So you thought Oblivion was big?

So did you? Well, I can't blame you. It is massive, at a size of 16 square kilometers...

Have you heard of Far Cry 2, though? It releases this fall, and is an open-world FPS set in Africa, with features such as tree regeneration and dynamic weather effects. And, get this, the world is...50 SQUARE KILOMETERS!

Trust me, if you wanted Crysis on consoles, weep no longer. This game not only matches the Crytek engine, but it bests it IMO, and all without the insane system requirements of the PC.

the only people who will still have a problem are those that only have a PC. mrcong

What problem is that? Crisper graphics, faster load times, more precse aiming and mod support? Which one?

Yup, PC may have a few difficulties but its far worth the trouble. I prefer tweaking for optimal settings for 10 mins than to just being force fed dull graphics.

Pffh... Daggerfall was 160,000 square kilometers. It took two literal weeks in real time to cross the land mass.foxhound_fox

476 kilometers per hour is pretty damn fast! I mean, it took me almost two weeks to walk 650 km in real life.

Thats the point, there won't be the problem of system specs because it will be available on the PS3 and 360...the only people who will still have a problem are those that only have a PC. mrcong

if the PS3 and 360 can run the game fine...than any modest Gaming PC will have no problem with it at all.

an a High end one will have much better graphics than the console version.

"Speaking at Play.com Live, Far Cry 2 designer Peter Redding told us that the common expectation was that the PC version was going to be infinetely better than either the PS3 or 360. He also told us why that's a load of rubbish."

"But he dodged the bullet about how much better the PC version would be: "The expectation is that for someone playing on a really good high-end PC, it is going to be amazing. But the console version is going to be fanastic."'

Obviously, a high-end PC will have amazing graphics, but the console versions will not be a slouch either.

But that is a good point you have made, however. I don't know why that didnt occur to me.=/
