Free Ubisoft Games

[ChaosLord]

In a PR move Ubisoft has released some of their older games, with ads included. The games are Far Cry, Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Rayman Raving Rabbits, and Ghost Recon. I hear the ads get annoying in Rayman, but are ok in the others. Heres a link to the story on bluesnews, with dl links.

Of these games I only played PoP:SoT. It was entertaining as far as those types of games go, and you've got nothing to lose(aside from time) to give it or the others a try.

Is StarForce on any of the installs? I don't see why they'd need it, since these games are free, but maybe they forgot to take it out.

I'm going for Far Cry. Time to see what everyone was raving about years ago.

Ditto, although it only seems like a year or so ago to me.

Ghost Recon is an excellent game for anyone who has not tried it.

Hopefully your system can run it fine. FC was very heavy on my system in the time. If performance doesn't suffer too much, you could try the "cold renderer" somewhere in the graphics options which gives the game a more "realistic" look.

It seems these free games are primarily aimed at USA inhabitants, however. Unfortunate, since I would like to have a quick free look at Ghost Recon.

Far Cry and PoP were two of the most worthwhile games in the last 5 years or so imo.

Nice! Having played PoP, I'll take a look at Far Cry and Ghost recon. Feels like Christmas Eve!

You can lie about your place of residence. That's how I got to play them.

Ah, of course. Somehow it escaped my mind. I will check it out then.
