The first was fine, but damn it, I can't stand having a 30% chance of hitting someone with a sniper rifle (at a fair range, mind you) when I have the skill over 100%. And don't even get me started on that damned useless sub-machine gun.
LOL! Try killing an ant with a spear, kick or punch! Or a scorpion... Ouch! And the turn based thing was too much for me... But, my kids are 8 and 10 years old and the just loved it. Well worth the six bucks I paid for it.

Heh, the addiction starts at the age of 8. That's when i got Fallout 2 for the first time.
*now's the moment when you get worried because your kids might turn into me*
PS - wait 'till they get to the Enclave...

Far Cry 2 is a fantastic, and beautiful, game BTW. It's not perfect (so I can understand why some people really hate it), but it's got the best sense of being there I've experienced in a game for a long time.

Typical. I splash all my money on a car and suddenly a '360 can be had for £130....

That's due to overproduction and poor marketing.

Sounds complicated (that's why I'm not a fan in computer game). How many sticks do you have?

I don't have analog
sticks. I have a single joy
stick. With a shonky trigger.

Well, you have a stick for the game, and a stick for the...other game. I hope the right one has the busted trigger.
