Wow, what fun.I'm no noob, either, and have probably bought every major title to hit the shelves in the last 25 years. While the game may boast some great technical marvels, the draconian DRM (copy protection) prevents the game from being installed in many cases. A visit to EA's website reveals an unfriendly interface that yields nothing of value. That process will take about 30-40 minutes per attempt. Why even bother talking about the game itself. You are basically left to your own devices to figure out the problems - which are many.
This is BY FAR the worst copy protection scheme I have ever seen, even considering the debacle called STEAM. The support in this situation is exactly none. Oh, and did I mention I am a 3D game consultant too. The installer often fails meaning you have to revert to some very esoteric ways to get the product installed. You are then rewarded with the activation attempt, only to find it fails, too, and proceeds to delete the binary (main program) which prevents any more attempts unless you de-install and re-install. The people who shipped this should be flogged with a rope stacked with these worthless DVDs.
Do yourself a favor and pass on this $30 coaster.
You only buy the rights to install it a few times. That is going to take up tons of room and slow your computer down. DO NOT buy this game. What if you replace a piece of hardware on your computer like a graphics card or motherboard. Do some research on malware to see why you don't want it on your computer.There are plenty of amazing and fun games out there that don't have DRM or SecuROM. After that you throw it in the trash. You will have to leave ALL of them installed on your computer at the same time in order to prevent having to reinstall them.
These games WILL NOT work as soon as the activation servers are shut down. Actually, you literally can't buy it. Being able to install, uninstall, and reinstall games is what makes many of them long lasting titles. Don't think you'll ever even install it five times. What if you get a new computer.Suppose you'll never do any of those and you buy a bunch of SecuROM games. That could mean you only have a few years to play this game before it is trash forever.Also, SecuROM is basically malware. Go get them instead since you actually buy the game forever, not just the right to use it a few times.
Great game. Astonishing graphics, almost the same role play than the previous one, but still an interesting new playground. A must have game. Specially if you got the 1st oneDVD1 single playerDVD2 multiplayer
A definite must have for any FPS gamer.Whatha"What the. In Crysis Warhead there are new explosive you can use to blow up enemy vehicles and a few new weapons to fire.
Rosenthal heading back to the island to continue the fight. The first game Crysis leaves you with a movie sequence showing Nomad, Psycho and Dr.
Overall, excellent story line and missions I enjoyed every minute of it even after playing it twice through on Delta difficulty. When I saw that I was ready for more action, but sadly that is where the game ended.
Enter Crysis Warhead, continuing the story line, but now from Psycho's perspective - the British member of Raptor squad. The main draw for me was the story line and the action.

Yet another reason for me not to buy another EA game. Clear your temporary files folder, turn down the DirectX audio quality as low as possible and run the game in "best performance" mode.
Crysis Wars, not so much so. The biggest problem is that the game is almost impossible to run on anything better than "good performance" mode.
Crysis Warhead is pretty decent. The game becomes VERY unstable and crashes randomly.EA Support's solution.
Having 1GB of GPU memory, 4GB of RAM & a Quad core CPU running at 3.6GHz, one would think that you could crank up the quality. Not so.
In other words, run the game in the crappiest mode possible and stop bothering them because the software is unstable which would lead one to surmise that the programming is poor at best. UbiSoft games never game me the problems I've had with EA brand games.
