Far Cry 2

During the weekend I had no net, so I played Far Cry 2. I used a cheat to give myself diamonds and gradually unlocked all weapons. It's a fun game, but the stealth factor isn't well made and the AI is disturbingly stupid and glitchy at moments. Still if you have a sniper and are a kilometer away from the npc's you can knock them off dead without them noticing.


It's not the best game, that said I'll point its good and bad qualities. First the bad. It's repetitive and boring at times. Missions are not fun, driving thousands of kilometers around the big map isn't fun, collecting diamonds for this single upgrade that isn't worth it isn't fun, the AI isn't fun and the story is mediocre, but there are also the good stuff like the sandbox - this one is enough to balance the scale. If you manage to immerse yourself into the sandbox, oh man is it fun. Stalking patrols, sniping camps, killing animals, driving with the buggy, trying to climb cliffs, which are unclimbable, exploiting stuff, this is the fun part. Doing a few missions on the way, completing the story slowly. You should not play this game continually, it gets boring. Try an hour everyday and it will be more awesome and playable.
