Noone could be masochistic enough to regard Kayne and Lynch 2 as average...except Yahtzee perhaps. Lets be honest as consign it to the pile of festering dog turds where it rightly belongs.
Nothing about graphics in the review? Is that a sign that Crysis has matured... or something else?

That's pretty funny. Glad to see I'm not the only one who has issues with some of the Captcha images.
Good review, and I heartily agree that finding out Alcatraz was basically a wreck under the suit was the coolest part of the story. Interestingly enough it was also the only part of the story I actually remember...
And I too cloaked my way through the last group of enemies. I didn't even notice the game was winding down, it just ended all of a sudden.

Ah, triple A games, thank you. Thank you so much for pumping out more and more of these fetid pustules to be ripped apart by Yahtzee every Wednesday every week for my own personal amusement. Never change, you corporate driven, money-grubbing, genre-blind confused moles, you. Never change. XD
I love Crysis 2. Second game I've bought at launch and the first good decision I've made for several years.
I read an interview before Crysis 2's release that said that New York City was chosen as the setting for the game because, well, that's what everyone else is doing. More specifically because it's a familiar setting for action... "literature". And anything with an alien in it.
So yeah, Crytek set it in New York City knowing that it's a... common setting on purpose, to add familiarality.

glad some1 mention the inexplicable lack of nanosuits in the world where aliens have invaded and the previous mook with a nanosuit single handily beat them back with it. You think the world would make more of them eh? XD
I loved this game, so I'm glad to see a positive review. I'm happy to see a mention of how the game balanced power with fragility. This applies across all aspects of Crysis 2, from cutscenes to gameplay. Many times I've been shredded before I could blink, but at the same time I knew it was usually my fault for not using my suit enough.
That said, the giant Hunter (from Halo)-esque Ceph are BULLCRAP. They always read my cloak when I try to sneak past, they're impossible to handle without rockets or heavy cover, they shred you in seconds if they see you and they constantly fire rockets in your general direction EVEN IF YOU ARE CLOAKED and don't stop firing, and they often appear with loads of minions.

Great game and the multiplayer has a great mix of twitch as well as strategy in managing your suit's energy level. CoD is to easy to get killed and is all twitch, and Halo takes about 1,000 rounds to kill someone because of the shields and armor. Crysis 2 has the perfect mix of each.
Yatzee is starting to warm up to games, he isn't completely ripping holes in every last thing he plays. What is the world coming to
