[QUOTE="lesner87"][QUOTE="rwrden"]

Before I go ahead and break down, and preorder from ebgames/gamestop, I have a few questions about the game. Now I know that it hasn't been released yet, but I've been reading different messege boards, watching videos, and so forth and still am on the fence on this one. Does far cry 2 compare in any way to MGS4? Because I enjoyed that title a lot, I liked the adventure/shooter aspect. I want a fairly long game, will far cry 2 fit that criteria? Also, I enjoyed free-roaming games like oblivion, so far cry 2's should appeal to me also, right? I don't know what to do. The last game i preordered was nhl 09, and that doesn't really count; sports games are usually "safe bets" from year to year.

Who here has preordered far cry 2?

Will it be long? A lot of missions and sidequests

Replay value?

thanks for any feedback! :-)

Also-i like rpgs, but fallout 3 atmosphere doesn't appeal to me, being a post apocalyptic-world

I will answer your questions and go into details turn by turn :

1)Yes it will be fun like MGS4.Although they both are somewhat different from each other.But still it wont be any worse than MGS4.There are MANY ways to play it,which include stleath(mgs4),rambo style,tactics or strategy.Because you can approach your enemy from ANYWHERE.Example you have a checkpost with three men sitting,now if you ambush them through any vantage point they will take cover hide n fight back.But you can just go from the back and kill them silently.ITS ALL UPTO YOU !

2)I have preordered it already !

3)It will be VERY long.Your main mission is very small to hunt down the Jackle.But the way you reach him is Very long.You make your own story.There are alot of captains,warlords,drug dealers and buddies you have to deal with.There are two parties you have to destroy before reaching the jackle ! I mean it plays somewhat like oblivion.Like you have a huge fully accesible 50 square kms map and its COMPLETELY upto you what you do first and how you make your way to the Jackle ! Its completely upto you that in which jungle of that map you go first and which captain you meet first.The characters are ALL FULL real-time AI dynamic.That means they wont appear in any specific chapter or at any specific time.They just play like any other normal guy in the game.You can kill them and still go on...etc..etc..

4)Yes alot of replay value i mean you can play the story again and again,use different tactics each time and it still wont grow old on you.Apart from that it has the BEST map builder on consoles which you can share online ! So it has that value.

I dont know dude.I just heard in an interview that you have a choice to either complete the main mission quickly or take your time !

[QUOTE="jojothekid"]i read somewhere that says farcry will look slightly better on ps3 pyromaniac223

Just sayin'

Lol dude where did you get that info ? PS3 to have better aliasing and smoother frame rates in Far Cry 2.

http://www.psu.com/Far-Cry-2-to-feature-smoother-graphics-on-PS3-News--a0004674-p0.php

"The developer says that the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC versions have been developed from the same core build, so they'll all share the same features," wrote Gamespot's Guy Crocker. "While we didn't see the PS3 version, it's claimed that the aliasing on Sony's machine outperforms that of the 360, while on the PC it's all dependent on the specifications of your machine."

Far Cry 2 to look the same on all platforms :

"Apparently, the game will not be "better" on PC than on consoles, as Redding promises the games will be pretty much equal across the board. He also promised a near seamless experience, unlike Oblivion, which Redding said has a several times smaller game world than Far Cry 2's. "

Well in terms of technicall graphics Gears has alot more stuff.Example soft bodies,stunning new lightning system....etc..etc..But insomniac game made sure that everything in resistance i.e. the big ships,the big bosses and the massive landscapes are in REAL-time.

But still Gears of War 2 is simply just better,technically speaking ! Although i dont like their grey and muddy textures.

Would you sell your PS3 or just hope that games like KZ2 and Infamous score high?

What would your reaction be???

ArrancarVizard

Theres certainly no way that i will see them flop.Both are unique and good games from their own point of view.I cant bet on resistance 2 but LBP simply cant be a flop !

Even if LBP does get a low score on this Gamespot that really doesnt matter ! Recently there has been alot of under ratings on GS and anyone would agree with me on that issue !
