PC - Far Cry 2 - Ubisoft CFO Talks Prince Of Persia, Far Cry 2, Suggests Ratings Overrated Ubisoft Montreal's latest Prince of Persia title may have a significant impact on Ubisoft's financial performance, said company CFO Alain Martinez, particularly in an ever more competitive marketplace.

Speaking at the UBS Annual Global Media Conference, Martinez cautioned that it's "very early" to make definite projections on overall sales of the title, which launched this month, but the company "believes 2.5 to three million [sales] is clearly achievable."

The company is also hoping Ubisoft Montreal's Far Cry 2, which had an unusually mixed initial reaction, will end up being a steadier seller over the long term, rather than the explosive early seller the company had hoped for. Martinez said Ubisoft is "repromoting" the game, and now projects it to reach 2.5 to three million sales.

PC - Far Cry 2 - Far Cry 2 Widescreen Fix / Work-Around VE3D reports: "The folks at the Widescreen gaming forum have a fix for the cropped resolution issues in Far Cry 2. Thanks, Dangerdoggie. The only downside is that if you install the new file and want to play online with others, Punkbuster may think you are a 1337 haxxor and ban you from the server. FYI - the same dude who made the BioShock widescreen fix did this one as well."

PC - Far Cry 2 - PS3 Underdelivers Again - FarCry 2 Gimped After all this hullabaloo about how the PlayStation 3 is the only "true" HD console, here comes the release of FarCry 2 to slap Sony's PR in the balls. In addition to people complaining about the messed-up widescreen and mandatory 3.5GB install, the PS3 version falls short of its Xbox 360 counterpart by only supporting 720p while the 360 version supports full 1080p.

Ripten noticed this themselves just by looking at the back of the case for the game, a photo of which they've conveniently provided for you:

PC - Far Cry 2 - Far Cry 2 Uses Spore DRM Publisher Ubisoft has confirmed that, for the PC, its open-world shooter Far Cry 2, which hits alongside the PS3 and Xbox 360 editions on October 21, will use the same SecuROM DRM technology found in Spore, Crysis Warhead, and the upcoming Red Alert 3.

Ubisoft forum manager bukowski113 posted the deatils on the game's official forum:

# You have 5 activations on 3 separate PCs.
# Uninstalling the game "refunds" an activation. This process is called "revoke", so as long as you complete proper uninstall you will be able to install the game an unlimited number of times on 3 systems.
# You can upgrade your computer as many time as you want (using our revoke system)
# Ubisoft is committed to the support of our games, and additional activations can be provided.
# Ubisoft is committed to the long term support of our games: you'll always be able to play Far Cry 2.
