So I have been playing Crysis 2 for the past 2 and a half days. Is why I am a lot less available on the various forums and lists. :)

But in the mean time I have started a list of other games and movies that the developers of this game have leaned heavily on for ideas. Here's my list so far:

Games:
Crysis (of course)
Deus Ex
Deus Ex 2
Duke Nukem
Fallout 3
Far Cry
F.E.A.R.
F.E.A.R. 2
Half Life
Half Life 2
Return to Castle Wolfenstein


Movies:
Aliens
Avatar
Lawnmowerman
Predator
Resident Evil
The Day After Tomorrow
War of the Worlds (S. Spielberg remake)

Think you've seen something I haven't so far? Add it to the list. :)

Oh and one weird thing: You can shoot and destroy just about anything in the world/city environment, but driving against lampposts of the FDR will stop you dead.

I used to pay Duke Nukem when my kids were in high school. They have all graduated from college some time ago and I (we) are still waiting for Duke Nukem Forever.

last year, I was given "Plants vs Zombies" by my brother and got hooked on it. I then bought copies for myself and my kids but discovered that the new version did not have Michael Jackson as the "Dancing Zombie". Supposidly, they were forced to remove that actor when Michael died. That is a shame as I looked forward for Jackson showing up and dancing while playing that game.

I (we) are still waiting for Duke Nukem Forever.

Only 10 more days. :-)
