Good Game but could be better

  by Oatmeal25 on July 21, 2006

  Pros: Beautiful, Good game play and AI

  Cons: Too much stealth action, high hardware requirements

  Summary: the story kind of lost me too. But overall it's a good game.

  Fun, challenging, great graphics.

  by marincat on July 14, 2006

  Pros: Challenging enough to keep you interested.

  Cons: Graphics hard to set.

  Summary: I have played many pc games and this one is just about my favorite. It is fast paced, exciting, challenging and different than many of the others.

  BEST game on the market today

  by on November 9, 2004

  Pros: Love the realism in the game (i.e. reloading, number of weapons that you carry, gun sway). Great weapons (sniper rifle) and tools (thermal goggles). Lots of extra touches like pictures and movable boxes. Cool player moves like proning and side looking.

  Cons: None really. Using version 1.1 and have only found one bug and no crashes.

  Best Single Player FPS To Date!

  by on October 27, 2004

  Pros: Interesting Story Line, will keep you wanting more. Graphics are the best I have seen so far (Better than Doom 3 in my opinion) IF you have a 3D card that can handle it. Sound effects are top notch, great selection of Weapons and Vehicles to Drive (I love

  Cons: Not Much, Other than maybe having to buy a better 3D Card but hey, we always need a better 3D Card :P Game Can be very tough at times but take it slow and don't rush. My Only Big Con is you cannot save the game when you want to, only when the Auto Save po

  I can't stop.....

  by on October 25, 2004

  Pros: Game auto sets the options to your machine for optimum performance. Even seens to run ok on 64mb ATI Mobility 9700 with 3.0 dell and 1 gig mem. Heart-pounding anticipation. Binoculars are a great idea.

  Cons: Difficult! Just keep trying, you'll get there!
