Sheesh, BB Matt, you're a tough gamer to please. Each to their own I suppose. The eyecandy is still a lot better than any other game around at present.

bb_matt you are full of SH*t
when doom III and half life 2 arrives you will propably say the phisics suck because you can't pick the ants up and can't squash them
COME BACK TO THE GAMING WORLD AFTER ABOUT 80 YEARS CAUSE NOTHING WILL BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU, CHEERS.

Why the rudeness and hostility to someone you don't know ?
This is when we need forum mods, to warn people like yourself.

I'm allowed my own opinion, if you don't like it, then please give feedback with some logic and thought behind it, as opposed to your childish rant.

Thanks.

Maybe not, but it did win "best multiplatform game of the year" on Gamespot. Just because one site doesn't award it anything doesn't mean it's a bad game.

Maybe I should give it a second try - I tend to judge games based on whether they grab me right away or not, life's short and a games a game.

I'm going to try the far cry demo again on my work PC - it's a higher end system - I'll tweak everything to the max and play it for an hour at lunch time :)

I can't download games or mp3's from work. Their damn firewall blocks me all the time! I've even tried a proxy avoidance server (www.megaproxy.com), But the damn firewall doesn't allow me to go to anysites with keyword "proxy avoidance" Arrrgggg! :evil:
