#FAR CRY 2 PC GAME REVIEW WINDOWS#

(If you have Windows Vista i'd reccomend SP1) It had an exciting story,įun gameplay and much more, but we will get back to that later. I Came home, pretty excited about trying the game, and it weren't for nothing. I first thought "Meh, just another one of those shooters" and I weren't that positive about the game,īut I catched the game on a "50% Off" offer, so I gave it a chance and bought it. So, the game many have been waiting for, Far Cry 2 has hit the stores and I myself was pretty slow with getting my copy. Make sense? The problem is that while the graphics are highly immersive, the gameplay mechanics are absurd enough to pull you out of the immersion.Game review is based on author's experience. Or how about the gun shop (which is normally unstaffed) where you buy the guns on a computer and the guns you bought magically appear in a warehouse next door. Put your gun in a magic box and pull the same gun out of another box 20 miles away. (6) There are magic boxes all over the map. Make sense? (5) Virtually everyone in the country is male and heavily armed.

No ticket agent, no bus drivers, riding the bus is free, it's perfectly safe, and it gets you to your destination much faster than driving. (4) The bus stations that take you long distances have no staff. For example if you want to run for cover, you are only allowed to run straight forward (strafing disables running) and if you are reloading, the game forces you to finish reloading before you can run or switch weapons. (2) Ostensibly you're in the country to kill the "Jackal" guy who keeps the war going, but for some reason you reach this goal by killing hundreds of random people that have nothing to do with your supposed objective. The war does has two sides: you (and occasionally one of your "buddies") against nearly everyone in the entire country. Ostensibly you are just some guy caught in a civil war between two sides (UFLL and APR), but in fact the supposed two sides are indistinguishable (you can't tell if you are fighting UFLL or APR guys), there are no front lines, and you almost never see AIs fighting each other. Some points to consider: (1) Perhaps what throws away the game's immersive qualities more than anything else is that even though you're supposedly a "no-name scumbag", the game clearly revolves around you. However, the game's storyline is somewhere between nonsensical and nonexistent, none of the characters have much depth, the voice acting is mediocre at best, the missions are repetitive, and there are some problems with the control scheme. However, The graphics are lovely and immersive (if your system is beefy enough) and I enjoy having the freedom to go anywhere at any time.

Go play Crysis, the true sequel to Far Cry, and leave this third rate third world game well alone. Far Cry 2 is the most beautiful, repetitive, and mind-numbingly tedious game I have ever played. Tetris has what some may not even call graphics and is repetitive yet challenging and extremely fun to play. This is a disgraceful sequel to a worthy first person shooter. I laughed at the utterly pathetic plight of my avatar. Not a corpse, nor blood stain in sight (Realism, anyone?)! This was my experience when I drove to a mission, when I drove away from a mission, and when I just wanted to drive around looking at the scenery. For example, I laughed hard when I annihilated one of the infinite-random-henchman-emplacements drove around the next corner and thought, "I wonder how long 'til the henchmen return?" So I turned around and went back only to find the infinite-random-henchman-emplacement teaming with life again. After I played this extremely beautiful game for about 15 hours (I tried so hard to like it), I was very disappointed and felt frustrated that the majority of my actions in the world made little or no difference. It's big, beautiful world let you approach the varied missions using a variety of tactics making it challenging and giving a sense of achievement. The first iteration of Far Cry was, while not necessarily perfect, a solid first person shooter.
