The developer clips in this trailer are actually quite entertaining, with Far Cry 2's art director, Alex Amancio, explaining how the team almost got eaten by lions while camping in Africa (silly Quebecers, should have hired someone with lion-mastering experience). Far Cry 2 is expected later this year and will allegedly be the same game on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.

I'd say it was somewhat innovative with regards to the large environments and freedom to take any route possible while choosing to utilize whatever vehicle was available. I did find the gameplay a bit bland, and they should've fine tuned it a bit better. And made it a little easier.

re:"I didn't have a computer that was good enough to run FarCry back in the day, so I never got to find out what all the hype is about. But I am told it was realy good."

Geeze you have no excuse not to pick this game up now that you have a rig that can handle it. You would be able to do all the super high res hacks/tweaks and still get 100's of frames per second. FarCry was HELLA more impressive once you turned up the goodies and maxed it out. TRY IT. Great game..

Ludwig WAS to be in this game. If not, an epic mod will be made ASAP.

It does look fun, I have to admit, but only because of the gameplay footage: the dialog felt... as if it were scripted by marketing.
