The first expansion pack for the PC has arrived with GRAND THEFT AUTO: London 1969 (you must own the original GRAND THEFT AUTO to play). You are a small-time hood looking to get ahead in London by tackling a wide range of missions, including bombings and contract killings. Every aspect of London in the late 60s has been recreated, giving you a sense of what it was like back then. If you enjoyed the action of GRAND THEFT AUTO, then pick up the London 1969 expansion. It will be worth the trip. Less

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

Cons ?
Recommended it? No

The first Grand Theft Auto game I played was GTA 3, and I have to say that I was hooked. I went and got Vice City, which was even better. Shortly before the PC release of San Andreas, I went and got this package of the three original GTA games: GTA, GTA: London and GTA 2. (Before you get all wound... Read full review »

Pros It is really fun to play
Cons It says some cusses, so watch out for parents
Recommended it? Yes

Grand Theft Auto, or GTA, is an excellent game. It is one of the most fun games that I have ever played! It is also very cool. All you do is go around shooting people, stealing cars, shooting cops, swat members, secret agents, civilians, mob members, and even military men. This game is impossible... Read full review »

FAR CRY: Intelligent Shooter?

bytheuerkorn Dec 3, 2004

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 »
