No more tears: Far Cry 2 going to PS3 (http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2008/01/03/no-more-tears-far-cry-2-going-to-ps3/)
Filed under: News (http://www.ps3fanboy.com/category/news/)
Previously announced exclusively for PC, Ubisoft has just revealed that Far Cry 2 is also being developed for Xbox 360 and PS3. (Could it be the poor sales (http://www.joystiq.com/2007/12/14/crysis-sales-in-crisis-ut3-gets-fragged-too/) of Crytek's much anticipated PC-only Crysis?) Developed by Ubisoft Montreal, this FPS has you running and gunning through the wild fields of Afrika Africa. Ubisoft is touting its custom-made video game engine, and as seen from this old off-screen PC footage, it looks pretty good (albeit familiar).
According to the press release, "Far Cry 2 is scheduled to ship fiscal 2008–2009." That's a pretty vague and unhelpful release schedule. For more info on the game, you may want to check out the next issue of Official PlayStation Magazine. They're totally going to crack the game open.
We're glad to see yet another good looking FPS head to the PS3, but we're still more interested in what the talented guys at Crytek might be cooking up (http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2007/08/23/crytek-deep-into-ps3-development-creating-secret-technologies/) ...
