Far Cry 2

[Tinky57]

Zygoeths, have you even played it? they ditched the Hawaiian shirt after FC1. Far Cry is not made by the same team that made Crysis (Although it would have been better if it had) they just run on the same engine (i think). Also if you have ever played through Crysis or Warhead you would realize Crysis has an really good story and the gameplay is absolutely AWESOME.

Meh, i think its definitely undercooked. Three more months of production and i could have been a great game. It has a lot of potential but seeing as there is no SDK it probably will never live up to that. If you ever played STALKER without mods, that is what this is like. There are moments that make you think it could be awesome but also so much repetitiveness and lots of glitches spoil it. One good thing about it is it took a leaf out of COD4's book and it is totally immersive which i think is a good thing. But that doesn't make up for the fact that the AI is terrible, missions are EXTREMELY repetitive, Animals cant even be shot in the head and they don't have dying physics, the fire (although still pretty damn awesome) is not effective at all and dies out after about one minute and although the enticed us with and promised us open savanna and the like probably 70 percent of the map that is actually used is jungle land. In my opinion it was released 3 months too early (got it the night it came out) and although i have pretty much criticized everything about it, its still better than 70 percent of games that have come out this year (Thats just my opinion, PC gamer gave it 94!).
Although i would never put it past Ubisoft Montreal to make an average game out of an amazing and awesome idea after Assassins Creed, lets just help they build on it like they did with Prince of Persia.

By the way the level editor is really cool, even a 9 year old could use it because its sooooo user friendly. Unfortunately like most user friendly and easy to learn programs it doesn't have much depth and you cant edit single player at all.

Im going to stick to warhead and the crytek sandbox2
