Remember That Game? -Far Cry 2

Morgan Park of ProvenGamer.com: Welcome to Remember That Game, where I talk about games from years past that might have been overlooked and talk about how they hold up to today’s standards, or whether or not you should play them now. This week I took an all-expense-paid trip to back to Africa to drive some Jeeps and take Malaria pills in Farcry 2. (Far Cry 2, PC, PS3, Xbox 360)

I try not to.

I still enjoying playing it, it wasn't perfect but had its moments.

I loved the fire.

My favourite weapon was the flaregun. I would shoot a flare so the fire would burn towards the camp and then while everyone was freaking out, flank them and start picking them off.

This game had its problems, but not enough games let you play in different styles like this did, and use a bit of strategy.

Have high hopes for FC3.

Good game except for the malaria and the respawning thugs.

+ Outposts and repetitive gameplay.

I remember fixing a flaming car with a wrench.

I love setting fires outside guard posts and watching them run through encampments.

Or sneaking into camps and planting IEDs on enemy vehicles.

Had some dodgy AI, but overall was an enjoyable game.

Not bad game but missions(main and side) was awful and also outpost.Visuals or gameplay was ok

Game was fun, but was frustrating. Never did beat it. Looking forward to Far Cry 3..

played FC1 n 2 and still dumbfounded as to why they named it Farcry (2) since you couldnt even if you tried very hard to.. consider it a sequel by any means, FC1 was incredible, i fucking loved it, trigens, jack carver, all that good stuff. but FC 2 despite being a good game was a let down because well it wasnt FC related. a good game none the less but mehhh crytek trucked it with Farcry2

Crytek didn't make FarCry 2 :) They made the 1st game

Ubisoft (who also owns the IP), made the 2nd game :)

THE most beautiful game I've ever played. On PC of course.

Only thing I hated was the malaria crap, I liked everything else.

I think it added a surreal feeling of desperation when you ran out of pills, but attempting to get more was repetitive and monotonous.
