    My opinion about Far Cry 2 did a complete 180 over the last few years. When it first came out, all I remember thinking was that it was less technically impressive than Crysis. (I was just obsessed with graphics in 2008. There were many of us like that. I have changed.) Now I see it as the most distinct entry in the series.

      And the graphics still hold up! I’m playing it now, and it looks great.

      Somehow, I never got around to playing any entry in the Crysis series. I should fix that at some point. I hope my 3080 is enough to run it.

        They definitely do! A very distinctive look for FC2, another thing that sets it apart from the rest of the series. (I mean, OK, Blood Dragon is very distinct, too, but that’s kind of another thing.)

        Unfortunately, there are still no computers that can run Crysis well. Some things are outside the reach of current science. Maybe in another ten years or so, we’ll get there. It’s still worth playing, though.
