There are some small signs of stress, but overall the Xbox 360 copes well with Crysis 2. Herein we explore the single player experience of a game that is a little bit Halflife 2 and quite a lot of Halo, but it is all about the suit.
All you need is a swanky hat, a single sequined glove and an Xbox 360 fitted with the Kinect motion detection controller and suddenly (or maybe, eventually) you can bust your Michael Jackson moves in the comfort of your own living room.
Shift 2: Unleashed provides a neat middle ground package, accessible to many while remaining authentic in its feel. The game probably tries too hard to be many things to many people, but at its heart this is a racer that will please most who pick up the controller and drop into an event.
