	Far Cry (PC) Preview at GameSpy.com
		Like just about everything else we've seen of Far Cry, the entire level was a small tropical island, with lots of hills, lush vegetation, and the sun shining off the ocean surrounding the level on all sides.
		Unlike most games, Far Cry doesn't lock you into the weak weapons, either; if you want, you can toss the machete in favor of the hand-held rocket launcher (although there's something to be said about sneak up behind an unsuspecting enemy and catching them off guard with the blade).
		Far Cry's sniper rifle is extremely deadly, and takes time to master.

	Far Cry 1UP - Find Articles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Far Cry is a first-person shooter so polished and thrilling that the occasional smudge on its canvas stands out like an oil slick against an otherwise vivid depiction of sci-fi flavored tropical combat.
		Far Cry was originally displayed as X-Isle, a futuristic dinosaur hunting game primarily intended to be a showcase for the mighty power of the GeForce 3.
		Far enough apart to make trudging through infuriatingly hard levels a chore, these checkpoints are one of the major points of contention I and others have with the game at present.

	Far Cry Instincts Review for Xbox at Gaming Horizon
		Far Cry Instincts is more of a retelling of the story on the console, like how Batman Begins has nothing to do with Batman but tells the same story.
		In Far Cry Instincts, your main objective is to find and rescue Val, the woman who hired Jack to take her to the island and may - or may not - be the reason that every human being with a gun has been pointing them at you.
		Far Cry’s graphics on the PC were just astounding, especially the intensive water effects (much of the game takes place on or near water) and Far Cry Instincts does a pretty impressive job of mirroring these effects.

	AtomicGamer - Far Cry Preview #2
		Far Cry has been shaping up to be one of the best shooters of 2004.
		Far Cry is being created by German developer Crytek and will be published by Ubisoft.
		The rocket launcher in Far Cry is a bit different than you might expect, as it has an actual scope and the projectile is a bit slow.

	Amazon.com: Far Cry: Computer & Video Games (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Far Cry, though, is not only notable for being the first entry by Crytek into the crowded PC first-person shooter market – it is quite possibly the best one-player, action-intensive shooter ever.
		Far Cry has little employment of the much-ballyhooed physics aspects of such games as Half-Life 2, Deus Ex: Invisible War or--to a lesser extent--Doom 3, yet what it has works well enough within the scope of the game.
		Far Cry requires more sneaking around, use of cover, diversions, etc. All in all, it requires more of a tactical approach, rather than a "bust in the room and mow 'em down with the shotgun" approach.

	Review - Far Cry // PC /// Eurogamer
		Although Far Cry was perfectly capable of rendering the world in high detail on a GF4, it had an annoying tendency to pause the scene every so often as if it needed to catch up.
		All through playing Far Cry, though, it was impossible to escape the fact that, despite the stunning views, multiple routes and cleverer-than-usual AI, it still largely conforms to the rigid FPS rules that have been established for over a decade.
		It's as if all Far Cry wants to be is a sub-Arnie run and gun, but all evidence to the contrary screams that the game is worth so much more than that.

	Far Cry (pc: 2004): Reviews
		Far Cry is the total package; outstanding gameplay, completely groundbreaking graphics, and a storyline and plot filled with surprises and heart pounding excitement.
		Far Cry is worth a look, but be warned; you are going to need a beast of a computer to run this as it was intended to be run.
		Far Cry dose that, instead of being locked in a tiny room with lots of enemies and ammo, you in a big open environment with a few enemies and not very much ammo.

		This is not the case in Far Cry, although when you've been chased by a gang of professional bounty hunters through a rusty World War II aircraft carrier and back again, you might begin to wish they were still deaf and dumb.
		Far Cry is good, but it would have been better if it only had human enemies.
		Unfortunately, Far Cry's intricate early levels give way to pitched battles or gauntlet runs in which there is precious little opportunity to work out anything clever and you are reduced to getting lucky in order to progress.

