That's not this gen graphics...lol. Far Cry 2 had some of the best graphics this gen. That looks like Far Cry 1. Who would bother with that old engine???

Far Cry 2 is one of my favorite games this gen...Here's why...

In terms of graphics, FarCry 2 was quite impressive (on PC), however the repetitive gameplay was pretty horrible. IMO, FarCry (The pc verison, not the console "instincts" spin off) was a much better game, however I feel crysis was the true successor to farcry, and farcry 2 should have carries a different name altogether.

I agree as well. It was by far the longest and one of the most engaging FPS I've ever played.

-Gespenst-5743d ago

Just is all just correct.

BattleAxe5743d ago (Edited 5743d ago )

Far Cry 2 IMO was a far better game. Better graphics, better voice acting, better story, better physics and a REAL open world game. I've got this game for PS3.

Far Cry 1 PC was ok, but the AI was not realisic by being able to see you through tents and buildings. Also the mutants looked stupid. The music in the game sucked also. Far Cry 2 was a much longer game.

mastershredder5742d ago

Right there with you. There were things about Farcry 2 that just stunk and others that were spot on.
Crysis in my mind is the true "Farcry 2". I did not really need a sequel anyway and why the hell not bring Jack back if you did? It would have been a hell of a lot better than a mute random pick mercenary.
Farcry 2 had so many shallow ends and the character development was one of them. Hell the Jackal was the main target yet you are so displaced from him you don't feel like you efforts are really leading up to tracing him down, but more like just invisible BS barriers blocking you from getting to the goal. I don't know why but I kept thinking of Mickey Rourke every time I encountered the Jackle or listened to those over the top "they're not gonna get me..seee? Meeeeh seee?" voice recordings.

hm i think the only good thing about far cry 2 are the graphics..
the gameplay sucked.. the always respawning enemies.. the stupid health system.. no splitscreen multiplayer.. online problems..

hiredhelp5743d ago

cez of rage
kid you obviously no nothing. if i was you go back to the xbox world of games. leave this to the big boys. for your info this is the old first engine with a MOD a MOD . this looks freaking awsome. if you benchmarked this game to xbox 360 far cry 2 you find this won hands down.
by the way ive owned all farcrys on pc and
xbox 1 instincs
360 preditor
360 farcry 2
ps3 farcry 2

as well as crysis and crysis warhead.
i used to make map and host and known in the world of farcry back in days try www.fcmaps.net run along.

Sidewinder-5743d ago

That trailer falsely advertised the game in terms of the story.

Far Cry 2 was poor. Graphically sound, but in most ways, it was just very poor.

Far Cry(PC) was better. Far Cry Instincts was better.

BattleAxe5743d ago (Edited 5743d ago )

So you liked the terrible voice acting, the poor AI and the stupid looking mutants in the first one? lol

sh0ryuu5743d ago

I mean... you act as if Far Cry 2 had good voice acting. That was all terrible as well and ran far too fast with no breaks between sentences.
There's also nothing great about the AI in FC2. Regardless of where you are, if you fire your weapon, they instantly know EXACTLY where you are. It really added to the camouflage mechanic that simply didn't work... at all.

Johandevries5742d ago

Far Cry is WAY better than Crysis. Why?

Because Far Cry is like 20 hours of gameplay and Crysis 7....

Simple reason

The pretty trees and flowers. Oooh. Aaah. Look at that awesome looking *SSSSSWIISH-THUB* - bullet through the chest.

MGRogue20175743d ago (Edited 5743d ago )

The people responsible for this should be hired as professional game developers.. Aye, I'm being serious. I see huge potential. :P

BloodyNapkin5743d ago

For being a revamped 6 year old engine, it looks pretty good.

Noah Hawley To Create Farcry Series

A new FarCry television series has been announced.

crazyCoconuts176d ago

I wonder if they'll go way back to where the story started w/ weird animal-like genetic mutations. I don't think the current games even try to tie back to that origin, or at least I don't see any attempt to...

cloganart176d ago

I think this series should feel like an Anthology like the games. Every season a new setting with new set of characters.

Urgh. Learning the wrong lessons from something as always

P_Bomb250d ago

Currently playing FC4 for the first time. On the plus side, the 60fps update is great. On the down side, the multiplayer is the weakest part. Just chatting in the lobbies, ppl were only doing it for the online trophies. I don’t know that anybody really wants more of that.

Can't wait to see the excuses when this does terribly

Far Cry Villains To Appear In A New Comic

This is interesting news for comic and Far Cry fans as something new in the universe for the game is always welcome. Villains from popular Far Cry games are transported into prehistoric times by the priestess Batari, who has pulled them from their lives before they've committed their most heinous crimes.

"Villains from popular Far Cry games are transported into prehistoric times by the priestess Batari"

Why do they make every f****** thing goofier and goofier

Watch Dogs become whacky, Assassins Creed jumped the shark, Ghost Recon become less serious now this

Garethvk778d ago

I think it is the trend. They look around and say ok; what can be done that will not infringe upon the next game and this is what happens. I heard rumors of the next Far Cry offering may be in Alaska and there was also an Online offering coming. So we get this to tide us over.
