No way, when you get inside the alien spaceship in Crysis, it's the most amazing game ever. There's nothing generic about that zero-gravity spaceship exploration sequence. I don't remember HL2 being this good looking when it came out. It was riding on HL1's fame quite a bit.
96 is underrated, when it first came out it was jaw droppingly good... its graphics and physics were incredible. The Crysis of its day only with a good story/gameplay.
Which brings me to my vote:
Crysis. It has great graphics and all but the gameplay kinda fell a bit flat, especially when you get to the aliens then it just becomes down right generic.... beautifully generic.
The lovely thing about Crysis's gameplay was the amount of choice it gave to the player. If you found its gameplay generic, it's because you were playing it in a generic way.
