I have recently got a ps3 and i have some money left over from my birthday and i want to buy a game. I really want a FPS but i cant decide which game to get out of Far Cry 2 and Cod 5 when they come out. I have heard that Cod 5 will have an awesome multiplayer, and Far Cry 2 has a cool campaign mode, but i don't know which is better overall. Any advice would be great, thanks.

I'd say farcry for the map editor but then again calling in dogs after getting 7 kills does sound hilariously fun.

i have COD4, and when i´ve been noticed that the game would return to the second world war i just thought "they are going to screw COD", but now, i have a diferent opinion, i think COD5 will be a great game, with a great online support!! Now, FC2 is a very good game i think, but i think COD5, will be better, online support is a very important thing in a game, and COD5 will have it great!!! My opinion goes to COD5!!

I have no idea.It is all up to you.I know people need help choosing games but it is kind of hard to do that when the games are not even out yet.

Far Cry 2 by far. Its trying new things, and looks excellent and revolutionary for the fps genre. COD 5 looks like yet another WW2 shooter to me.

Easily Far Cry 2. Everything I've seen of it is better than the aspects of COD:WAW.

Far Cry 2 all the way dude.It has a new map editor thing and a very long single player campaign.COD is an awesome game but very small campaing.

world at war is going to be great. i dont no if anyone remembers but Treyarch made united offensive which wasnt a bad game at all. the mp in it was solid and putting that into the cod4 engine is going to be wicked. deff a better pickup than far cry 2

I think you can trust them with FC 2. All you have to do is look at the videos for this game and see how amazing it looks. I think it's one of the few surefire AAA games this year.

Well this should be a very easy one to decide. I hope that since you asked this question you have played previous games in these series? I am pretty sure if you liked COD4 then you will like COD5 because its running on the same engine and from what I have seen the shooting and gameplay looks similar except that is in a different setting with different guns and in a different time period. Besides the mutant powers farcry 2 looks a lot like the original far cry. Far Crys multiplayer wasn't all that great but the story was what made the game. I think if they have better multiplayer in far cry 2 it will give it an advantage over COD5. Its up to you though. Play far cry instincts and the call of duty games if you havn't already, it will make it easier to choose.
