[micro]

Yes! I cant wait. farcry was imo one of the best games i have ever played. They had good graphics even by 2007 non dx10 standards.

Yes the new game will be on the pc! I hope they will keep the language down, unlike the xbox version

Its being made by ubisoft instead of crytek...

Im still just getting crysis. This farcry2 is supposedly based on the cry1 enigne which is old, it still looks good. On the other hand, crysis is definatly based on the cry2 enigine. Crysis may also be better since crytek made both the engine in the game so they know what they can do.


Crysis also will include mod tools and sandbox2 tool so its perfect to create the mod ive been working on. I only wish there was a easy way to imput ground deformation.


Here is a comparison of the 2 engines:

Well sure crysis is going to look great, and prob play great also. But that just means i will have two good games to play.
