No, because despite six reviews which lacked any real praise, they still sent me the 8800 GT. Blackmail and bribes only work if you take away the incentive if your demands/conditions are not met. Attempted blackmail perhaps, but even then the fact they never do anything when their demands/conditions are not met means that it's a pretty poor attempt.

Becks, sorry I was going off the list price on Amazon. Still a nice freebie I'm guessing, and one that will appreciate in value? (Halo fanboys quite obsessive it seems).

GillsMan, what makes Crysis so great? Is it the "revolutionary physics engine that mimics real life"? The same engine that allows this? Or Maybe it the engine's ability to allow for realistic collision detection? That's probably why these branches are passing through the jeep, right? Maybe it's the fact the game is blatantly racist, making out that all members of the KPA are heavily retarded? They must be, because there's no way it can be shoddy AI, right? I mean, I'm shooting at all those guys, plus a tank and all this guy can do is stand next to me and watch, half asleep? I could go on and on, but I'm guessing I'm making my point fairly well here? It's just another FPS, incorporating some nice ideas it's lifted from about six games from the last few years, all in one game. It just doesn't really pull them off all that well though.

cms, COD4 is brilliant, if not shockingly short in SP. It's online effort helps put it head and shoulders above the rest though, best FPS I've played this year, one of only two I'm still playing at this late stage. Quake Wars is the other.

Frankly, anyone who thinks that shouldn't be allowed to write reviews tbh. What utter tosh. Crysis clearly one of the best games this year. </BLOCKQUOTE>

Most people i know who have played the game agree with Gav, so clearly you're either a fanboy or an easily pleased window licker.

from those pics Crysis looks remarkably like S.T.A.L.K.E.R

that's bribery, they gave you some random money and stuff, you accepted. Thats a done bribery.
Doesn't matter what happened before or after, you are in a position that influences the well being (can't think of the right word) of the source that gave you the money.

e.g. say a person convicted of a crime gave money to a jury member. the jury member accepted, but didn't do anything to the person's favour. Oops, still bribery.

No you're missing the point. Basically this means if you ever disagree with other reviews, you can claim they were influenced by the gifts they received. And if you agree that a game is great then you don't mention it at all. It's ****ing magic.

ok to help me understand your post better, who is "you" in your post?

retired_may0gan

haha so this is what otf gets serious about. **** me

retired_el_chanclas

You have never seen a car in a tree?

Also, what difficulty are you playing it on (assuming those are your screenshots)?

I very much doubt that it's anything but "easy" mode. On delta you would can get whacked by a handful of koreans on their own, let alone the extra nano-suit guys and the tank/ifv shooting at you.

The game is much, much better on the harder difficulties. You can't just rush into a group of 30 koreans like that picture and blow them all away, and go "LOL IT'S JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER FPS ROFL WHAT A **** GAME".

Lycan seems to have gone into playing it with his mind already made up, "Corridor Shooter", "not ground breaking", "graphics making up for bad gameplay", and it appears every time he gets a small error he chalks that up as a huge negative.

As part of it's own "mini-mission". Never as a choice the player can make or ignore on their own.

Crysis has weapons customisable in both single player and multiplayer.

In what? Multiplayer. Of course that is. But try to snipe in COD4 SP when you should be using a shotgun and it's going to end badly.

I guess people like you would rather have their hand held and forced into doing exactly what the devs wanted you to do. I wonder of lycangav ignored that alot of the levels in COD4 have constantly respawning enemies whilst crysis is actually realistic with troops moving from other areas to re-inforce an area under attack.

I also am giving a big lols to that lycangav is still playing Quake Wars, an utterly terrible, massively overhyped and under developed game which I was luckily able to get back half the price on when I sold it last week.

really worried that you might not be taking the michael with that question.
