This game isn't a Far Cry game. This game isn't even really a first person shooter. In a first person shooter, you'd spend most of your time shooting things. In this game, however, you spend the vast majority of your time driving. And not only are you driving constantly, you're driving vehicles that are so slow, you could legitmately run places faster with Feral Speed in Far Cry Instincts or Maximum Speed in Crysis, while looking at flat grey and brown jungles and savannahs, all to do anything. The lack of a proper fast travel system and the fact that most missions are always on the other side of the map just adds more to the monotony. This is the crippling flaw with Far Cry 2. Even though there are other issues, such as the broken stealth and simplistic shooting mechanics, those pale in comparison to how excessive the driving is. It's easily one of the most boring games I've ever played. You want a good Far Cry game? Go buy Far Cry 1 instead. And if you want a game with great attention to detail and fun sandbox gameplay, go buy Crysis and Crysis Warhead instead.
