Far Cry

[Rogue]

Muchos apologies if it's been done before. But this is another game which came with teh Shabba X which I am most pleased with. I'm going far enough as to say it's better than Half Life. It just feels more urgent in the pace.

Needless to say my Counter Strike skillz [You know the ones] have helped me serve up a healthy portion of arsebang on many a mercenary.

Gets difficult towards the end tho.

ooh very, espesialy the level where u are droped on top of a cliff with a m16 and 10 bulets with which u have to kill one of the mutated mupets(i manged to still have 1 bulet spare to kill 20 otherr bigger mutated mupets) and way after 15 unsucceded tries i managed to build up currag to just leg it to the shot down chooper with 2 miniguns atached to it which to say i love firing at those almost indestructable mutated freaks(some of them take 25+ bulets to the head to kill them), god i love that game,


multiplayer with 28 odd people on would be a fun one lying down in the bushes sniping pople away.


or create a very custom map where the 28 of usfrom different positions have to make thir way to the top of the hill but with miles of mersenariesand muttnt freask to kill and to be ambushed on the way)

....i might have said too much, sorry.

I was and still am highly impressed by this game. The graphics are still some of the best ever seen on PC- nearly a year after its release. The gameplay is fantastic- mainly because there are so many different ways to complete each level. OK yes at the end it becomes near-impossibly hard, but to be honest that is quite refreshing when compared to so many current games which you complete in an afternoon. Also, there is a lot of variety in the different setting- although much of this is due to good use of ambient lighting and excellent level design.

One thing I have noticed- of late when I play it I get a weird white line/haze at the bottom of my screen. I dont get it any other games.... not sure where it comes from... It is possible I accidentally installed the 64bit patch though... bugger yes that could be the problem...

its a great game except towards the end when it felt a little doom3 ish which totally turned me off.

[happynoodleboy]

No I am not- my processor is 64 bit but my XP is not (allegedly you have to reinstall EVERYTHING) to get 64bit XP...

[MIsc^|^decoy]
