Its like COD4 in the sense that its hard to find out whats bad....
Good: well it is one hell of a good looker. the graphics when turned up to the max is great. It looks like crysis, but not nearly. the tree distruction and everything is basically like crysis but its still missing something from crysis. maybe the blowing up, i cant really put my finger on it. when talking bout free form gamimg, now its going to be far cry 2 instead of stalker. this game slaps stalker in the face and farts in its general direction. far cry is very very free form. All guns feel very relistic, from the Ak-47 to the SCAR. Did i metion the graphics? The map editor is extremly robust and you cant make almost endless things. Its not GTA but the range of vehicals is huge, this is including the glider. The stealh system acctually works now, unlike crysis where even if it was dark, AI could still see you a mile away. There are Jeep cars... WOW!!!
Bad: Well the glider is basically usless in the day cause you will basically get shot down by the time you get into the air. AI can see you through the grass after you start shooting??? after a while, you start to wonder why there are so many patrols in the middle of the road. by the time you bout half way through the game, you will be driving though at least 3 outposts on your way. which gets very very piss annoying. Your car gets shot up quick cause of the stupid AI.
All in all, far cry is a must buy for anyone who likes shooters in generel. but though get ready to spend about 1/3 of the time driving around.
