Crysis vs Warhead

I understand Warhead runs better than Crysis, but i'm guessing the story carries on from Crysis?

Which one should I get?

(I'm not buying both)

The story runs kind of parrallel.

If you're ever going to buy the other at a later date, get Crysis first- it'll probably be a bit cheaper as well

I found crysis to be the better story, Warhead is just an expantion/side story so its not that long.

I would go for Crysis, if you like it then get Warhead.

Get both

Nymins · 28 Jul 2009 at 16:09

Crysis is longer and better, so i'd probably get it even though it doesn't perform just as well as Warhead.

You can get both in a pack now along with Crysis Wars.

Crysis runs slightly worse but looks slightly better. Warhead has some better level design but overall I prefer crysis.

KNiVES · 28 Jul 2009 at 16:21

I prefer Warhead because it's more action-oriented, and run smoother. The aliens have much better AI too.

I think Crysis is better but the gunplay in Warhead can be more fun. Get Crysis if you are only getting one.

In Crysis you have to headshot people though or they take forever to die

Which is what angered people a lot about the game.

^This.

£25 for both is well worth it.

Agree, but if it is only one or the other, go for Crysis. It's a bit slower in terms of gamplay, but then you really appreciate the visual quality

Crysis it is then

loved them both, could not choose

Preferred Crysis over warhead. Warhead was good but the third person cutscenes really broke the pace and immersion of the game. I also thought the colour palette in warhead was a bit less realistic than crysis.

Crysis should be longer than warhead aswell. But as other have said both can be had for £25 quid.

didn't enjoy Warhead as much at all, while i thought crysis was awesome especially at parts.

ojrules · 28 Jul 2009 at 22:28

warhead has some epic battles... whack the hardness setting up and its very fun....

I'd say get the original Crysis, although as previously mentioned both can be acquired in a pack for around £25, possibly cheaper if you shop around.

Farore · 28 Jul 2009 at 22:42

I would say Crysis if you can only afford one of them. It has a better story line ^^
