Following FarCry developer Crytek's 2004 deal with EA to create a new game--which eventually would become the much-anticipated shooter Crysis--Ubisoft was left alone with the rights to the FarCry franchise. News of their planned sequel broke after images were accidentally included in an Ubisoft press kit. (...)FarCry 2 is under development by Ubisoft Montreal. No further details were released at this time.

For those who want to see the leaked concept art again:

Looking forward to see first ingame screens, because I'm curious what Ubi Soft can tickle out of Cry Engine 1 still today. The concept art sure does look promising, love Africa as a setting!

Hehe, I almost feel a bit sorry for that guy... although, it's his own fault ;DThe trailer itself is pretty funny, but it doesn't really demonstrate what kind of game Fury is. Another 0815 MMORPG?

Its biggest difference in comparison to other titles in the genre seems to be that it is very PvP focused - probably PvP only, without any NPC enemies and you gain XP by eliminating real opponents.

I thought it gets the point across quite well

I heard some quite whacky stories about "Game Cock's" marketing techniques and I thought this trailer is quite funny. Nice to see a publisher not taking itself so seriously - thumbs up!

The material terms of the Offer Letter are as follows:

•

Mr. Moore’s annual base salary will be $550,000 and his discretionary target bonus percentage will be 75% of his annual base salary.

•

EA has agreed to pay Mr. Moore a one-time bonus of $1,500,000 (minus applicable taxes) in recognition of the future compensation value he would be foregoing by leaving his position at Microsoft. Although Mr. Moore will earn this one-time bonus at the completion of his second year of employment with EA, he will receive it within 30 days of starting employment. If Mr. Moore voluntarily leaves his employment with EA before the completion of two years, he has agreed to repay to EA the full net amount of the bonus.

•

EA has agreed to grant Mr. Moore a stock option to purchase 350,000 shares of the company’s common stock pursuant to EA’s 2000 Equity Incentive Plan. The stock option will vest as to 24% of the shares twelve months from the first day of the month in which the grant is made, and will then vest in additional 2% increments each month thereafter for the following 38 months.

•

EA has agreed to grant Mr. Moore 50,000 restricted stock units, which vest as to 50% of the shares on the second anniversary of the grant date, and as to the remaining shares on the fourth anniversary of the grant date.

•

EA will assist Mr. Moore with relocation-related expenses, which are currently estimated to be approximately $330,000. In the event Mr. Moore voluntarily leaves his employment with EA or is terminated for any reason other than a reduction in force that eliminates his job position (a) prior to the one-year anniversary of his date of hire, he has agreed to pay EA an amount equal to all relocation and gross-up expenses incurred by EA through the date of his termination; or (b) on or after the one-year anniversary of his date of hire and prior to the second anniversary of his date of

What's that supposed to mean?

Looking very very nice - and SHAME on you who believe this man would need to fake his screenshots!

i would like to go to one of these - but isn't it just a massive geekfest or are there lectures on existing and upcoming technology

It's a tradeshow.

And yes - a geekfest.

Yay for more IW people joining

Welcome!

We'll see what the company got planned - maybe we'll have 2 busses again, but it could be different this time around...having to finish the game and all

Anyway, I'll let you know...

Way to blow the gained trust again. Oh Sony...

Sorry for straight honesty - the treehouse isn't too bad at all (except for the wooden corners in the ceiling UGH!), but just throwing in Warby's dystopia props in there doesn't make it a good nature-technology symbiosis

What is the fiction behind the level?

I'm sure you've had plenty more experience of this than me, but I've never really heard of any games companies telling you what to wear. I regularly turn up in camo shorts and a t-shirt

I am glad for each morning that I remember to put any pants on.
