This game is really superb in most, if not, all aspects of video gaming. The setting is Africa and the atmosphere created by the graphical presentation is truly second to none. In my rather humble opinion it beats the original Far Cry for the PC by a country mile. For the first time in a computer game I got the impression that climatic effects were really occuring. While tranversing the game filled African Savannah a breeze blew up that really created that impression both visually and with sound impressions. The use of vehicles is brilliant. The map is huge and complex and fully explorable. I like games that really immerse you in the sense of the real environment and make you feel that you are really in a place like Africa. This game is clever and sucks you right in from the opening sequence. Great gun battles with both hostile factions. The only reason that I did not give this a 10 is because I know Fallout 3 is coming soon. Different genre but have to leave room for ultimate excellence.
