As Jack Carver, you have had a tough week. Lured to an island paradise by a brash reporter named Valerie who promised loads of cash, you were met by a hail of bullets by the militia that controlled the land. With your boat destroyed, your money gone and Valerie conveniently missing, you have to rely on your wits and your gun to keep you alive long enough to escape. But as the mercenaries' strange agenda soon becomes clear, you realize that you must stop their horrific plans and save the human race from extinction. Far Cry presents long range gameplay, sophisticated Artificial Intelligence tactics, diverse styles of combat and a heart-pounding atmosphere of suspense. Featuring combat ranging from long-range sniping to close quarters firefights and everything in between, Far Cry's A.I. provides unpredictable, nonrepetitive battles. Prepare yourself for dark deeds beneath sunny skies. Less
From the Makers of Mass Effect, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, and Baldur's Gate comes an epic tale of violence, lust, and betrayal.

FAR CRY: Intelligent Shooter?

bytheuerkorn Dec 3, 2004
72 Helpfuls 73 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros AI, graphics, huge areas, challenging missions, medium system requirements
Cons limited game save options, somewhat complicated controls
Recommended it? Yes

Now honestly, something just doesn't sound right when combining the words 'intelligent' and 'shooter'. No offense, but pretty much all shooters are more or less single minded. So is Far Cry different? Developer Crytek and publisher UbiSoft seem to think so. Well, let's see ...

Introducing the next generation of 3d-shooters.

Pros next-gen gfx engine, improved AI, less linearity, solid gameplay
Cons lots of cliche, unbalanced multiplayer, be invisible in the bush.
Recommended it? Yes

I'm glad Far Cry came out. Because unlike Doom III or Half Life 2, this game actually came out on time, and is without a doubt the first of a new line of next generation shooters. For that fact alone, I think it is a must own. So despite the slap together B-movie plot that combines elements of... Read full review »

A worthy successor to the Baldur's Gate Series

bycorey_russell Mar 11, 2010
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent graphics, sound, story, party based format
Cons Considerable hardware to run
Recommended it? Yes

First of all, let me just say that I very much enjoy Baldur's Gate (made by BioWare, the same people who made Dragon Age: Origins) with its party format and NPC interactions. Dragon Age: Origins helps to recreate that enjoyment by having up to 3 other NPCs (Non-Player Characters) be part of your... Read full review »

Fantastic RPG!

Pros Good Value, Challenging, Great Design
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

Dragon Age is a challenging roleplaying game and is far superior on the PC than the console.   You can plan party mechanics and pause the game in the PC version and cannot do this on the console.  The graphics are beautiful and the storyline is interesting.   The gameplay... Read full review »
