The Nanosuit has three modes: Stealth imparts near-invisibility strength grants more powerful melee attacks, greatly increased movement speed, and jump height and armor makes you something of a walking tank. Instead of wading through weapon- and power-selection menus, you're presented with in medias res overlays and subtle visual effects, which indicate the Nanosuit's status. Once you hit the Start button, everything you see and do - save for load screens - occurs in first-person view. The Nanosuit is the lens through which you view Crysis 2, and it adds a great sense of cohesiveness to the game. As a marine named Alcatraz (Callsign? Codename? Rude parents? Crysis 2 never says), you arrive amidst devastation and chaos, sporting Crysis' trademark Nanosuit - a semi-living suit of combat armor with advanced AI. Then the alien invasion begins, and things fall apart. A bizarre virus is devouring entire boroughs the city is under uneasy martial law, brought about by a strained partnership between the military and private security conglomerate Crynet. Set in a 2024 that seems more like the day after tomorrow, Crysis 2 depicts New York City, under assault from all directions. How did we review Crysis?
