Looks like a good game I might get it.

this is a good game all the missions are the same.
the ai spots you very fast even when your in the dead of the night and they can see you behind objects.
The traveling from one place to another is terrably borring like reality.
though your allies shoot you on the first sight of you it is still fun.
You get to create your own maps which is hard and funny.
The graphics are eye popping.
(WARNING: NEVER EVER PUT THE DIFFICULTY ON MEDIAN OR HARD IT TAKES AWAY THE CROSSHAIRS AND MAKES YOU HAVE MOTION SICKNESS AND HAVE A HIGH CHANCE AT VOINTING ALL OVER THAT $5ooo HD TV YOU HAVE.)

Reinventing the shooter genre... again
May 23, 2008
The original Far Cry was hugely successful for two huge reasons - presentation and freedom. When the shooter first released on PC in 2004, the lush and unrestricted jungle setting was a revelation.

Forget tropical jungles. That’s old news. The Serengeti is the newest playground in gaming. Just look at Resident Evil 5, or Halo 3. The continent is a gaming paradise, mixing wide-open savannas with dense jungles, which is exactly why Far Cry 2 has ditched the island. It’s a fresh location for a new beginning. Name aside, Far Cry 2 has nothing to do with the original. Carver’s long gone, and he’s taken the tridents » Read Full Far Cry 2 preview
