Well, finally on Friday Far Cry 2 made its release here in Canada, or at least at the venues I frequent. On Thursday I posted a rather irate message in the forums about how us PC gamers are always stuck with delays on how that in itself does not help the whole piracy thing. While I still stand very much by my comment, if Ubisoft had made everyone wait another week, it still would have been worth it for this game. Before I ventured out to obtain my game, I read the forums, and that concerned me greatly, because all I saw was a bunch of people complaining about how ugly the game was, how badly it played, motion sickness, difficult level, etc. Well after having played it for nearly 10 hours over the course of 2 days, I am extremely impressed. It seems to me that what a lot of people are complaining about are what make the game fun and accessable, the people saying "Oh, every car has a GPS qq" would probably be the same people whining if they didn't and they couldn't find thier way through the savanna. I plan on doing a full review once I've beat the game, but for right now, all I want to say is this: A good game is about finding the balance between what's fun and what's real, and Far Cry 2 did an extremely good job of that, it is my observation that people will whine about nearly anything if they had a different picture in thier heads, and some of the stuff I've heard are just unbelievable. As Jade_Monkey told me, people are like that focus group for the Krusty the Clown Show, "They want a totally realistic show that is completely off the wall and filled with alien robots."
