Far Cry Announced for Xbox 360 - First Screens

Today Ubisoft, one of the world's largest video game publishers, announced that its award-winning Montreal Studio is developing two new titles inspired by the recently released Far Cry Instincts video game.

Far Cry Instincts Next Chapter (working title) for the Xbox introduce players to an entirely new story, characters and game features that reflect and improve upon the critically acclaimed elements of the first title.

Far Cry Instincts Predator for Xbox 360 will feature both Far Cry Instincts Next Chapter and an enhanced version of the original Far Cry Instincts game. Offering the kind of lush and deep natural environment true to the Far Cry brand, Far Cry Instincts on Xbox 360 will captivate gamers with its enhanced graphical reality and gameplay. Giving gamers the opportunity to discover the Far Cry universe in an optimized, high-definition environment, the game takes advantage of Xbox 360's multi-core next-generation engine for improved performance. Gamers will experience advanced pathfinding and new enemy and vehicle artificial intelligence for improved chase scenes and more enemies on-screen at one time, allowing for more adrenaline-rushing fast-action sequences. Far Cry Instincts Predator and Far Cry Instincts Next Chapter are slated for release in spring 2006.

"Far Cry Instincts quickly became one of the most talked-about games of 2005 because of its blend of high graphical quality, wide open environments and immersive gameplay elements," said John Parkes, EMEA Marketing Director for Ubisoft. "Ubisoft is confident that Far Cry Instincts Predator for Xbox 360 and Far Cry Instincts Next Chapter for Xbox will be among the best games this year."

I'm not impressed, graphically. But Far Cry is a fun game regardless of the graphical overhaul or not.

2 - News?

News? This was announced three weeks ago. It's been in the GameStop computers for a while now? Here's some more news for you: Far Cry 1.5 is also coming out for the XBOX 1.

3 - Looks nice

It looks nice, I think we need the full high res versions to see the improved graphics fully, it's not easy to see much when they're small!

I'll prob pick it up, as long as they have the level editor for MP!

Is that a blow-gun? Lol. Yeah, it's clearly a blow-gun. Cool.

8 - Graphics dont seem that good

Well, these graphics arnt what i was expecting from the 360 version. I mean you cant compare these to PC Far cry on high res with HDR lighting. And i was wondering, does 360 have HDR. I hope some more pics will come out, and hopefully the 360's power will be used so the game looks better than the screens.

My question becomes can the Xbox 360 version play with the Xbox 1 people? Seeing how other than graphics, they seem to be the exact same games.

It's okay people, the game is still in development (for 360), Im sure the graphics will be impressive. Besides, if it's a great game like everyone says then graphics won't have to be very impressive. Just give it some more time, and be patient, it'll be great!

Great, another First Person Shooter. I have nothing against these games, I love them and I can't wait for Black on the X-Box, but it just seems that a huge majority of games that are out or are coming out are first person shooters.

Where's all these wonderful RPG's we've been promised. Where's all these Prince of Persia type games. It's what the 360 is lacking at the moment.

I'm sure Far Cry will be great, but I just wish there was a little more variety on the 360 that all these first person shooters. I know I'm going to get blasted for saying that, but it's the truth.


12 - I agree with number 11

The xbox 360 is starting out with a lot of fps yet again. I'm still happy with the first xbox. The xbox has a good variety of games that I play. Now I'm just waiting for samurai showdown v and black.

Nowhere near the quality of the PC version, when do we get to see some next gen graphics?

Needless to say that this is not next Gen even though the graphics overhaul.
Why do we put up with this nonsense.


15 - weak
Unregistered - henchman 01.12.2006 12:59
this game was no where good as all the reviews. and yes, the driving did suck in this game (xbox version). why are they coming out with the exact same games for the 360? quit bringing over this crap from the xbox, and actually design a NEW game.

The screens seem to be comming from the new xbox version, and scaled quite a bit down in quality for the internet. Also seem early production releases.

Farcry is an amazing game once you get over that it is different from halo, so all you whiners go stop crying whenever a shooter is different, it doesnt mean its bad.
