Far Cry 2 is a bore fest IMHO.

You do the same 5 things over and over and over. Talk to someone. Drive somewhere. Kill 3ish checkpoints (that respawn in like 2 minutes) along the way. Take out the people at the base you are suppose to go to. Drive back, killing the same 3 checkpoints on the way back that you just cleared.

I couldn't get into it. 2 minute respawn timers are dumb. Not to mention super human AI.

granted these crashes are in the minority of games sold...it's just ironic someone is gonna pick up the PC version cause the console version is too buggy.

Great game...when I can actually play it.
Me and 4,699,999 million people don't have any trouble with Fallout 3.

Totally agree...
I feel a small bit dumber after playing FC2 and I'll never get my money back or the time wasted\\braincells either. I also love how you can jump onto a vehicle mounted 50 cal and pump a zillion rounds into some dude, and he proceeds to pop one into you and your done.... lovely

this game basically does blow FC2 away considering FC2 adapted a similar exploration system with like 1/100 of the content fallout 3 has

the only thing farcry2 has over this is graphics and fire physics
