Now I'm intruiged. What singleplatform fps is better then? (With practically every shooter being multiplat...)

Catballs:
And no, Cry games have never really impressed me. Crysis graphics are sweet. Farcry looked like a plastic island to me though and the gameplay of either didn't really catch on for me.

Not to bothered either way with this one I'm afraid

Maybe, but there's so many good looking games coming out this year i can't decide (seriously look up a games release schedule it's horrendous/beautiful).

I liked Far Cry, but felt upset when you reached the horrible indoor levels. However Far Cry 2 seems to be fixing this by removing indoor things and zombie monkeys leaving what appears to be combat where wit and strategy are valued highley. It's like the stand-up imrpov of FPS gaming. ^^

Yeah, it looks good, but how many games these days look great and turn out to be shit on a disk?

People are going to disagree with me on this. However, I maintain that its correct, mainly because I can't recall any other FPS's coming out this year (seriously, what was there?)

Resistance 2.
DING DING DING! Although I must admit, If I was to describe my feelings for Far Cry 2, it would probably be something along the lines...

OMFGITGOODLOOKSAMAZIN!

The big pickle with the other games was the mutants and aliens and that it aged very badly. They claim that this doesn't have a bullshit storyline and is going for a more realistic tone. The massive problem with crysis was that it was to much for most graphics cards to handle. Since this is also for the ps3 and xbox 360 that should not be a problem.

Is gears 2 out this year? If so it'll be in contention. And Call of Duty: world at war...lol.

Personally I think FarCry 2 will be better than Resistance 2 because I'd much rather have the ability to fight mercenaries in my Humvee while going gun ho with my M16 on one level and then fighting ninja style with a blowpipe on the next. One of the things that makes me really want Far Cry 2 is the ability (or atleast it says it has this ability) to do anything you're way. I love that choice in games. I'm not sure if Resistance 2 gives these choices but from what I've heard it will not.

Fallout 3 will be better though.

Gears is not an fps...
He's right on this one.
Although what about the new Red Faction?
The BETA is amazing!but its kinda half TPS half FPS, a bit like oblivion..
does that still count?

I'm much more looking forward to Stalker: Clear skies.
Admittedly, Crysis does require some serious optimisation for it to work on affordable hardware. The mod Cuban Ultima Doom Swords Custom Crysis Config does go along way to address this issue. Hopefully, crysis:warhead has been tuned to run efficiently.
