far cry full game, simply amazing - Page 3

Yeah, i always remember farcry's graphics from that night level perched up there, it does look amazing. But Doom3 #3? Pah....i think you need to play Max Payne 2

Im also a massive FarCry fan.

Also it runs amazingly well on my old system and also on my laptop, Doom3 judders a fair bit and you cant even see the nice textures as its so dark, for me Half Life 2 and FarCry are the most visually stunning games to date, although I enjoyed FarCry more than HL2.

Yep - full 100%, certified, final-build, totally complete, Windows XP Pro x64 Edition.

Now that ATI have released true and proper drivers I've had no problems with it - it's lovely, and it's extremely responsive.

Might have to try it out, although I didn't think much to RC2 to be honest, especially since Chaos Theory wouldn't work

It's a shame MS are touting x64 as more of a workstation OS, especially when games run with a higher minimum FPS on x64.

I would imagine you pay and get it reactivated

If you're going to install XP x64, remember these things:

- You can upgrade for free if you run XP 32, see microsoft.com for details.
- If you do the above you give up your license for XP 32 so you cannot dual boot unless you have another copy of XP or 2000.
- Did I mention that Crytek are releasing a 64-bit version of Far Cry?

Ramrod · 02-05-2005, 18:40

Upgrade for free....... Right now?........XP64 is gold?

And apparently there is an expansion pack coming out for Far Cry in august
