Ubisoft: Far Cry 2 'more fun' than Call of Duty 4

PS3 News from N4G | Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

PS3 - Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - Ubisoft: Far Cry 2 'more fun' than Call of Duty 4

VideoGamer.com writes: "Ubisoft has bullishly claimed that upcoming open world safari FPS Far Cry 2 is "more fun" than Infinity Ward's phenomenally successful Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare."

"I think it's more fun for everybody," said Far Cry 2 multiplayer producer Richard Gaetan. "In Call of Duty 4, the good guys are always the same, they always play the same way. In Far Cry 2 you cannot do that. You have to adapt, you have to change your strategy. And with the map editor you won't be able to learn your maps, because you have so many and if you want to play with your friends and with different people then you have to switch - it will be a bit of a surprise all of the time. So I think it's more fun."

Ripten writes:

"A few days ago, a long time friend of mine called me to let me know that he may have some positive video game related news for me, and I said 'ok shoot.'

He told me that his brother had gotten his COD4 disk stuck in his recently purchased PS3, and that the system would not eject it. So he decided to give a ring to Sony's customer service line. He explained the situation to a supervisor and was told that it would all be taken care of immediately. What Sony did next was pretty amazing."
