Currently playing Crysis and Im just blown away by its gameplay and graphics.I think its just superior to other games and I enjoy every part of the single player campaign.I hear that Crysis 2 and Crysis 3 didnt have good stories, are not as good as the original and were console ports.Also Crysis had way more sales then the other two.Should I get crysis 2 and crysis 3 ? Are they fun as the original?
 
Crysis 1 definitely is the better game, its extremely enjoyable and beautiful, even by todays standards.

Crysis 2 is a console port which I did not enjoy at all, very limiting and linear.

Crysis 3 was smack dad in the middle, decent story, decent gameplay, its main flaws were the lack of open spaces that the first one had as well as less variety in gameplay. The controls on PC are easier to use however, and its DEFINITELY not a console port. its DEFINITELY still worth playing though.

You will need to play the second game if you want to follow the story, at least its not a chore to play and quite short.

Well thats bad, I enjoy the game so much because of the delta difficulty where it forces you to be stealthy.
 


Yeah Crysis 2 does not have anything near that difficult.
Crysis 3 CAN be difficult, but in a superficial way but its still nothing near Crysis 1.

 


None of those has a significant stealth element.

But Dishonored (and its DLCs) is one of my favourate games in the last 3 years and is EXCELLENT in both Stealth and straight combat with multiple choices to do a mission. First time around I played it for the story and kinda rushed through, second and third and fourth time was still entertaining and challenging.

If Stealth is your thing, Dishonored is a must play. Hell its a must play even if you don't like stealth.


 
Splinter cell 1 2 and 3 are best in that term.

DX:HR is okish at best since the stealth system feels very obvious and simple.

I like Stalker series (yes, it has some stealth Elements, just a lot more realistic).

In relation to your first question: I played Crysis one more than 5 times for sure. I never managed to finish Crysis 2. I did not bother with crysis 3 after I saw some videos on youtube about it.

Crysis 1 is not flat out better in every department than 2 and 3, but it "feels" and "plays" better. As Far as i know, Far cry 1 is a great game similar to Crysis 1, just with worse graphics.

 


At the easy or normal preset, sure its easy, just like any game, crank it to hard and things get very interesting.
