Hi all!

Just reviewed Far Cry from GOG.com:

So I've made another video, this time taking on-board feedback and, well basically just: MORE :)

Far Cry (2004)

It is 10 years ago that Far Cry launched.

What a great game and so I just had to do a video covering Far Cry!

It is quite technical because running a 10 year old game on modern computers has some challenges.

Topics I cover:

- Buying the game on Steam, GOG.com and eBay
- The specifications of the computer I used
- Configuring the video and sound options
- Enabling 16x AF texture filtering
- Creative ALchemy for restoring surround 3D Audio and EAX environmental effects
- How to enable HDR High Dynamic Range
- Black screen issue when loading the game
- Corrupt textures on some Nvidia drivers
- Patches and version differences
- Mods
AMD64 64 bit patch and Exclusive Content

I then cover the game sort of like a review:

- How the story begins
- Basic controls
- Use of the compass
- Health, armour and sprint bars
- Using the binoculars
- Switching weapons mode
- Swimming and diving
- Vehicles
- Enemies raising alarms
- Different ways of approaching the game
- Using stationary turrets
