225 of 259 people found the following review helpful Far Cry 2 - Meh Edition, October 24, 2008 By  J. Star "Agent.X7" (Endicott, NY 13760) - See all my reviews    = Fun:  This review is from: Far Cry 2 (DVD-ROM) Far Cry 2 is OK. It's nothing to write home about, though. My issues with the game: 1. - Guns - Who did the firearm research on this game? Some guns, like the AK-47, are completely mirror image. Some, like the HK G3, are just wrong. (Charging handle and ejection port both on the left side? Not in this reality.) 2. - Damage - Shooting someone in the chest with 10-20 rounds from the PKM to kill them? Zzzzz. 3. - No prone? Come on, is this the 90s? 4. - Enemies can see me in the dead of night, and know where I am, even when I am in the bushes and using a silencer. Hmmm... 5. - Repetative missions - Wow, let's do the same missions over and over and over and over and over... 6. - Respawning badguys. Just cleared that guard post? Funny that all the guards are back 3 minutes later... 7. - "Most realistic fire ever!" - with fire graphics that look completely unrealistic. Give this property back to Crytech. Ubisoft did a half-baked job...

Smith "otherthani" (NC, USA) - See all my reviews    = Fun:  This review is from: Far Cry 2 (DVD-ROM) Id like to preface my review by stating that in no way has my opinion of the game been swayed by the DRM used for piracy protection by Ubisoft. This review is solely in regards to the gameplay itself. With my pure enjoyment of Far Cry and Crysis, I was extremely excited about the release of this game. Unfortunatly when I began playing the game, I became more and more disappointed as I played. In fact, if it werent for the graphics, this would easily be considered an instant bargin bin title. I have so many gripes about this game that Im not quite sure where to begin, so I will start with my biggest one... the firefights. You have so much against you from the very beginning that it is extremely difficult to find them enjoyable. In fact you feel as though you are being punished just for taking the mission. Your gun will continuously jam. You have malaria, so in the middle of a gunfight you may need to pop a pill to get over it (everything turns yellow and fuzzy)...

Although there are some interesting aspects, it ultimately is just a boring game on the PC platform with minimal replay value. Games are judged relative to the alternatives available for that platform. In the PC area it falls down hard. Start with the aspect ratios the game screens take are very TV/Console rather than PC monitor oriented. There is no back-story and no reason for me to care why my character succeeds or fails. I care as much about him as he does about his employers. My character is more durable than his weapons. So while he can pull bullets out of his body with his teeth and repair almost any device, he is incompetent when it comes to cleaning, repairing and maintaining the tools of his trade - his weapons. Ubisoft's rationale for no predators is that it would upset the ecosystem. Lame excuse -- More likely either cost or time...
