I used to do reviews on Facebook but those idiots would soak up anything I said. these reviews are my personal opinion and are not meant for everyone.

Far Cry 2

Far Cry 2 is a first-person shooter by Ubisoft. The game brings the player to Africa on a mission to kill an Arms Dealer who apparently started a civil war between two factions (the UFFL and the APR). during gameplay the player contracts Malaria which needs to be cured after every 40 minutes (real time).

Gameplay-the game plays out like an open-world FPS with vehicles to travel to and from destinations, however getting to your destination is no walk in the park. there are patrols all over Africa and will shoot at anything that looks like you. The controls are easy to learn and the AI are pretty damn clever, if you hear a vehicle sound, make sure to dodge the rolling mass heading towards you. The pain in the arse about Far Cry 2 is weapon degradation, overused weapons soon start to rust and jam, eventually they will break and be completely useless.

Graphics-the look of the game is not its strong-point, sure everything looks nice and realistic but some parts just look like everything was dusted with Milo. I'd say that the most texture work was done on the environment, weapons and vehicles, as the NPCs look like they could use some more work (oh well, why would you need to look at them if you're only going to pull the trigger)

Story-not giving out as much spoilers as I can, the Story is greatly not entertaining. It gets too repetitive and with repetitiveness comes boredness. I'd like it a lot better if the game never had a brick-wall ending, for an open-world game I'd expect to finish the game to be greeted with more freedom. sadly that isn't a luxury the game has.

Though I can say I rather enjoyed Far Cry 2 and with Far Cry 3 coming in a weeks time, I can do one for that then. I hope you enjoyed the review, goodonyaz
