Will a supercomputer needed to play be included with the game or purchasable separately? xD

I didn't know Chris Redfield was going to be in this game...

@Blazinfire0: Same trailer.

HenryHSH

It amazes me how far we've come in so short a time. It seems like only yesterday I was playing Doom on my 486 and saying to myself "Wow, it can't get much better than this!"

GeeBee

awesome....

if BLACK was "gun porn", what does that make this? The greatest most hardcore gun porn ever.

3inst3in

More riffs!.

PsycheE

Good trailer.

@Sparkyuk:

wellp, wait for the game when its released if you have the virtue of patience lol. Cuz there is always a chance that the pc version will be well... you know how it is gonna be... :D

Fauxe

JACKAL! A JACKAL!! IS IT A JACKAL? IT'S A JACKAL! A JACKAL! IT'S A JACKAL, RIGHT? A JACKAL!

Also, I want to buy this graphically impressive game. Immediately.

icegoat

is this... afrika?

@fenderfuel08: I think you missed the part where its open world, and calling Halo innovative? o.O

Looking very sparkly, so many PC games to get this autumn, my wallet is protesting already.

Riotpoll

@fenderfuel08:
Er, giant open environment. Incredible map editor. Unscripted dynamic combat.

Sure, those are not completely new concepts, but this game seems to nail them. Also, Crysis and Farcry had fantastic gameplay. No game matches the interaction with the environment during combat Crysis had. And Farcry was very ahead of its time with its gigantic environments and multiple approaches to combat. Not EVERY game needs to break new boundaries, judging by your avatar you like the Zelda series. That series hasn't had a breakthrough innovation since Ocarina of Time, yet they are still incredible games.

mattmoto

between this and Fallout 3, come this Fall i will have zero social life. yay...i guess.

F22

Over the past few months FC2 has become my most wanted game, im just not sure whether to go PC, 360 or ps3 when i buy one. good problem to have i suppose

Sparkyuk

@fenderfuel08: Did you play the first Far Cry? Paper-thin plot and very fun to play. I played Crysis - paper-thin plot and was merely... okay to play. Not overly great. So I'm actually holding a bit of hope for Far Cry, because even though it shouldn't look as pretty as Crysis, I'm hoping it will be more fun to play.

@DethKl0k666:

That African rock was actually pretty cool lol. Anyway, the game does look t3h uber and it looks like its setting a new standard for wat an "open world" game is.

Pbombas

This trailer kind of reminds me of this other one:

[kotaku.com]

Yeah that kinda makes me a hypocrite, I know.

amazinglarry

I'm skeptical about this Far Cry 2 game because it looks like another graphics pusher like Crysis and nothing more. For a game to be a good shooter these days its has to have some sort of highly innovative feature. Bioshock had plasmids and RPG-style weapon upgrades and customization, Halo 3 has the grenades/melee/shooting combo with a heavy emphasis on vehicle combat. Anything less than these types of innovations falls flat in my book.

In my opinion Crysis was a stereotypical shooter with pretty graphics and unless they show some innovative features for this game it looks to me like it will fall into bland shooter with pretty graphics territory.

fenderfuel08

I'm going bannanas for this.

@dLMN8R: Don't forget Left4Dead

But hey, recent history was last year buddy-- Halo 3, Darkness, Call of Duty 4, Crysis and Orange Pack were all worth it. With the exception of Darkness all those were released end-September to mid-November.

Absent Blue

i like the song

DethKl0k666

This is on the 360? Wow. The one game I really want to play is Left4Dead. I want to see how the 4 humans versus waves of human controlled zombies is going to work.

ReyDEEEEZY

Pretty death.

sir_carrot

Looks good, I just hope it plays better than Far Cry 1 (and also Crysis) as it was a gorgeous game with really horrid gameplay.

photoboy

Holy crap...this game looks amazing. Hopefully it'll half as good as the Uwe Boll version.

@beem: Those "knuckleheads" have openly stated that they're excited and impressed to see what Ubisoft has done with the project, and are at the same time no doubt happy that they could cash in on selling the IP to them, allowing them to build CryEngine 2 which they've already licensed to several developers, with no doubt more to come in the future.

It's not either/or - Crysis Warhead and Far Cry 2 will each hopefully be incredible in their own right, for different reasons.

@nflsonic:

It is. I believe that is what I saw. Correct me if I'm wrong.

@candlebougie:

"Black Hawk Down" - Barra Barra

candlebougie

Between Far Cry 2, Crysis Warhead, and STALKER: Clear Sky, September and October are going to be two of the best months for shooters in recent history. Two games with massive, open-ended environments, dynamic AI, yet radically different atmospheres. Another game with huge, wide-open levels, but a more linear and scripted experience, promising to fix the problems of its predecessor.

can't

freaking

wait

dLMN8R

Must buy. I actually think the atmosphere is a lot better than Crysis. This game looks fuggin' awesome.

sandal-hat17

thats a song from the "Black Hawk Down"-Soundtrack

candlebougie

Holy mary!

I need to find out the name of that song.

That was quite the trailer.

Made the waiting for the heavy update to fnish loading that much easier XD

Terrorsaur.

Having seen the FC2 videos, those knuckleheads over at Crytek are probably going back & jacking off to Far Cry 1 PC. Fantasizing about the Far Cry they could never make.

beem

If it was gorgeous on a 360, imagine how nice it will look on a decent pc gaming rig.

Covert_Knight

Yeah, when I saw this trailer the other day, I was amazed. Awesome music and great looking atmosphere definitely made me put this on my watch list.

Hopefully it's coming out for the PS3.

nflsonic

Wasn't this covered a few day ago?

Blazinfire0

Awesome. This game will eat Resistance 2 for breakfast.

pot3ntial2suck

Double post?

But that trailer's song is fucking awesome.

tironabardheblu

barrrrrrrrrrrraaa barrrrrrrrrrrraaa

I can't wait for this game...on the 360 at least *pats crappy computer*

Sandbox_Emperor

It's Deja Vu, all over again!

good song and sync up though.

FATDAN

@taftsearlobe33:

Because it's epic enough for a double post - that's why.

Shocky-

I love the trailer but why are you posting it again? I mean you did do the story a few days ago? Does Kotaku not remember what articles it posted?

taftsearlobe33

@Jayge: I love it when people say a variation of "old news" because it means that they legit have nothing to contribute to the conversation at hand.

Jesus, my computer tower is shriveling up in impotence just from that trailer. And I cringed when he yanked the spike out of his thigh. That must've gone straight through the bone =_=

Aethyr

They don't call it Slowtaku for nothing, do they? This is at least a week or a week and a half old.

Jayge

You gotta love the company that makes the trailers for Ubisoft's games. The music they choose is pretty awesome: Assassins Creed got UNKLE, Prince of Persia got Sigúr Ros, and now this...Really great stuff.

squrler

I just love the environments and gameplay and basically everything in Far Cry 2! Man this looks AWESOME! Can't wait to get it for my PS3....seriously man it makes me feel like I'm right there...

xMatt

@Far Cry 2: "Furthermore, the player's feral abilities introduced in Far Cry Instincts and its expansions will not be returning in Far Cry 2."

Instincts was the only Far Cry I played and I have to admit the Feral Abilities were the only reason I liked it so much, and without those it would have just been a pretty jungle shooter. There was something so rewarding, not to mention funny as all hell, about running up to the enemy and sending them flying with a feral attack.

hollowfreak

Far Cry 2 vs RE5 vs Afrika ....

... so who has the best graphical representation of the savannah?

DARTH_TIGRIS

please tell me this is coming out to the PS3... and not an 360 Exclusive.

drunkentyger

Just watched the video of The Map Editor For farcry 2 and it looks freaking awesome!

Woylez

This game looks amazing.

absolutely stunning.

and isn't the music from "Black Hawk Down"?

baconfrenzy

this is what I'm excited about - loved Far cry, but I spent more time with the map editor than any other game of the last couple years:
