    Looks like more of the same. I'd like to see something a little more exiting.

    I thought Warhead was an expansion for Crysis. (Playing as "Psycho" and what he saw during the battle)

    Storm, you should know, I barely ever know what the hell I'm talking about.

    I was thinking the same exact thing. It looks like Crytek just took the same game and just changed the main character along with the a different angle on the same story. ::YAWN::

    yeah, and they are threatening to go away from pc exclusive if they have the same number of pirates of the game. so if you want it buy it. Because I think games are so much better when they are pc exclusive. more work is done for detail and such.

    Piracy has nothing to do with Crytek's lackluster sales and everything to do with them making ****ty games.

    Let me guess, you found that article on Digg.com? I believe it was 20:1 ratio of people who bought it and pirates. I don't blame people who illegally download stuff but I do think that if you thoroghly enjoy that game you should support that devoloper. But on the flip side, devolopers shouldn't charge 60 bucks for a video game so they kinda encourage people to pirate media and software. I think valve has the right idea, 5 awesome games for 40 bucks. Make the games affordable and realistically prices then people would buy them.

    Piracy discussion aside, lets break this in simple terms.

    Valve never complains about piracy. Valve makes great games.

    Other devs do complain about piracy. And it's always the ones making crappy games.

    Correlation? Pattern? I think so.
