Product Description Take on the fight as the volatile Sergeant "Psycho" Sykes in a new parallel story taking place during the events of Crysis. Psycho's secret mission will take him to the other side of the island on a ruthless pursuit of a North Korean general hell-bent on obtaining powerful technology. With the versatile powers of his Nanosuit and an arsenal of fully customizable weapons & vehicles at his disposal, Sykes will do whatever it takes to carry out his top-secret objective. Action on the other side of the island is more intense, the battles are fierce, and the mission protocol is no longer "Adapt to Survive". As Sergeant Sykes, now you must adapt to dominate the battle. Twin SMG's blazing, seizing new vehicles, or going stealth, the action and the victory is on your terms.

I just finished Crysis Warhead today. My girlfriend gave it to me a few days ago.Disclaimer, I already have SecuRom (unannounced) on my computer from a previous software installation so in no way am I condoning that "copy protection" scheme because I have loaded and played this game. Players will have to decide for themselves if they want to load/boycott SecuRom games. You will need to determine if the entertainment value of Crysis Warhead is worth the possible trouble SecuRom may cause. For the record, I do not like SecuRom at all. But this game is very good.It would be nice if Amazon reviewers confined their remarks to the actual game play of Crysis Warhead and not to the controversial SecuRom. Please do not spam me, Spore me, or boar/bore me with SecuRom complaints or discussions. There are forums elsewhere established to handle that. Basically we already know SecuRom is bad, likely illegal, and evil so why keep repeating it here. Amazon wants game reviews here. If you haven't played the game then I feel it is unfair to post a review. Your cause is just but not for proclamation here.1. First, I had allot fun playing this relatively short (6-8 hrs) fps in single-play. The game comes with two dvd's and one is for multiplay on 21 new maps. I don't multiplay someone can assist us on that.2. The installation went better than original Crysis but it is still a bit tricky. I had to insure that my desktop resolution setting was the same as my chosen game resolution. Had to use 75 refresh rate, 60 wouldn't work. I used a moderate 1440x900 setting and at the 2nd highest graphics feature (named "Gamer'). Closed all apps and made sure firewall was either turned off or "Warhead" enabled. Loaded latest Nvidia drivers.3. Internet connection required for game activation. Bunch of crap.4. Much smoother frame-rate and play than original. Experienced only a couple of crashes and Microsoft blamed Nvidia drivers.5. Spectacular graphics for flora, water, cut-scenes. Great music and sounds for action, weapons, vehicles. Should have had more animals. Only remember some rats and a butterfly or two.6. I had the play set on "easy" and I'd recommend a higher setting for more intense and challenging shoot-outs, and fire-fights... of course better AI for enemies.7. Good voice acting, especially for main British character, Psycho. Korean voicing abt. same as in original...weird and humorous.8. Nice variety of weapons with enhancements for scopes, flashlights, lasers, tactical, grenade launchers, silencers, incendiary bullets. Sounds, hits, explosions, fire real nice.9. Monsters still not that hot or varied but convey the intended story. End monster not as lethal or hard to kill as original.10. Good use of checkpoints and save/quick load anywhere.11. More vehicles (humvees, Eager Beavers, armored Bradley-type, tanks). Many are driveable and with guns. Especially satisfying to blow up vehicles.12. Nano suit still good for armor, strength, speed, cloak, weapon enhancements. Seemed way smoother in function and application than before.13. Story still not that strong or impressive. You play this for blowing-up people and things with different weapons and Nano suit modes and not for a cute bed-time story. I should have used more of the suit's features. Mainly used armor and strength.14. As a fps I would rate this as quite good for an overall satisfying experience. However, I do rank this lower than COD4. Warhead has better graphics, possibly sound, and weaponry but COD4 has better story, more intense fighting, rush, and missions.Well, maybe this gives you some flavor for what Crysis Warhead represents.
