Sometimes there is one extremely good element of a videogame that carries the a pretty average alright game to something that stays in your mind for a while.
For Crysis 2 its the music, and ofcourse, its the genius of Hans Zimmer at play. The soundtrack of this game absolutely SELLS it. You feel the desperation, the badass moments, the against the odds vibe of the game.
And the game surrounding it is quite good too. It is not necessarily groundbreaking, but it works well. You can absolutely feel the predator like power of the nanosuit in the gameplay. Alcatraz burns through enemies with ease and efficiency and its a blast playing as him.
Crysis 2 ofcourse looks gorgeous, being a Crysis series game. Making my modern PC chug at high settings but optimized well enough that all you notice is a drop in framerate while a worse looking game at medium setting can crash and burn due to bad optimization (ahem ahemCOD Advanced Warfare ahem).
Overall, if you ignore the furore over it not being crysis 1 when it released, Crysis 2 is a very good time. It doesnt do anything special except having the genius of Hans Zimmer, but it absolutely gets the blood pumping and is a ton of fun.
Give it a try!
