Description
(from GameSpot ):
For almost a year now, the gaming world has eagerly
anticipated the arrival of the next-generation wave of
first-person shooters. These new games would finally begin
to take advantage of the powerful graphical features
that hardware companies have been incorporating into their
video cards to deliver unprecedented visuals. But while
we're still waiting to see the fruits of the labors of
storied developers like id Software and Valve, Crytek, a
relatively obscure German developer, has managed to beat
everyone to the punch with Far Cry. In fact, Crytek almost
delivers a knockout blow.
Far Cry isn't just a stunning technical accomplishment. It's
quite possibly the best single-player first-person shooter
experience for the PC since Half-Life.
In Far
Cry, you play as Jack Carver, a guy who's been hired to sail
a mysterious woman around the Pacific. However, Jack's ship
suddenly comes under attack. After washing ashore on a
tropical island, sans the mysterious woman, Carver must
investigate his surroundings so that he can find her and
eventually rescue her from an army of heavily armed
mercenaries. |
