Outstanding early, Bad late
I replay Crysis & its Warhead expansion annually, it's still that good—thank you Crytek for this & Far Cry. If I ever get tired of it, there are some great mods to try.
I won't repeat other reviewers' descriptions. The first 2/3 is an outstanding open-world multi-choice experience—each replay I try to remember what I did last year, and look for an alternative this time. Warhead mirrors this part of the game.
I've only played the last 1/3 of the game once, just to complete the game. Very different experience, which I do not enjoy at all—much more of the closed-world on-rails guns blazing in other popular games I don't like. But the first 2/3 is so good, it's still a 5-star game.
Tech quality is also outstanding, both gameplay & interface, it's obvious it was made for PC first.
If you like strategic & tactical choices in an open world environment, Crysis & Warhead are still top choices.
