What players say
Players are split on whether Far Cry holds up. Many praise its groundbreaking open-ended level design and challenging AI from 2004, but just as many find the enemy vision through walls, infinite rocket spam, and bullet-sponge foes frustrating. The second half's monster encounters shift into survival horror territory.
