Which Crysis should I buy?
« on: May 06, 2010, 02:09:06 AM »
The original Crysis or Crysis Maximum Edition?

On eBay, the original is $9, while the Maximum Edition is over $25.

I really hope it's just the original.  :P
People are stupid if they think they can have their own way.

... that is, unless they have HEAP rounds, high-explosive homing missiles, and terawatt lasers on a walking weapons platform, that is...

It's currently just on the original Crysis, so if you only bought the original Crysis you would be able to play the beta until it's released on Warhead, so I think, Crysis Maximum is the way to go, but hey, listen to others advice as well.

I'd say maximum just do you won't have to worry about it when they port to war head

Get the normal one. They won't port it in the near future, so having Warhead collect dust doesn't make sense.

I wouldn't bet on that...

I would recommend buying the maximum edition, I did buy Crysis Warhead myself not too long ago.
There comes a point where the talking must stop, and people have to do actual work.

Yea... having to pay twice won't be good  :-\ Go for Maximum - you'll have Warhead to play while waiting for next MWLL release ;) :)

Jason - just go for Maximum, you won't regret ;) +1 for Ingrater
Warhead is fun, if you liked vanilla Crysis - there are some few nice missions in it & wars is said to have cool multiplayer as long as noone VTOLs

Telling people because of that to not buy the Maximum edition for cheap might not be a good idea :) Better be prepared for the future...

Well, I'm assuming that by the time you guys go Crysis Wars, you can get CW for 5$ :P

In my opinion you should go the "maximum-way" too. 
I've bought the maximum-edition too and there's nothing to regret this buying decision.

E-bay?  I hope it's new and you get a CD key!  IIRC, EA put some code in so you can only install it a limited number of times.  The maximum edition retails for $40 so I would highly recommend spending the extra $15 to be sure you can play it.

You can always wait too.  I'm always looking for deals on crysis to post up on the boards.  They seem to pop up every few months
