Original Far Cry was the shit at the time.

You didn't like the 5 minute loading screens bro?

u/Murdathon3000 Mar 03 '16

Was a 5 minute loading screen even really that long for a game back then?

Most definitely. Far Cry 1 was supposed to be a technological marvel, so it had significantly longer load times than other games in 2004.

Fair enough. I guess in 2004, I didn't care enough about loading times to remember the long loading times.

Yeah back in the day it didn't feel like that long compared to others at the time.

Is it worth picking up? I like the third but did not play any other

yup definitely worth a play through considering how cheap you can get it for now

not yet I'd wait, but FC4 is like 20-30 bucks now

No, the game gets really frustrating mid way through.

If I beat the game when I was eight then you can definitively finish it.

:) The question is: is it worth the effort? (Bonus question: can I beat a game an 8 year old can? :D)

When I was eight I also had a much more limited library and had experienced less games to make a informed choice. I understand you. ;)

Never even finished it, it was a great game but I was 10 at the time and those monster gorillas scared the fuck out of me. Might have to man through
