Put a few bucks down to hold a copy of Farcry at my local EB yesterday. I got a retail box with 2 cd's for preordering. One was the first demo on cd and the second was a cd of some "never" seen trailers and screensavor and wallpapers and stuff.
Pretty cool..but wonder how they can afford that with a game thats only 39us Retail.
Darn game better be in today!!!!!!!!

I hear ya. I'm counting the seconds. (Obsessive? Damn straight I am.)
I have directions already plotted out and have money in hand. I'm only 15 minutes form the nearest GameStop.
Anyone know what time they open in NJ?

If this game would have had all they hype of HL2/Doom3 for as long as it did it would be hard to say just how many copies they would have sold.
Going to be one of the biggest games ever made and a real good shot at GoTY.

I have been gaming since DOOM. This is defintely worthy of GOTY. Hands down.
I love the ideas of Doom 3 and HL 2, but Far Cry just rocks a bit harder. These guys did an awesome job.
I hope they do an expansion! http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/images/smiley/16x16_smiley-very-happy.gif