	First Impressions - Far Cry // PC /// Eurogamer
		For graphics whores, Far Cry is most certainly something that will cause a lot of excitement - although we'd have to voice concern that the enemies all seem to have the same appearance and have an overly generic look to them from what we've seen so far.
		As far as the gameplay is concerned, you start off armed only with a pistol and a machete, and it's clear that you have to tread a little carefully if you want to live more than a few seconds.
		Doffing its cap to Halo, Far Cry has adopted a limited arsenal system, although in this case you appear to be limited to four weapons as opposed to merely two.

	Featuring Far Cry Preview at ActionTrip
		After showcasing Far Cry at the E3, Crytek decided to keep things quiet for a while, so we had to wait until the GDC (Game Developers Conference) to find out how their technology is progressing.
		Far Cry will take us on a thrilling and perilous trip to a picturesque tropical island sometime in the year 2020.
		In addition to these cool features, Far Cry is going to take us throughout a variety of delightful tropical settings ranging from dense forests and jungles, to lavish tropical coast lines, and other exotic exteriors (and even some claustrophobic indoor locations); all of which are fully rendered and abundant in various background detail.

	Featuring Far Cry Hands-On Preview at ActionTrip
		As I arrived at the location of the Far Cry event, I was awash with a strange sense of nostalgia.
		Far Cry will prolly be sweet but its only the first game to employ the cry-engine.
		I'd hope that the Far Cry developers are focussing more on gameplay and their AI at this stage, while optimising the code later on, when all the important stuff has been sorted out.

	Gaming Illustrated - Far Cry (PC) Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		The Far Cry demo is possibly the most talked about demo since the Doom Shareware release and has introduced the gaming world to what was a bit of a dark horse.
		Not to everyone's taste I know, but so far it hasn't really bothered me. The fact that AI is so unpredictable does make up for this, a few tricky battles I have needed to replay have often had quite different outcomes.
		The sound of the explosion traveled so far that a small patrol group on a nearby beach jumped in their jeep and drove up a mountain track to support the five men I was assaulting.

	Far Cry - Ferrago
		The first runner from the gates is destined to be Far Cry, a title that shares the characteristic with many of these appetising shooters in that it is not a sequel.
		Any fan of the FPS must have gawked at the incredible tropical paradise that is the setting for Far Cry, a lush island that you half expect to see popping up on the telly getting the treatment from one of those jammiest of television personalities, the travel presenter.
		Far Cry's story involves mercenaries, secret islands, mysterious experiments, a damsel in distress and you.

	Far Cry Review - PC
		Far Cry is a gem, a game that combines an incredible technical presentation with some of the best single-player FPS gameplay in a good long while.
		Far Cry is an extremely immersive game, combining excellent AI (some of the best unscripted AI ever) with exciting gameplay and a huge world to explore.
		Far Cry is a fantastic game, mixing some great concepts and carrying them through to execution.

	Far Cry - Ferrago
		Sam journeys to a tropical island that's a Far Cry from paradise...
		There are certainly parts of the game where frustration sets in, but this is always cancelled out by the burning desire to get to the next stage, an urge that Far Cry seems so adept at incubating in all who play it.
		Far Cry's only real crime is the fact that you need a Kray to run it at High Detail levels; otherwise it is definitely one of the best games around at the moment.

	TweakGuides.com - Far Cry Tweak Guide
		Far Cry is a game I'd heard little about until the Far Cry Demo was suddenly released in late January 2004.
		I bet you're wondering "If Far Cry is so great, why does it need a Tweak Guide smart guy?".
		Well Far Cry's major strength is also its downfall - the amazing CryEngine game engine from CryTek is a demanding mistress.

		The result is Far Cry, a first-person shooter set across a chain of islands.
		Nearly all of the vehicles in Far Cry are drivable, and many of them have room for more than one passenger to make for multiplayer fun.
		We'll have to wait and see how Far Cry finally turns out, but even the single level I had the opportunity to play was screaming with potential.

		Far Cry: Instincts sees you stuck on a gloriously rendered tropical island filled with lush jungle, limpid pools and heavily tooled-up mercenaries.
		Despite most industry reviews to the contrary, Far Cry is a painfully dull and unoriginal shooter with a few 'feral' abilities thrown in to liven things up a bit or possibly to distract from the fact that Far Cry runs out of ideas within the first few minutes of play.
		Far Cry decides to shoot itself in both feet and pull out its teeth.
