Guest abusivegeorge Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 So I just took Test Drive Unlimited, Crash Time, Flatout Ultimate Carnage and Quake wars Enemy Territory down to Gamestation on Trade in as I've completed them all and got fed up with Quake Wars, to come home with Farcry 2 and Unreal Tournament, got the two for £30 I have yet to play them, what are your thoughts? Edit: I got £32 for the four games I traded in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squee Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 FarCry2 is a very ambitious open world game that let's you explore the fictional part of Africa that you're in. It's an absolutely beautiful game and a very, very, very different approach to the FPS than the original FarCry was. Unfortunately the game has its downsides, but I don't feel like mentioning them since you haven't played it yet. I don't want to ruin your gaming experience, you know. When you've played it for a couple of hours you will without doubt have noticed the downsides of the game and then I'll tell you what I think of the game :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest abusivegeorge Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Unreal tournament goes without saying-fantastic. Farcry 2 is absolutely fantastic too, the downsides are that after the first few missions, you just sort of drive around and don't really have objectives to do apart from find the jackal and kill him, but there is no real direction as to progress through the game except drive around the map and visit different places, its still bloody fun though, and unlocking the safe houses.

Guest tv_party Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 the first far cry is one of my all time favorite games. I'm afraid to try 2 since I have very high expectations as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autopilot Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I tried to get big into UT on the 360 last summer, but it seemed like hardly anyone was playing it. Is it easy to find games now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not playing it online yet mate, I'm just playing the single player campaign, but I would imagine so yes because a lot of people I know have it and play it online, it was one of my main reasons for purchase.

Terpentintollwut Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Does Far Cry 2 give you the ability to save all the time? through stationary save points (safe houses?) or through quick save? I thought it was pretty cool that Far Cry only had these check points, it was annoying but it brought up the adrenaline-aspect the arcade times where you were just praying for the next save and not to die... but I can't imagine how they'd put check points in a GTA style open world, unless after certain achievements, and that would be annoying... well, how does one save?

markedone Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 You can save anywhere on the PC version. On the console versions you have to get to these save-boxes or to a bed to be able to save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest abusivegeorge Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Yea you have to take control of a safe house to find a save point, but they are very frequent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
