8 Video Game ‘Final Instalments’ That Shouldn't Actually Be The Last

7. Crysis 3

First captivating gamers in 2007 with the release of Crysis, Crytek studios have somewhat devolved into an anti-climax of sorts. The first entry in this series was lauded by critics for its breathtaking attention to detail as well as its smart and intuitive AI, but with each successive release the studio seemed to wane, culminating in a controversy regarding the working conditions of their UK-based staff in 2014. You don't have to look far to find the Crysis franchise's detractors, and this makes sense considering it's a very flashy series of FPS games. FPS's as a whole aren't really something the more self-identifying 'hardcore gamers' get too worked up over anymore, so to many it looked like Crysis was merely more of the same - a staple of a genre failing to grasp the same audience it once used to. This doesn't mean they're bad titles though, as all three releases have shown a strong sense of innovation and game-design. The story may not really be all that enthralling, but the gameplay mechanics on display certainly deserve another shot at resonating with an audience.
