Hey guys, I have been getting mixed reactions on Far Cry 2. Can someone set me straight. Is this game worth a buy? FYI I like FPSes like Halo 3, Gears, and Gears 2

Imo yes. Far cry 2 is a fantastic game with easily over 30 hours of gameplay. There are a nice vareity of weapons and its a good buy. One thing that does get on your nerves is the mission locations. Usually im on the north part of the map and they give me missions that are completly on the other side of t he map! U have to drive all the way there. But i like the game it was a good buy for me

I got this game today, and I must say, I am very impressed. Not only are the graphics amazing, but the gameplay and performance is too. This game is Open-World (Free-Roam, Sandbox) as well which is great, especailly to be in Africa. I tried the campaign and the map editor, they are all great.

I say, pick up this game. You will defiantly like it.

when i first got this game 2 weeks ago, i liked it but got really boring after playing through 10 hours. So i left it neatly on my shelf for a week and played fallout 3 instead. Lastnight i gave farcry 2 another shot. for some reason im starting to like it and can be a fun game. i played another 6 hours and it was alot of fun and action. im about 46% through the game. and things got abit easier and less frustrating once you have unlocked most of the things. Although apparently this game will on my shelf once again because i bought gears of war 2 today. Im sorry ubisoft.

anywho what i am trying to say, it is a good game and is worth getting. But if you havent bought games like fallout 3 and gears of war 2. i would get those first because you will have more fun with those games.

Farcry 2 is a very good game imo. Not GOTY material, but still a very solid 9/10 imo.

The singleplayer is alot of fun and the online is decent, along with the best map editor in console history.
