Far Cry 2: A Fair and Balanced Blog
ReclusiveSpirit | 10:36 AM on 07.23.2008 10 comments




I'm not too sure if I'm a little late to the party when it comes to this trailer for Far Cry 2. But after viewing it, I was quite astonished that I hadn't seen it plastered all over Fox News yet.

I thought by now we would have heard Bill O'Reilly on the 'Factor blasting this games text manual description of killing and how it is damaging our children's ability to learn to kill on their own. And I'm quite certain that Geraldo Rivera and his mustache would have been on their way to Canada to investigate Far Cry 2 developer, Ubisoft Montreal (They're French!!!) and their possible terrorist connections.

Maybe this game is too small to make a blip on their radar. I suppose not enough money behind it to matter to them. If it was GTA:IV or Halo 3, maybe then it would have caught their eye. I guess my expectations were too high for them. I always thought Fox News was about the children.



In a totally unrelated note: "Damn, that trailer looked sweet!!!"

Another nice write-up Spirit.

Are we hating on the big news outlets a bit lately?

By the way, what did you do with the funny pic that was in this blog?

@ReclusiveSpirit I'm at GameCamp right now and I watched it with one of the staff, and they thought it was fucking brutal.

@RB2010 and the staff and fellow members of GameCamp. Hello and good afternoon. Fucking brutal is a good definition of said trailer. Or let's talk about the quasi-photorealism at times. Damn.
