*Is it telling that I still play America’s Army from time to time?*

Haha, yeah, but that game is getting old lightning speed these days.

Far Cry 2 on the PS3 was a disappointment though.

That was possibly the most rockin’ trailer I’ve ever seen.

I know my PC won’t run it looking anything like that, and I don’t care. :)

I liked the part where a buddy comes and drags you out of the line of fire.

The Farcry type games never interested me that much for some reason (not that my machine’d be able to run ‘em). It’s probably the fact that I’m satisfied with lesser graphics, but I am more insistent on good gameplay. That, and I never had the impression these games were good on story.

wow, incredible trailer!

This SHOULD be good, but I imagine Ubisoft screwing this up royally, either that or it will suffer from consolitis. If not every other game is gonna have to go back to the drawing board.

Even if this sucks, i’ll still have Clear Sky to play again and again!

@Dominic — Ubisoft’s FarCry games always seemed to me to be waffling under the obligation to have mutants… they added superpowers to the main character to balance it out, but it’s probably best for everyone if they just took the damn things out and focused on the Merc (good) gameplay

I seem to be the only person who kinda liked FarCry’s trigen.; if only because they were geniunely the most challenging non-humans I’ve ever played against in a game. They were so deadly, and the chemistry between Trigen, Marines, and YOU was so fantastic in some of the better designed levels. The treehouse level… Awesome.

FarCry 2 does look pretty sweet, but it don’t seem to have the incredible heaviness that the O.G. had, which is a rubbish thing. The killing in this one looks more like FarCry: Instincts. :(

FC2 is more like Stalker than Crysis/FarCry, so I’m pretty excited for this game. Crysis and FarCry were good, but imo were nothing else than a nice engine with some random game thrown in.

That protagonist pulling a large blood dripping stake from his right leg had me cringe and smile.

looks bitching.
my only fear is that it might be like crysis which was imo pretty damn crappy. beautiful, but crappy

This is probably the game I am most looking forward to of 2009. Pity my PC won’t be able to run it ><
