A tropical paradise seethes with hidden evil in Far Cry, a cunningly detailed action shooter that pushed the boundaries of combat to shocking new levels.
Freelance mariner Jack Carver is cursing the day he ever came to this island. A week ago, a brash female reporter named Valerie had offered him an incredible sum of cash to take her to this unspoiled paradise. Shortly after docking, however, Jack's boat was greeted by artillery fire from a mysterious militia group swarming about the island.

With his boat destroyed, his money gone, and the gorgeous Valerie suddenly missing, Jack now finds himself facing an army of mercenaries amidst the wilds of the island, with nothing but a gun and his wits to survive. But the further he pushes into the lush jungle canopy, the stranger things become.

Jack encounters an insider within the militia group who reveals the horrific details of the mercenaries' true intentions. He presents Jack with an unsettling choice: battle the deadliest mercenaries, or condemn the human race to a maniac's insidious agenda.

I bought this from Fry's in their discount section 4 years ago for 9.99 and was shockingly surprised how good the graphics were and how immersed I became in the story. Most games become boring at some point in the linear story, but Far Cry made me want to find out the end, like any good movie and that's exactly how I felt playing this game. I truly felt it was the first cinematic... full review

Sandbox game at its best. (by drmlessgames drmlessgames)
Far Cry is one of those surprise unannounced, unknown titles that one day suddenly took over the gaming sites hype devices, and stole the big articles away from the likes of doom , or unreal tournament. Not only because of their shiny, amazingly great levels, but for it's style of gaming.... full review

This Game ROCKS! (by geckofish52 geckofish52)
Well the game is old, witch means you can max out the graphics fairly easily. And they do look awfully good. Especially in the latest 1.4 version where you have HDR and the ability to put on various visual filters, for example there is a mode to make everything look cold, there is the enhanced color mode, the tropical paradise mode, and my personal favorite, the cartoon mode.
