I finally beat Far Cry last night. Man what a freakin long ass game that was! And a hard one at that. The last level when you are in the arena type thing after loading up in that weapon stock pile room and there are like 6 of those big dudes who shoot missile after missle at you... Holy it took me forever to get past that but once I did, the end of the game was only minutes away.
This game has to be one of the best looking games ever. I have a monster system so I have everything turned up and it runs smooth. I wish that everyone could enjoy it like that. The multiplayer I think sucks personally. Its just too buggy right now. The single player experience is where this game shines. Now its on to Painkiller. I started on this game last night and holy I love it!!! Super fast paced and the graphics are insane! Its like Serious Sam on Ecstasy with a demonic twist! Check it out!
*POSSIBLE SPOILER* (Tip for BadBadneil for the level he is having trouble with)
BadBadneil here is a little tip for you that might help. In the very last level, there is the weapons stock pile room. You can only really stock up on maybe a 1/3 of what is in there. Then when you go outside to fight all those dudes, the giant door closes shut behind you, cutting you off from returning back to that stock pile room to power back up. Well in that stock pile room there are some chairs. Use your shotgun and blast one of the chairs all the way to where the huge double doors open up. I know its kind of a pain in the ass getting the chair all the way there but its worth it. Open up the first big door and push the chair so it holds the door open. This way, you can kill a bunch of those big missle dudes, then go back through the door, back to the stock pile room and power back up. |

Yeah I tried that door trick before but I kept getting hit with splash damage from the rockets or from the snipers. Also the door doesnt stay open long because the chair keeps moving when the door closes. I've given up on that part and i've been playing UT more now :D Maybe i'll come back to it one day when I can calm down and not throw and break things in the room. |

| BadBadNeil I feel your pain man. Throwing and breaking things in the room sounds just like me when I played that part (and many other parts in Far Cry for that matter.) That game renewed my video game anger from days of old. |

| haha so true. I used to be much worse when I was younger. One of the parts that got me the most was when you land with only 10 bullets and there are like 30 mutants. When I first landed I was like WTF theres no way. |

| Guys pick up Painkiller!!! Ever since Far Cry, its been keeping me glued to my PC. Its a breath of fresh air coming from playing Far Cry because its a FPS yes, but its completely opposite in the fact that instead of stealth and tactics in Far Cry, its just blast anything that moves as fast as you can in Painkiller. Check it out! |

Thats funny you say Serious Sam dukes because Painkiller is basically Serious Sam but with WAY better graphics. You basically go from section to section, killing bazillions of enemies all while running backwards and holding down the fire button. Blood is firing everywhere and the physics are top notch. There are TONS of secrets too like hidden items, hidden areas. When you beat a level, you are told what you have found and what you have missed. I ususally miss tons of but I'm always dumbfounded because I explore like a mofo. Things must be very well hidden or something or else I'm losing my touch in my old age... |
