    Default Far Cry

    I was just wondering, but who else has got this game? I've got it, and it's quite good. Amazing graphics, tonnes of detail, and is fun to play. Shooting mercenaries is entertaining, as the more powerful your gun is, the further backwards they go flying. And the detail is amazing. If a person you shoot falls into the sea, his blood will turn all the water around him a cloudy red. But it's the little details that count as well, such as magazines left lying on the tables like 'Evil Scientist: Genetic Engineering and Bioweapons' with various subtitles as 'Workshop: Creating mutants at home' and '10 great tips on hiding WMD's from the UN!'

    I got bored halfway through. Fantastic engine, but the flow of the game really needed to be tightened.

    Now, if only the engine would be used for a good squadbased game...

    I have it and really like it, but my cd was eaten by a DVD drive (the plastic was chipped off in some parts and extremely scratched up). I could run it a few times after that, but I only tried with my cheapo CD drive in case it shattered, I need to get around to reinstalling it from my friend's DVD copy...

    I have it and play online too. It is the best FPS ever in my opinion. Truly a great game with stunning graphics.

    I bought it recently and played about halfway through it in two days. However, real life, computer problems and CivIV have prevented me from playing it any further. It is the best FPS I ever played though.

    FarCry was... ok. Stunning graphics and great on the strategic level, but gameplay left something to be desired. I had to stomach finishing the game. I learned me lesson... if a game isnt enjoyable, stop playing. I applied this life lesson to other games as well, such as FEAR.
