Review of Far Cry 2 (PS3)

...sequel to the original game Far Cry. I am new to the Far Cry saga so I can't comment on its predecessor. As far as I'm aware, FC1 was very different i.e. setting and gameplay, so I think its best if we just ignore it.''' ==Whats it about?== Far Cry 2 is set in a fictional African state. A good place for Ubisoft to take full potential of the PS3's graphics power, and show off with fatastic African surroundings. However, behind the beautiful surroundings ...
...APR & UFLL. These two factions are locking horns in competition for control over the un-named state after the government colapsed and fled. This desperation for control has led to violence which in-turn has caused the civil population to flea the country. . . or be killed in the cross fire. A sad reminder of the problems some parts of real Africa has had in recent times. The central part of the game consists of "The Jackal" This nasty character has ...

Review of Far Cry 2 (PS3)

== Far Cry 2 == === Introduction === Far Cry 2, one of the most anticipated game of the year, but is it any good, well after Far Cry 1 it should be one of the best games ever, but can this new sequel follow its pre-processors success, or like many games should the 1st one the last. Well first of all it has nothing to do with the first, so if you were a big fan of the 1st then this one won’t oblige you to buy this one. Also instead of an island, Far ...
...of all the story of Far Cry 2, well you are a mercenary and has a job to do, hunt down and kill "the jackal" a dangerous arms dealer is the villain of the game. You start arriving in Africa and after 5 min of sitting in car waiting to get to your hotel when you get Malaria and faint. When you awake the jackal is holding you hostage. You still being ill can do nothing and as the jackal has your mission brief he now knows why who are in Africa. But ...

Review of Far Cry 2 (PS3)

Amazing! If you have a PS3 or 360 and have yet to get this game, you're missing out. It's easily one of the best games of the year and, in my opinion, one of the best first-person-shooters in years. The level of immersion and realism achieved in this game is incredible. Your character's animations actually show every motion and interaction, be it opening a car door and slumping into the driver's seat or stretching out to sweep another drum of ammunition ...
...perform field surgery on yourself, plucking out bullets with pliers and jabbing your arm with a syrette. All the while the environment you are in is astonishing. 50 sqkm of African terrain complete with swamps, savannas and jungle. Most of the foliage is dustructable and can be set ablaze to flush out the bad guys. Fire even spreads realistically and can be seen dancing in the wind. As if this wasn't enough, a full day/night cycle is in place and ...

Review of Far Cry 2 (PS3)

...best in its category so far to date, the game shares similarities to Ghost Recon in terms of the theatricals and then follows with the more Grand Theft Auto roaming and stamps down with Resistance style action. The story can be quite long winded but does eventually get to the point, graphics are excellent and sound.. well lets just say it does what it says on the box!.. The gameplay and overall simplicity of controls make it that much more fun to ...
...realism of the game can be quoted astonishing as you watch the character move and even when your character has injuries you feel apart of all that occurs. This game is more generated for the next generation of gamers as it emphasizes freedom in the 50km squared of open gameplay area. Although it looks very positive the only downfall can be the fact there are a lot of repetitive missions, annoying facts that your gun will most likely jam when you ...

Review of Far Cry 2 (PS3)

Far Cry 2 is the latest FPS released by ubisoft for the playstion 3. All in all its a good game but not an exceptional game. The gameplay is generally quite good in single player mode. There is a decent story line where you have to go out and try and kill a character called 'the jackal'. You go about this by completing missions in the 50km squared of open gameplay area. Although there are a few frustrating and repetitive that really bug me. For example ...
...map which is anoying when all you want to do is get to your next mission . Another thing is when you car keeps breaking down or your weapon jamming every five minutes. The graphics are essentially very good, as would be ecpected on the ps3 with the amazijng physics and the mind blowing fire effects in the game. More nice touches to the game are things such as self healing where you can pull a bullet out of a wound of straightening broken arms. I ...

Review of Far Cry 2 (PS3)

WOW, WHERE DO I START?! Far Cry 2 is the most amazing game EVER!!! Actually, I might say that about a lot of games... But honestly, Far Cry 2 is one of my very favourites! I was absolutely in love with the original Far Cry, and when I finally got Far Cry 2, I was over the moon! It has the most beautiful graphics, and the fire is absolutely amazing! I ALWAYS carry the flamethrower on me, just so that I can create random fires for the fun of it! There ...
...some hotter guys! The way Far Cry 2 works is quite realistic. You can perform missions freely on your way through the game, meaning you don't have to go along a straight path. Every time you play the game it's completely different. Also, the "Buddy" system allows you to make friends throughout the game, who are always different and many things can happen to them. They can help you when you need it, and they can die or go missing. They can also provide ...
