Warpy · Nov 16, 2004, 09:43 AM

All screenshots are 1024x768 4AA and 16AF with highest detail, fps is super smooth.

MythicaL · Nov 16, 2004, 10:09 AM

Nice try Monkey

Good pics there too Dom, can't wait to play it

technonerd · Nov 16, 2004, 10:13 AM

Excuse my language, HOLY SHITE!!!!! Man with 9800 pro, the graphic is even awesome.

MythicaL · Nov 16, 2004, 10:14 AM

I'd say; FarCry > Half-Life 2 > Doom 3.

Warpy · Nov 16, 2004, 12:50 PM

Ummmmm, I think I'd say Half Life 2, Far Cry, Doom 3. Half Life 2 has such an interactive atmosphere and excellent storyline. Whereas Far Cry to me just lacks in atmosphere - but compared to other titles Far Cry kicks ass and is still my fav game.

Soilwork · Nov 16, 2004, 01:07 PM

from most difficult to least? the thing I hated about Far Cry was always sneaking around like a rat til the action started

Dom · Nov 16, 2004, 05:54 PM

I'm stuck at the level with all the explosive barrels. Anyone help a n00b out?

EDit: Nevermind, I got it.

~~REGENERAT1ON~~ · Nov 16, 2004, 06:13 PM

damn HL2 really kick ass

Some excellent screenies there!

Geminiwave · Nov 17, 2004, 12:57 AM

how do you blow up that freakin helicopter! Its pissing me off SOOO MUCH!

can anyone help with that? hahaha

btw its fun. I love what they've done with water. above water looks almost as good as farcry. Below water is BETTER than farcry. its just beautiful.

Dom · Nov 17, 2004, 02:00 PM

Is it just me or is this game much scarier than Doom 3 (which was not scary at all)?

gonz0 · Nov 17, 2004, 07:31 PM

Just wondering if anyone has seen the man in the blue suit with a briefcase? I've spotted him on a few occasions, once at the damn area while your on the airboat, i happened to glance over the side and i saw a man looking at me. As soon as i looked at him he turned and began to walk away. I spotted him another time at the end of the area where you have to kill the snipers that are in the dark windows. It was all the way at the end wher eyou couldnt go any further, i looked through a crack in the train and i saw him again. the third time i saw him was when i was in the buggy driving up the coast, i looked over at a bluff and there he was standing there, once again as soon as i saw him he turned and walked away. It really creeped me out each time. I think it is the man who was talking at the intro of the game.

Sandok · Nov 17, 2004, 07:48 PM

At the very end of the game, he TALKS to you... And sorta does weird stuff... I'm telling you, he ain't humain!!!!

He talks to you at the end of the first one too, thus Half-Life 2's story.

He's the G-man.

Sandok · Nov 17, 2004, 07:59 PM

What is a G man? God I'm telling you, I'm sure he's a xenian... Some weirdo alien...

Dom · Nov 17, 2004, 08:12 PM

Government employee.

pr0digal jenius · Nov 17, 2004, 08:12 PM

G for government......how original

Senor_Mota · Nov 17, 2004, 11:32 PM

Half-Life 2 isn't that great...it just looks really good. I just don't like the premise behind it that much.

technonerd · Nov 20, 2004, 06:55 AM

I think G is for Gay. He's gay because he is hiding alot and weird. Also when I see him far away hidden like waldo, sometimes I see him with a man

MythicaL · Nov 20, 2004, 09:26 AM

I'm stuck on this part. You gotta go to the rooftop and disable some striders and I dunno what to do next. These guys said 'go to horse' or something, but there is no way out of this place! Bah!
