got 2 games: Crysis and Rainbow 6 Vegas 2.
im still deciding about R6V2, for reasons i will say, but i will talk about Crysis.
Crysis-
Crysis is so much better than Crysis Warhead.
the reason? its a real sandbox game. Warhead was more linear, thats probably why i didnt like it as much, but i will say, running like heck from a chopper and a dozen KPA soldiers, low on ammo and no more rockets is a BLAST. im having so much fun, running through the brush, diving under water, jumping into the random truck to try to evade the enemy, and i especially love sneaking up to a KPA patrol with cloak enabled and hitting them with a shotgun. pure SWEETNESS.
strangely enough, Crysis runs better than Warhead did.
the AI is intelligent, and i can no longer run and gun, as i did with Warhead. running and gunning will kill me. for sure.
anyways, i strongly recommend Crysis to anyone who has the system to play it.
Rainbow Six Vegas 2-
this is a much more mixed review.
i got this because it was only $5 on steam, so i said "why not?"
well, when it finally finished downloading, i booted it up, and when i got to the single player laoding screen, it froze, then crashed. i tried again, and it gave me a BSOD. i lowered my sound acceleration, which made it work, but by now i was having second thoughts.
then i got into the game, and it truly is a wonderful game, intense, hard, and very enjoyable. i still get crashes, and once i got the infamous "General Protection Fault" error, but for now it went away.
multiplayer is also very fun, and the ACES system and the ranking system is also very interesting.
i especially love how you can trip up your character any way you want to.
so for me, its a love-hate relationship. when it works, its a blast, when it doesnt, i just go back to Crysis.
