British gaming magazine, PC Zone, offers up the first known review for Crysis Warhead.
"With its budget price and improved multiplayer, there's more than enough here to cheer nay-sayers," says the mag,The review also notes that the aliens are a lot more "dynamic" this time. They will get into battles with the Koreans and have much improved AI.
"One of the most striking things about Warhead is the way it shakes the template Crysis snowglobe and has its constituent parts drift and settle into surprising new patterns. In Crysis encounters with enemies were heavily cordoned off from each other, in Warhead anything goes.
"It's a frenzy of intelligent and original level design, far away from the Far Cry model that Crysis aped," the review continues.
Nanosuited enemies, revamped aliens, bog-standard Koreans and a whole bunch of the monolithic Hunter tentacle beasts all turn up in an unpredictable order says PCZ, making for some "awe-inspiring" battles.
"Warhead honestly is the finest burst of action gaming released so far this year, and if you're canny then you'll be able to pick it up for a mere £15 from online retailers. It's a five hour tour-de-force that's plugged the holes in Crysis with diamonds."PC Zone gave Crysis Warhead a hefty 92% for their overall review score. The magazine is currently being distributed to subscribers, with the issue hitting the newsstands on September 11.
