The only currency worth a damn in Far Cry 2's Africa is diamonds. People use diamonds to buy guns, with which they threaten people to extort more diamonds. Ad infinitum.

Feel that? That sort of dull ache in your upper thigh punctuated by short bursts of stabbing pain? That's your wallet, screaming as the top quality titles keep on popping out into Autumn. Are the fire and diamonds of Far Cry 2 enough to justify its place in your budget? Watch this before deciding.

We've all seen level creators before, even though they've been less popular of late. Far Cry is stepping it up, however, and its level editing tool has been attracting praise like a free bar does journalists. But just how flexible is it? Well, as this video shows, pretty darn flexible.

In a continent rife with corruption, money is even more of a necessity for those who want to get things done.

Part three of the dev diary series and the team is making its way into serious Africa. Not the tourist Africa but the Africa of angry lions and unpleasant diseases. Oh, and the armed guards are refusing to come with them...
Far Cry 2 - Heroes die first Video

For many people, a fresh start is a new job, or a new marriage, perhaps a new line in slightly outré knitwear. For the player of Far Cry 2 it's a chance to man up, pack up your arsenal and take on a continent. Always let the heroes die first.

The Far Cry 2 team continues its fact finding mission into deepest Kenya as the executives make their way into the largest national park in the country to film, record and try to avoid the violent intentions of the country's flora and fauna.
Far Cry 2 - Night time Video

The cover of night affords a wealth of options to the stealthy operator, granting the opportunity to sneak around a well defended position, carefully placing lead into the back of bad guys' skulls.
Far Cry 2 - Boat trip Video

There's no merrily merrily here, this trip down the river is all business. Nice bit of DIY on the engine there, it's probably how they did it on Apollo 13.
Far Cry 2 - River approach Video
24/09/08 [1 comment]
A slightly jumpy trip through the jungle as an enemy position on the bend of a river receives some unwanted attention from a few rockets. We're not sure if the wildlife deserves that sort of treatment, though. What was that anyway? A giant tapir?
Far Cry 2 - Stealth assault Video
24/09/08 [3 comments]
Much as in the first Far Cry, running straight into an enemy position will soon have you decorating the foliage with your delicate innards. Tactics are a must, as this sneaky assault on an oil pipeline outpost shows.

The PC and console versions of Far Cry 2 ship with a level editor, and this particular demonstrator has made a whole map in under an hour. What a show off.

Researching a game as large as Far Cry 2 takes a great deal of effort. Art directors need to know the exact qualities of the light, animators the way the animals move, level designers the ways in which the people live. That, and it's a grand excuse for a big old jolly. However, it's not all plain sailing and pretty sunsets.

Not a lot of practical use to non-US residents this, seeing as we can't actually take advantage of the offer in question, but it's a nice example of some of the game's mechanics nonetheless.
Far Cry 2 - Total immersion Video

Far Cry 2 is a pretty hot ticket right now, with people literally becoming excited about its release. We're are some of those people, so it's with great relish that we devoured this dev diary on Ubisoft's approach to ensuring total immersion whilst playing. Warning: Contains unpleasant dislocation animation.

No, we don't know which console. You'll have to admit, however, that it all looks rather nice.
Exclusive: Far Cry 2 - Map editor Video
19/08/08 [13 comments]
It's always nice when you get some extras in the box. You know, art, making of vids, that sort of thing. This, however, is truly impressive. A fully functional, easy to use map editor with more assets than Lola Ferrari. Also doubles as an excellent garden planner.

This pre-Leipzig trailer is essentially a slightly re-edited version of the features video from yesterday, although sans Kimmy and with a sexy soundtrack. Exciting times.

We take a trip to the land of moose, lumberjacking and government-subsidised game development to see what's cooking under the lid of Ubisoft Montreal's pot of delights. Far Cry 2, Shaun White's Snowboarding and Prince of Persia all await you within.

We've officially moved Far Cry 2 in to our 'exciting' drawer, and every trailer we see is cementing that opinion. The proof, however, will be in the flambé pudding.

Why opt for the simple option of popping a foe's melon directly when there are so many other more entertaining options? There's the obvious environmental kill, gas tanks and so forth, but our personal favourite is the 'shoot someone so he screams in agony, attracting a friend, who you also shoot. Nice.

Ubisoft's safari sequel to Far Cry is put through its paces on 360 and PS3, not to highlight any differences, but to illustrate its equal wonderfulness on both machines.

The shiny savannah of Far Cry 2 is a fully realised ecosystem, with those procedural skies that Attenborough is always on about.

Ubisoft's continuation of the Far Cry franchise was initially buried under comparisons with Crytek's separate development path, but the Dumia engine has proven that the game is making great strides of its own. Here's hoping that there's substance underneath all of that style.

Due out this autumn, Far Cry 2 is the nothing-to-do-with-Crytek sequel to one of the PC's most interesting shooters in years. It's also looking surprisingly good despite the dev switcheroo.
Far Cry 2 - What to expect Video
07/05/08 [7 comments]
Far Cry 2's Dunia engine has drawn some appreciative gasps around the EG office, what with it's rather lovely depictions of the African savannah. Details on what the game would actually consist of have been like hen's teeth, however, so this low-down is a welcome addition.

More tech-demo footage from the Dunia engine, depicting the day/night cycle of Far Cry 2. Everybody loves God rays after all...

Some footage take from Far Cry 2's impressive looking Dunia engine. Obviously trees won't regrow like this in-game, as Ubisoft representatives were keen to point out at GDC, that would be stupid. Nice though eh?

Far Cry 2 might not have generated the levels of excitement surrounding the release of Crisis, but the game's bespoke engine is looking really rather lovely. Plus, we like zebras.
