Jack Carver is cursing the day he ever came to this island. A week ago Valerie, a brash newspaper reporter, offered him an incredible sum of cash to sail her to this unspoiled paradise; but shortly after docking he was greeted by artillery fire from a mysterious militia group swarming over the island. With his boat destroyed, his money gone, and 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 help him survive. And the further he pushes into the lush jungle canopy, the stranger things become...

It's A YO GAME.Great Game! Almost same as return to castle wolfenstein but with a forest environment.
Simply, it blends realism with the virtual world. And it is entertaining almost as much as half-life
I think it's really COOL shooter with REALLY cool(for 2004!) graphic. So if you can't go to Miami bich or...another warm places=), and you can't play Crysis(or for same reason don't want it), you shouls play FarCry.
9/10 for crazy story in the end(looks like in Crysis, but with flash monsters)
This game still looks amazing, thanks to the beloved cryengine that always take visual improvements ahead of us. This game is a great title, the story is great, the environments are great, the graphic is still amazing! What's so awesome about first-person shooters with awesome storylines is that you can roleplay and either be a tough guy or a sneaky assassin. Overall this game is hard, at least that's what I thought of it, but you wont give up because of that. Find a way through the enemy and a new experience awaits!

This game is cool
but it's only for free for americans :(
Super
exciting to play just sometimes very difficult (e.g. these unseeable monsters)
Spannend zu spielen, nur stellenweise ziemlich schwer (z.B. bei den unsichbaren Viechern)
This game is insanely difficult. There, I said it. It doesn't allow quick saves, and you have to find medkits to replenish health, and there are one or maybe two medkits in every level. It's insane. If you do play it, I recommend playing it on easy at least the first time through. If you can beat it even on easy, I'll be impressed.
About the story, what story? Oh wow, your on an island with a mad scientist, how unique. What about the characters? Was there any character development throughout the game? Nope. Gamers seem to think of story as "Why I'm shooting stuff." Well, it's not. Story is about characters, and the characters in Far Cry were shallow, to say the least, and their motives were cliched.
I'll admit I enjoy playing the first few levels of this game, but after that it gets insanely difficult. This game was worth the five bucks I payed, but only because it's got an awesome editor. And now that I have Crysis, well, that kinda made Far Cry obsolete.
