Anyone planning on getting Far Cry?
My cousins broke the strap on Thanksgiving when I brought it over. They should all know better, they at least play GBAs and DSs.
Ordered replacement straps.
The IGN review of Farcry is up, and it doesn't look too good.

The first screen shot in that review almost does look like a really good N64 game. In fact, it looks just about as good as Turok Dinosaur Hunter. I knew the Wii was underpowered, but is it really THIS BAD? I thought the Wii was twice as powerful as the Gamecube? If this is true, why do parts of Red Steel, Farcry, and even ZELDA (fog INSIDE some of the dungeons!?) look more like the Nintendo 64?
n64.com used to rock.
Yeah, IGN swallowed and ruined several good sites. :cry:
Well, I have to admit that Turok doesn't look quite as great as I remember it looking. So, I guess that Farcry does look a little bit better. I still see too much of that fog going on in the background of the Farcry screen shot though. Seriously, I thought we were all finished with using "fog" to hide pop-up once the N64 era was over with. I'm honestly not really thrilled with the way the character model of that enemy looks either....and Farcry's flat trees look about the same as Turok's to me.
I guess I am still spoiled from playing games like Gears of War and Rainbow Six Vegas on the 360. However, the Gamecube can do much better FPS style graphics than that...Metroid Prime blows away those Farcry screens.
It's clearly a launch window cash run from Ubisoft. Their real developers are working on 360/PS3.
