    I just saw a quote from the PCGamer UK review

    Quote

    After playing Far Cry 2, I'm simply unable to go back to straight and simple first-person shooters. This game has executed my expectations.

    Seems like it will be worth getting

    And for those people who need reviewers to give them a number before they can consider buying a game, it got 94.

    I'm most certainly going to get this game.

    Pulling shrapnel out of your leg, manually bandaging your wounds, cars breaking down, weapon degradation? Fuck yeah.

    Hell FC2 looks real sweet and fun. I'm glad they changed the plot completely because frankly that mutant shit in Far Cry was awful and boring. I couldn't be arsed to finish that game

    I like how Far Cry 2 has the Riddick health system, I heard the actual plot of the game is ridiculously stupid. One week till it's unlocked on Steam!

    I read some negative stuff about the game in swedish gamereactor today. Like that the far distances between objectives destroy all the fun. And that its only so big for the sake of being big. It was a preview only tho. They gave it 2/5 hotness thingies.

    So i guess we have to wait till some more reviews get in.

    i said it last year and i will say it again:

    i wouldn't mind if 2 or 3 of the anticipated games would suck and fall through ... than i wouldn't have to spend so much time and money.

    but last year pretty much everything owned and so far this year doesn't look different :/

    ships with a respirating device as well, which you'll have to equip if you don't want the protagonist to suffocate.

    All the better. I just can't wait to see what other mundane tasks they haven't revealed yet.

    The main character has Malaria and you have to routinely take prescription medicine to keep it under control. You also have to go out of your way to stock up on pills if you run out.

    cancer of the lung

    Cigarettes, caffeine or toilet breaks! Why not centering an entire game around a drug addict? Not such a bad idea actually hmm...
