Crysis 2 or Halo: Reach?

Post » Fri Jun 03, 2011 4:11 am

Just wondering what the public thinks? Do you like Crysis 2, or Halo: Reach better? I personally like the gameplay of Halo more, but the graphics of Crysis much more.

I think it's pretty ridiculous to judge a game you've played for what 3 days to a game you've been playing for the past 6months...

I got bored of Halo Reach, don't know why following the development of the game it was everything I had hoped for, looked great, campaign was superb, but multiplayer left me empty, not like Halo 3 which I played for 2years and nothing else. Don't know what it is, maybe it was the weapon class restrictions, or single suit modules =/

I'm still very much a Halo fan, can't wait to see where MS takes the franchise.

In a way it sort of is ridiculous. But, still, some poeple already have a high multiplayer rank and have beaten the campaign. They would have a good idea on if it's a good game or not.

Sure, but from experience, there are things you learn about a game over an extended period of time that changes your whole perspective on it. I remember in Halo 3 how frustrated I would get when killed by a sniper, but when I finally learned how to use a sniper rifle properly, oh the joy it brought me seeing my enemies ragdoll, or when I looked forward to Swords lol. If you had said Crysis 2 campaign Vs Halo Reach campaign, Homefront, Black Ops campaign etc then that would have made more sense.

I expect those people who have ranked high, are either limited edition owners or people that played the beta and demo and already understand the mechanics enough to dominate all the new players.

Yeah i know, really the only thing that changed for me during the game was rank, and the new armor. I learned how to use weapons a little better. I also played the demo and reached rank 10, and i have limited edition. I thought ranking in the demo was easier btw. I still think some people have managed to find the concept of the game already, and could answer this question. Others, they feel like they need to know the game more (such as me).

The thing is this early on certain people will race ahead ranking wise, but as everyone gets more games under their belts the whole communities experience raises, so people who were amazing at the begining will find tougher and tougher matches and will have to develop new strategies and tactics to win.

E.g during the demo I found that nobody uses the power jump midst gun fight, I've had hundreds of gun fights where I would engage, power jump right over the head of the enemy and they'd just spray wildly not knowing where I was. This is similar to the ninja jump in Halo 3, at first everyone falls for it, but then everyone wises up and figures it out.

I choose Crysis 1.

Halo Reach ruined the core halo game play I used to like so I sold my xbox 360 a week after I got it and Crysis 2 has.....issues.
