Crysis was a huge success, although Crytek was, at best satisfied with the results. Still, Crysis led the piracy charts by a wide margin and many complained of the unrealistic requirements of the game. But, will Crysis Warhead be the same? Here's a look at things that went wrong with Crysis nad how Crytek can make the upcoming Warhead even better.

Everyone had really high expectations of Crysis. And that's what probably killed it. It's not to say Crysis is a failure, but rather the opposite, amassing 1.5 million sales world wide. However, Crytek admits that they "had hopes it would do better" Yes, Crysis was over-hyped but it is a stellar performer nonetheless. However, things did go wrong with Crysis.

    I wasn't impressed by what i saw at E3, perhaps now the playing field is evened out, i mean there is nothing in Warhead that we can't do in Far Cry 2, or any other console shooter. The graphics are no longer a wow factor as for much less we get the same quality graphics on the consoles or in less power hungry games. I mean you know you are doing something wrong when Far Cry 2 looks better than Crysis/Warhead and has tech specs that allow it to run on the PS3 and 360 at the exact same standard as the PC version.
