Far Cry Franchise Debuts on Wii with Far Cry Vengeance

Today, Ubisoft officially announced the title and details for its upcoming Far Cry video game for the new Wii console- Far Cry Vengeance?. Based on the highly-successful Far Cry Evolution, Far Cry Vengeance expands on the experience with a new storyline, new maps and new weapons. The game takes advantage of the revolutionary Wii Remote and Nunchuck allowing players to drive, shoot, slash, jump, and climb their way through a rebel-infested, tropical hell. Far Cry Vengeance will be a Wii launch title.

About the Game

The incident at Jacutan Archipelago changed Jack Carver?s life forever. Jack has had little choice but to embrace the disturbing talents unleashed by Krieger?s unique brand of folk medicine. Back at his home port in Micronesia, Jack thought he had finally found paradise. But when a gorgeous woman draws him in on a dangerous heist, their sun-drenched days take a chilling turn. Hunted for a murder he didn?t commit, Jack must draw on his most savage instincts to make his predators his prey. Game features include:

Wii Unleashed ? Dig deeper into the power of the Wii Remote and Nunchuck through survival tactics that include driving, shooting, jumping, balancing, climbing, grenading, and Far Cry?s ever-popular Feral attacking.

Weapons ? Choose from a variety of weapons in a struggle to endure the rebel-infested jungle. Take down an unsuspecting victim from behind with a machete or meet the fight head-on with your machine gun.

Vehicles ? From ATVs to hovercrafts, pickup trucks to Jet Skis, drive over, around, and through vicious combat situations.

Interactive Environments ? Utilize the lush, tropical surroundings to your advantage, using stealth to sneak through the foliage past unsuspecting rebels.

Unleash the Wrath ? Feel what its like to be the predator, not the prey, as you unleash the beast within. Jump higher, run faster, and slash with more fury than all of your enemies combined through the animalistic feral abilities unique to the Far Cry series.

Multiplayer ? Challenge your friends in Far Cry: Vengeance?s frenetic Chaos mode as you battle to be the last person standing.

Wii is now doomed for failure. That game can go screw itself.

I'm almost sorry. Far Cry on the 360 has made me a very, VERY, angry man.

LOL

B4 this thread derailing goes any further, can I ask why you hated it so much?

I had you ummm... blocked at that other place so whatever grievances you stated, I missed out on.

I thought it was pretty decent but I wasnt expecting much. The water was puuurty anyways

In the end, its good that the wii is even getting such games. It might not be desirable but the GC not getting such titles made some gamers think it wasnt being supported and was losing steam in the grand scheme of things(and they were correct).

Blocked at the other place I'm shock I only played the demo. Its Brew who hates it. I was just wondered if he thought of showing his distaste using his Rotweilers in the same manner you displayed your distaste for that other gaming system. I don't think the thread derailed at all.

Spoon - if you wanna get a feel for why Brew didn't like it, download the demo on Marketplace and give it a whirl. hehe...

When I played it (first on the Xbox, then on the 360) I noticed a few things. The AI was bad. The graphics weren't that pretty. And the multiplayer portion was more glitchy than COD2 (prepatch) and Saints Row (prepatch) put together. Maybe I didn't give it enough time or something but I wasn't impressed at all. And I was really interested in this game at E3 2005 and after it came out on the PC back in the days. Never got it for the PC tho. Maybe I'll go that route instead so I can at least check it out.
