Haha that would be an interesting read.
Crazy what they did with it, it's a very weird figure because it's on one side venerated for its graphics but on the other side laughing stock cause there's no point on releasing a game no-one can play. xD
Personally, when I could finally play it, I enjoyed it very much. I must have gone through it at least 6 or 7 times, with and without mods. Really loved it and the expansion because of the non open world freedom... you can play it in an infinite different ways.
I thought Crysis 2 sucked, all on rails, just wanted it to be over... and I hear 3 is a bit better so I'm bound to try it some time.
So I kind of agree it's the best, even not having played 3. :D
