A good game but not great

Great production values but some design issues
Let me get right to it; this is a game worth playing but the story drags along too much unnecessarily. No problems on the production values -- the setting is unique and makes you sort of feel like you're in Africa. Th... Read Full Review

The fact it is in Africa = cool + i liked the setting Bad part - Too long, and too much walking a driving

Good graphics alone just can't compensate the many flaws this game has...
Far Cry 2 is a boring and uninspired shooter that only stands out because of graphics and realistic fire effects. The game tried to mix FPS and MMORPG elemets but took the worst from both sides in the process. Story:... Read Full Review

A Solid FPS With A Politically Charged Setting Which However Has Its Issues
When Far Cry 2 first came out, the gaming world was ecstatic for obvious reasons. A massive world to play in and indeed a sandbox gameplay which allowed you to do what you liked when you wanted. It was an original idea ... Read Full Review
