Ingame videos of Far Cry Instincts: Predator
2006-02-23 01:38:02 by snoopers
Ubisoft kindly sent us a preview code of FCI: Predator, and as you all should know, when it comes to gameplay videos, we're never reluctant to do our duty. So, here are four exclusive gameplay clips, showcasing a few minutes of the three maps that were available on our disc: the beach, the creek and the river in all their 60 ips glory.
[Update]: 4th gameplay clip added (boat trip and buggy cliff jump).

Of course, keep in mind the game is still under development, and don't be shocked if you see several graphical glitches or weird AI behaviors. We can't guarantee these will be totally eradicated till the game is out, but the devteam is working on it for sure.
Anyway, the differences between this next-gen version and its big sister on Xbox are pretty small, so let's cut the talk and directly introduce the content of the three clips you're about to see: if you like warm beaches, blue oceans and white sand, the first video is for you. Those who prefer the brutality of bloody fights are gonna be more interested with our second clip, the extreme sports lovers will be delighted to watch the little deltaplane fly featured in the third clip, or even the boat trip and the buggy ride offered by our fourth and last clip. Enjoy !

Hey guys? Hey guys, can I ask you some gameplay questions, seeing as how you have playable copies and all?
Are there difficulty settings in these new games? How difficult do you find the game, and have they improved the AI much at all?
Thanks,

Identical to the Xbox version minus draw distance, 60FPS, 720p and water.
Unless they add new game content and/or remake the textures, this is not worth 60 bucks at all.

Btw, the 2nd video explains the super powers. As for price, $40 for this would sound fair--or even $30. FCI got a good score from most places so the gameplay is solid. Oh well.

Considering that this game is two games in one, with graphical enhancements on each, I don't think $60 is that bad a deal compared to other $60 games out there.

The preview build is only playable in normal difficulty, so we can't really comment on the AI.

720p xbox game with nice water effects... everything else looks the same as the xbox version... i would rather prefer if it was farcry on PC... lazy development..ubisoft are just trying to make a quick buck ..common guys surely the xbox360 is capable of more.. example..battlefield 2 modern combat on 360 looks 100 times better than the current gen..

the environment need to come alive ex- you should have goats reptile loads of different animal running around to bring the game alive and they should at leat include rain storm.

I'll gladly pay the 60$ for this, since
1) I never played the original Far Cry Instincts anyway
2) Graphics are good enough for me from this vids, and on 720p widescreen and 5.1 surround should be ok. Besides beach levels on GRAWF trailer didn't look incredibly superior at all
3) FCI got great reviews, and it's way different from FC for PC which I finished.
4) Both games should give supposedly 20 hours singleplayer plus multiplayer, I think that's worth the price.
5) There are not many other options sadly on XB360, many games are coming on march but not a single new fps so better this than nothing.
Off-topic : any news on Black being retro compatible? tia.

Well, they're .avi, so download the ffdshow codecs (link on the download page) and watch them with "Media Player Classic".

Looks bad. Seems like they cash-in releasing same game whit HD resolution (+that better looking water, wohow!). And what the deal whit the (lack) of fysics?
It was quite great on orginal pc. On old xbox version it was allmost all gone. Even ragdolls look so laughable. Is all this happening on planet earth? It was even more horrible on live games. There was no difference between ATV or hovercraft, and it lagged like hell. Fysics looks just as bad on 360 version.
Would have been so mutch better if they would have ported old PC version to 360 instead of that sh*tty xbox version.
