one other thing guys. I was looking around for a demo for far cry and found the full version at (
www.gamershell.com). Is that legit, and is it really the full version.
I only ask cause I'm very anti piracy. I've never downloaded a game that I hadn't already paid for. But gamershell is a legit site, so I'm guess it is. Just seems too good to be true. But can I download with a clear conscience :confused:

Did you read the description? It says:

Update:
The promotion is now closed and it is no longer possible to play the game for free. If you are interested in further information on this title, visit the Ubi official website at (

Whats far cry like?
Imagine Crysis on Delta with no cloak where enemies can spot you from two times the Crysis' distance. And you can't quicksave, the game operates on the checkpoint system. And your health doesn't regen but it's not a problem because you're dead a second after someone sees you anyway. And then you meet the mutants, which I only heard legends about since I dropped the game after my quicksave got corrupted(I used a hax to do it).
At least that's how I remember it.

Koki just summed up everything I hated about Farcry.

Problem is I played it on the xbox, which I gave to my nephew, and I heard the playstation version is terrible
Ah, Far Cry Instincts for consoles was an entirely separate game from what appeared on PC. It was developed in-house by Ubi Montreal and you had feral powers or some shit? I never played either game.

As I said, they only thing I didn't like was that I was always low or out of ammo,
Okay, set your assault rifles to semi-auto (single-shot) mode by pressing X and learn how to utilise cloak effectively.
I.e. Aim for a head-shot whilst cloaked; switch to strength mode to steady your aim and then shoot the guy; finally recloak.
Alternatively you could sneak up on enemies whilst cloaked; grab them using F; switch to Strength mode and finally toss them several metres in the air.

Have you actually played Crysis? If not, then do so and judge it on its own fucking merits.
Yes, yes I have. And it sucks.
I disagree with you, for once. :p

Was talking about FEAR, but FarCry Instincts was a hell of a lot of fun, becomming the hunter was done very well and the game has a much more sinister feel. PC version is the better game but it was a nice twist. People shouldn't complain so much about the difficulty, you are alone on an island with highly trained mercenary's it's supposed to be hard, and with a quiksave system it would be easy to manoevre yourselve in an unbeatable sitation. It is fun finding out how to get the upper hand. You are always outnumbered and it really feels like you are being hunted, creepy as can be, terrific game.

I've read that AI have superhuman reflexes and bionic vision, which sounds hardly fair. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Yep, Crysis is all about cloak and shooting people in the face. Sadly, many people don't realize this and try to play it like Quake and then they complain it sucks.
