Arguably the best shooter ever made

by   monsieurb54 ,  Nov 9, 2006
Pros: massive playing world, beautiful graphics, amazingly fun vehicle use, awesome shootouts, hilarious guard one-liners
Cons: the trigens are possibly the most burdensome FPS enemy ever created
The Bottom Line: Best FPS ever.
Review: I recently picked this game up because the laptop I had purchased for college was finally a computer powerful enough to run it. It is easily one of the best computer games I've ever played. The playing world is massive (you can literally walk to any ...

Far Cry stands above the rest

by   phungus ,  Oct 20, 2004
Pros: Great graphics and sound, huge maps, lots of fun
Cons: Really difficult
The Bottom Line: Far Cry is one of the best first person shooters on the market.
Review: Far Cry has got to be one of the best first person shooters I’ve played since Unreal Tournament. I had a chance to play Doom III for about half an hour and was not impressed. I thought the whole flashlight thing was pretty lame. What I really love ...

by   max-payne ,  Jan 14, 2005

The Bottom Line: One of the best FPS ever, takes you to a whole new level and shows you graphics and AI some games could only dream about. Go Pick it up.
Review: Ah, the game that took me so long to start playing, and finally I have. I must say the game is very good and deserves one of the top ten games of the year it came out. My recap great game with some bugs and issues, any notes I have I put a * in ...

The Bottom Line: Far cry is a truely excellent example of a modern shooter. Beautiful in both senses of the word, and a treat for all gamers FPS fans or not!
Review: INTRO: Theres an old saying in the gaming world, thats its game play that counts not graphics, and for the most part its been true. Whats been more fun over the years then Tetris, or pong or Arkanoids? The question was 'could a game have both?' ...

Mind boggling visuals and game play to match

by   section ,  Apr 2, 2004
Pros: BREATH TAKING visuals
Solid game play
Excellent AI
Both stealth and rampage attack tactics.
Cons: Can tax even the fastest systems
Supersonic, crazy attack monkeys
No quicksave
no co-op multiplayer
The Bottom Line: Without a doubt one of the best FPS games both in playability and graphical awe with enough content to keep most people interested.
Review: I couldn't avoid the buzz about this game at work so I had to try it out. I knew that the game requirements were pretty steep but I wasn't overly concerned since I have a P4 3.2, 2GB mem, and an NVidia TI-4600. Well I stand corrected. SYSTEM ...

It's a Far Cry from an ordinary game.

by   waynething ,  Apr 7, 2004
Pros: Spectacular graphics, weapons, AI... nothing new but everything is near perfect!
Cons: Akward preset controls, lags on poor systems, ladder controls, minor bugs.
The Bottom Line: If you like Half-Life, Goldeneye and Metal Gear, this game is for you! The graphics are spectacular and the AI authentic. No gamer should go without this game!
Review: Let me start by saying I'm not usually a huge fan of first person shooters. Only a few have ever interested me. But if you like Half-Life, Bond, or Metal Gear, you'll love this game! The graphics are delicious, and the story isn't too bad. But ...

Very good fps

by   solidruslan666 ,  Jun 23, 2004
Pros: Frighteningly smart A.I. The best graphics engine in the world. Huge levels.
Cons: need good graphics card. A.I is so freaking good.
The Bottom Line: Even if you dont like fps shooters this game is still worth looking into.
Review: Far Cry is not your basic fps. It has a lot of differences that seperate it into a class by itself. The story starts as you, Jack Carver, is taking this journalist on an island. But half way to the island someone sinks the boat. So now you have to ...

Wow.....This game has got GAME!

by   alphaproject ,  Mar 26, 2004
Pros: Graphics, sound, gameplay.
Cons: save points are automatic, can be frustrating.
The Bottom Line: If you like first person shooters, it doesn't get much better than this.
Review: If you want a game with some serious graphics before Doom3 and Half-life 2 come out, this is the new game to get. I believe you will need the 9800 pro from ATI or the 5950 Geforce FX card, but ATI is better at DX9 games. I can run the game pretty ...

This is no Half-life - it's BETTER.

by   todaymueller ,  Jul 12, 2004
Pros: Fantastic detail in every respect. Intelligent and testing game-play. Total immersion for the player.
Cons: Absolutely none whatsoever.
The Bottom Line: The most perfect PC game to date. Blows all the existing competition out of the water in terms of concept, game-play, graphics, audio and environmental detail.
Review: Far Cry has been touted as the best FPS since Half-life. Well, I'd like to correct that misconception, Half-life it's not.It's BETTER - but then that's what you get for 5 years worth of technological advance. The game-play is flawless and expansive. ...
