Crysis Remastered Reviews
Crysis Remastered is a lazy console port that weighs a lot even on modern PCs: it shows an incredible work of art on global illumination, but the performances are held back by some bad choices.

Crysis Remastered is an uneven remaster that highlights the greatness of the original game while failing to deliver a definitive edition of the game. Crysis deserved better.
Crysis still holds up as a fun and exciting popcorn style action game that is an excellent addition to anyone's library.
Crysis Remastered is a game that will pass without pain or glory for the players. This edition tries to remaster the mythical game of 2007 with a horrific result.

You have to be willing to forgive quite a bit to enjoy Crysis Remastered. Questionable enemy AI is bad enough, but a reduction in content is baffling, and the effort feels incomplete because of it. The extra lighting is nice, but the spotty performance is the real sore spot, as it ensures that a polished and well-performing version of the game is simply unattainable. Unless you have issues trying to run the original on your system or absolutely need controller support, you're probably better off skipping this until a better, proper remaster comes along.
I quite enjoyed the time I spent with Crysis Remastered. The game does hold up well to this day however the performance issues and the frustrating AI really hindered my enjoyment.
Crysis Remastered had everything to be a captivating, engaging and action-packed game. However, there are so many problems, that not even the beauty of the remastered graphics can save it.

In highest settings, it will still melt the insides of your PC and if I was rating it based on its ability to do just that, it would get a "12 out of 10" from me. As a game and a remaster though, it gets a mere 6.

Crysis Remastered is still a solid first-person shooter in 2020 but more could’ve been done to make it better. The open-ended gameplay still makes running around in the Nanosuit a fun power trip but the problems with enemy AI do sour the experience a bit. If you never played Crysis or were a die-hard fan there is fun to be had here but you may want to wait for a sale or for some tuning to be applied.
This game is still amusing, but remaster seems to be half-finished and with too high system requirements.

If you have fond memories of Crysis and wish to play it again but with better visuals on the format of your choice, you’ll probably get some enjoyment out of Crysis Remastered. Well, unless your favourite thing about it was the multiplayer – that’s been ripped out.
While I wouldn't say that Crysis is at the absolute upper echelon of FPS titles it certainly has its adherents...
The only redeeming quality of this remaster is that it might convince you to play the original instead.
Crysis Remastered is a missed opportunity for a cult-classic to rejuvenate on modern platforms. There are too many issues to consider this remaster worthy of its name.
Crysis Remastered enhances the appearance of a prodigy that in 2007 deterred millions of players around the world with its greed for performance. Those who saw their dreams shattered at the time can now easily run this re-proposal on their computer, which struggles to innovate, leaving ample room for the qualities, but above all the limits, of the original work.

You can now run Crysis, but you shouldn't bother running this version at this current state, because Crysis Remastered deserves better than this!
As a fan of the original Crysis it’s very hard to recommend this remaster. The changes to the art direction on top of the missing content and technical issues make this arguably the worst version of the game to play. Though if you have no other way to experience it, then there is some enjoyment to be had with it.
What could have served as a reminder to how good it once was, Crysis Remastered is instead a broken mess that needed a lot longer in the oven. Terrible AI and awful graphical glitches just suck any semblance of fun out of this.
There just is not very much to praise here. If you enjoyed the colorful sandbox action of the original, you will probably find some enjoyment with Crysis Remastered. If you are like me and thought that the original was lacking, even back in 2007, you will not find any reason to pick this up in the here and now. It is also hard to recommend the game in 2020 when so many other games have come and gone that have better stories, better writing, and better gameplay in every conceivable way. It's a very dated game, but at least the water looks pretty.
