The interactivity in this game was insane for the time.

"Halo had the alien guns, don't you want to be cool like Halo?" Sounds like your trying to peer pressure someone into drugs lmao

There aren't enough games that let you feel like a powerful badass this way. Like there are tons where you just are outright but...that's boring, it's much more fun when you can do it in your way, whether you want to stealth around and punch everyone to death without being seen or throw cars and shit at everyone like the Hulk it's up to you. The sense of freedom the game has is great too, wish we got more shooters like that which weren't just a massive map of endless boring tasks, just give me stuff to destroy if I want to and that's it.

It also had really great physics, the gameplay wasn't revolutionary but it's still better than most shooters that are coming out now

God I loved crysis. Not just for the grayficks. The physics were actually really decent though. You could smash up most of the buildings and they'd collapse and shit. Grabbing a dude and yeeting him through the building was pretty dope.

"Graphics are more important than gameplay" That's what most of modern AAA game devs seem to believe.

it was the first alien game in a long time where the aliens werent just wierd looking dudes with a gun

I like how you went into "cloak mode" with a flashlight on in broad daylight.

love how you forgot to remove your flashlight in the first level. Yes the enemies WILL react to you waving a flashlight beam all over the place Edit: he forgot to detach it in the second level as well

Lol, that sheer happiness at 4:37 when the damn thing actually rolled is exactly why I love this channel.

Miß the days of randomly being able to carry enemies halfway across the jungle.

Played this game for the first time while really stoned I finished it in one sitting and remember like none of it

Crysis was lightening captured in a bottle. I had a good time playing the single player, I wish I got to play the MP more.

15 years later, and I bet those frogs I threw are still spinning through space.

Aliens were pretty cool in first Crysis, and I really liked the later segments of the game. But tbh the game was stellar when you were shooting people.

My man's here has kept me entertained through my COVID quarantine. I just found his channel a couple days ago and I've watched almost the entire back catalog

Imagine using stealth and leaving your flashlight on.

Not gonna Lie Crysis 1 And Warhead was the damn Best games or should I say The legendary games.

The worst bit wasn't even the aliens. It was the awful VTOL flying bit. See, Oboe was so traumatised from that bit he didn't even include it in the video.

The funny thing is, Crytek did the "turn-the-game-into-boring-corridor-shooter-at-halfway-point" thing twice... original Far Cry was just like Crysis. Looked great, you were stalking around an island killing mercs, open world etc etc... and then halfway point of game, mutated monkeys with rocket launchers show up and suddenly you in a lame-ass corridor shooter. Same with Crysis 1... awesome Predator-simulator for first third of the game, 2/3rds of the game are sadly, linear corridor alien shooter.

I really lilked the aliens in Crysis. They were interesting in 1 and warhead but far from perfect and their role could be filled in by the more interesting nanosuit koreans and human enemies in general. With their vast number of vehichles and weaponry as well as guerilla tactics they were quite fun to fight and you could get creative with your tactics on taking them out. Despite this I still think Crysis 1 is overall the least brilliant in the trilogy. The human enemies in the sequels just felt so much more natural and were a breath of fresh air because they weren't as frustrating to fight against. I feel like the 3rd game had the best variety of enemies but was unfortunately enough the easiest in the trilogy. If they would amp up the difficulty some more then we would get a real good game. Hopefully we see that in Crysis 4. But seriously if you are in the Crysis community we love the ceph. In the 2nd game they are very good because they adapt to New York's enviroment excelently and take advantage of their superior technology to outsmart you. Allthough they are fun to fight in cloak there is a slight problem with the small amount of unique types. In the 3rd game there are the most types that are absolutely amazing and along with the mines, sentries, pingers and the hacking system in general it makes the 3rd game the best in the series despite lacking nanosuit enemies like the 2nd game and having an average difficulty. So no, the Aliens definitely aren't bad. It's only a loud minority that overly dislike them.

I must be that one other person who liked the aliens in Crysis.

The streams for these were great!

love hid channel. played all the games i could have played growing and did play growing up!

My first experience with this game was being utterly blown away by how good it looked in 2007 and then realizing my 256mb 8400GS could not get above 5 fps on low everything

I personally loved the aliens, after a couple hours terrifying soldiers as the invisible hulk it was a nice change of pace having me be the one being hunted

This game got a standalone TC mod called Mechwarrior: Living Legends. Probably 1 of the best & brightest Mechwarrior games out there in terms of scale

1's second half is why I liked 2 better, there's better pacing regarding threat escalation.

This entire series was a blast

I'm the one guy who doesn't work for crytech

I was one of the naïve hopefuls that bought Crysis on release, thinking that my PC that chugged playing Serious Sam would be able to play it. First time I was actually able to play the game was 4 years later when it got re-released on the Xbox 360 lmao PS: The tank section is the greatest tank section in a video game ever made.

I WILL NOT STAND FOR CRYSIS SLANDER!

Me: considers Crysis 2-3 and comics not canon in my fanprojects' utilization of Crysisverse

I'm so mad I didn't find your channel sooner

The blacksite area 51 song for cloak was a nice touch.

Yeah I guess I'm person 3 who likes the aliens. I just really liked their whole vibe and the scifi fun stuff of how their tech is based on reversing entropy (taking energy from the environment to power their tech, thus supercooling it and using that offensively!). Then in the sequel the aliens are just Ugly Halo Guys with lasers...? Crysis honestly avoided so many cliches (interesting instead of same-ish aliens, just some guy in supertech instead of superhero legend jesus supersoldier, random tropical island instead of monuments destroyed, etc.) that the sequel just ate the hell up... :/ I never played the 3rd one because they were just "hey everything is bows now".

