Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 both faired well, selling over 3 million copies, but that year also saw the birth of a new IP called Far Cry. The game was developed and released by Crytek, and it was an instant hit -- it had the best of both worlds, amazing visuals as well as gameplay that was rather new to the FPS genre. The original Far Cry added an open environment that gave you complete freedom, one could play the game in multiple ways. The next offering from the celebrated studio was called Crysis and as we all know, even though the game was a visual marvel, it made most PC systems weep like a 3 year old. The follow-up to Crysis, Crysis: Warhead is almost the same game but it packs an optimized engine and an excellent multiplayer pack."
Pros:
+Great action packed gameplay
+Still the best looking game out there
+Optimized engine
+A great multiplayer package
+Must have for the PC
Cons:
-Short
-Could have used more new weapons
