Meh...
It's nice that GOG finally brought Crysis 2 and 3 to their platform, but those aren't the versions I've personally wanted (and it is a strange move, considering that GOG has a very preservation friendly stance, yet they didn't gave us the original releases of C2 and C3). Crysis 1 has some major downgrades in physics compared to the original PC version due to the fact that this remaster was based on the Xbox 360 version. It also runs like dogwater, since Crytek still haven't implemented multi-core support, therefore it's pretty much as CPU limited as the original. Yet the biggest problem of this version is lack of respect towards the original artistic intention. Totally different color palette, different lighting and omittion of certain (typical for the games of that era) effects make this version a no-go (also, no Warhead campaign and multiplayer mode). Crysis 2 is a better one, but not by a lot, since most of the improvements compared to the first game stem from the fact, that it already supported many CPU cores in it's original version and also was a console centric game, so no major downgrades compared to the OG PC release there (maybe with an exception of less pronounced tessellation on the environment). Still, it's plagued with the same lack of care for the original artistic intention as the remaster of it's predecessor (also, no multiplayer mode). Crysis 3 is the only good one in my opinion. It doesn't have any major downgrades in comparison to the previous releases and boasts actual improvements over the original PC/console releases of the game. I'm also happy to report that the atmosphere was left intact in this remaster and even improved with the inclusion of ray-tracing, that fits this game like a glove (multiplayer mode wasn't brought back, sadly). Overall, it's not a good collection of remasters and I'd recommend playing though the original C1 (can be bought on GOG along with it's standalone expansion) and C2 (Steam, Microsoft Store and EA App only) instead of the remastered releases. I can, however, recommend C3 Remastered, since this one is pretty good.
