    It had by far the best music imo as well.

    The MP Beta is real fun. Most video game stories suck anyway, so that won't bother the majority. The textures and environments (two separate things) are much improved.

    PS, GTA V is in San Andreas again.

    How do they expect us to buy a game with a feature like the bow weapon.? Or if that is not the biggest feature stop advertising it. Anyway I saw they game, they claim new graphics but it looks like a regurgitated crysis 2.

    Long live the original CRYSIS!!!

    Glad someone agrees! I don't get it though, Crysis was fresh, new, it was a proper sandbox and had (and still has) some of the greatest graphical effects in its day, now Crysis 2/3 is just another CoD but your in a suite that "gives you the edge". Why does that sell more than a proper "free to do what you like" shooter like the original?

    Only things I can think of is:

    - People don't like AI that can genuinely outsmart the player
    - People don't like having to "think" about what to do and where to go, but rather shoehorned down a corridor
    - People don't like deliberate limitations of the nano suite to make it a challenge but rather it just replenished power almost instantaneously

    You know I think it's because of the fast pace arcade action feel that CoD has. They also do a good job to make it compelling with the different perks and they way you feel like a bad *** when you get kill streaks.

    Teens Love this stuff. I know if I was a teen I would be drooling all over it. I played CoD black ops when it came out and to me it felt short to the features bf2 had. I also played bf3 on my friends ps3 and it was really boring, maybe because of the frame rates. How ever we have a blast playing bf3 on my pc.
