The Koreans somehow got nanotech from Hargreave (perhaps Hargreave himself gave them nanosuit technology as a contingency plan in case the US nanosuit teams could not gain access to the aforementioned "temple" (the Ceph ship). Kyong knows that Hargreave has his own plans concerning the Ceph ship, and Kyong is attempting to hijack those plans so that whatever Hargreave wants, Korea gets instead.]] Of course, [[spoiler: Nomad puts an end to those plans quite quickly, and even if he didn't, Kyong probably wasn't prepared for living Ceph, which is probably a hint that either the nanosuit technology was stolen or that Hargreave didn't trust Kyong enough to tell him as much as Prophet was told.]]

* As pointed out across the series, the Ceph you face in the games are basically caretaker/drone units and billions of years less advanced than the homeworld Ceph. In essence, Humanity was nearly wiped out by the Ceph version of Roombas! Imagine was the main world Ceph would have been like to fight, if it could have been considered a fight.

** At the end of Crysis 1, Rosenthal figures out how to disable the Ceph's energy absorption shields by overloading them. It's likely she learned how to do it from studying the specimen Psycho captured, meaning it ultimately saved the day.

* Depending on how you view transhumanism, the nanosuits themselves are this. Unless they are removed from the wearer (a process which will likely kill them), the suit will eventually completely assimilate and replace the wearer.

** Could be a case of ForgotHeWasARobot. The Nanosuit is similar to a Marvel symbiote. It slowly replaces the wearer cell by cell. After 20 years, its probable that Prophet really didn't have lungs anymore (its confirmed in Crysis 2 that Alcatraz/Prophet did most of his thought processes via the suit's processors and not an organic brain), but he is so unaware of his status that psychologically he still behaves as if he needs oxygen.

* Why was Alcatraz's personality scan corrupted beyond usability after the events of Crysis 2, being supplanted by Prophet's at the end? Because Prophet wore the Nanosuit 2.0 for months or even years, allowing ample time for the suit to do a full brain scan. Alcatraz wore the suit for a day or two at most before finally succumbing to his wounds, halting the brain scan before it was finished and only leaving enough data for Prophet to impersonate him instead of just being him.

* The Ceph use a combination of energy and icicle-throwing weapons like the MOAC in the early games. Considering the later reveal that [[spoiler: the Ceph on Earth are the equivalent of interstellar gardeners trying to preserve the planet's biosphere,]] their choice of ice for ammo makes allot of sense; it's the ultimate biodegradable ammunition, and by using the moisture in the air they essentially have unlimited ammo for their guns.

* The ending to the expansion ''Warhead'' is very satisfying: you've killed the big boss alien, thwarted your human opponent, and secured the relic for your side to study. Then you remember the ending to the main game: the alien specimen you recover will be destroyed when the Constitution is sunk, so this was all for nothing.