I thought only dunkey could make a good crysis video and here i am watching you.

Your titles never miss lmao

Nice. Always a good day when u post a new video. Thank you

6:50 number one is how the rain goes right through the umbrella

People talk ill about this game, but I thoroughly enjoyed it myself

I remember all the hype when the game was first showcased. Played on release and it's still one of my favourite game series, but I really liked the sequels more. They offered more polished and focused gameplay. Crysis 3 still looks amazing.

the first line got me to watch the whole video. and i read it in the subtitles when you hover over a video. 10/10 although I am docking 10 points for having to watch the Crysis aliens

Your videos are a ton of fun

Love that Randy Johnson clip. He does photography now and his company logo is a dead bird with feathers flying off it.

Crysis 2 was the first one I played. I loved roaming the destroyed streets of New York and blasting C.E.L.L soldiers and aliens. Sneaking around and being an absolute tank. The music was my favorite aspect of the game. Hans Zimmer did a nice job...even if it's similar to Batman and Transformers. 😂

It's Me, the likes the alien parts guy; it's way better than it has any right to be and comes totally out of left field. The change to weird aliens, gravity shenanigans, and snow was awesome and I love the level inside the alien ship.

I used to play this game every time I went to Best Buy shit was insane looking back in the day.

Oboeshoes is just a science fiction series about a hero who is chasing general badguy but he keeps escaping to new games.

0:58 pickup truck with sick back fire must be turbo

All these years and I never even bothered to see if you could grab the aliens

I washn't expecting that nuclear deterrent pun

I played Ryse Son of Rome and it did in fact have the ability to shoot a truck untill it explodes

To be honest. You can punch a tree to break it and throw it so hard to kill someone. and then flip a car with a strong ass punch to blow up a car, and THEN decide to fuck around EVEN MORE so you go into the in game editor and just do crazy things. You cant do this in valorant, and warzone...or something

It wasn't the graphics. It was the fact the devs gave you the ability to use all the tools how you saw fit. 👌

This commentary here was brilliant!

good one oboeshoesgames

mfg its so true that everyone hated the alien aspect of the first Crysis games then they just decided that was the formula from then on... ill never understand it

Cloaking with your flashlight on is kind of hilarious

I like how he uses cloak but with the flashlight on

this sure is a good video of Halo: The Master Chief Collection (2014)

This is the earliest I’ve ever been to a video

I love the aliens as much as I love Oboe.

1:03 Uhm... Did you actually forget to take off the flashlight attachment? Or are you taunting us old school Crysis veterans?

Still remember the title theme of the second game going a lot harder than it had any right to.

I remember when this came out i was hyped for it and ig the newer games are pretty good. But this is the classic for me.

This is the first time I’ve ever heard that there were aliens in this game

"Why wont this truck explode!!" 'Liquid nitrogen' clearly written on it..

Remember when Crysis 2 introduced that ledge grab game mechanic? First time I saw that one.

I remember Korn put out a single for this game.

I find it hilarious that another gamebreaking bug happened on the final level like what happened to me yesterday playing this for the first time. I got to the final boss and can't kill it because the checkpoint loads saying I already blew up the hatch and I can't lock onto it with the TAC gun so i can't finish the game now. And this is on the remaster.

They won’t be expecting the pick up cause they’re looking for a Tahoe

The aliens represent the reverse-engineered alien technology they used to make this game

The alien weapons in 3 slap

Played it recently at max difficulty for unknown reasons,around october,crahsed 6 times just where you did on the last fight,i just watched the cutscene on yt fuck that. Amazing game.

I feel the same way bro.... 1st half great... when the aliens showed up I didn't even bother finishing the game.

Crysis is more than visuals the gameplay is great

Requesting you play Cabella’s Dangerous Hunts! It’s a fun hunting game

On one hand, yes, a lot of people value graphics very highly. This is one of the reasons many won't play older games, no matter how praised they are. On the other hand, Minecraft.

"You want guarantees? Buy a toaster"

Also that Turtles can be a weapon.

>shooting a tank labelled Liquid Nitrogen >why isn't it blowing up reeeeee

I love that the video is listed as a Halo video.

Got this on EA play once it was pretty fun

the new wonderlands class specialises in corrosion

Look on the bright side, the aliens for the rest of the series just became robo squid human enemies instead of the annoying flying gun busses they used to be.

Nuclear detergent was clever 😂

i see what you did there with the tree nice troll :)

Why wont the truck blow up?!?! Truck: Liquid Nitrogen

Art direction is above all else what makes a game to me

I don't think hotels have people who only fluff pillows.

God I love crysis

Can't wait for C2

I’ve had this game downloaded for so long but have never played it, i have a series X so im hoping it will look really good

The irony in with crisis is that the whole first section can just be ignored

I'm surprised they still not fixed the last level crash bug, it makes the game unbeatable. The workaround if you always get crash on last level is really easy, just add -dx9 on your launch option/parameter. It will force to play at directx9.

Was the cloak theme from the 2003 Hobbit video game???

Snow biome fighting aliens? Game crashed? Randy Pitchford is subconsciously sending you signs to play Borderlands.

What made this game so great was all the Custom Maps and Mods people made. Don't like the second part of Crysis with the focus on the Aliens? Well then just play one of thousands of custom maps people made and a lot of them were actually good designed and with unique ideas. Unfortinately many of them got lost through time when Crytek restructured their webpage and with all the mod websites closing. Also ever since Crysis 2 they were just desperately chasing trends to the point of them almost going bankrupt.

I was thinking about downloading Crysis for the first time. But after this review, I'm going to go watch a review.
