Far Cry 2 (commonly abbreviated as “FC2 or “fc2″) is an open-ended first-person shooter developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It was released on October 21, 2008 in North America and on October 23, 2008 in Europe and Australia. It was made available on Steam on October 22, 2008. Crytek, the developers of the original game, were not involved in the development of Far Cry 2.
Ubisoft has marketed Far Cry 2 as the true sequel to Far Cry, though the sequel has very few noticeable similarities to the original game. Instead, it features completely new characters and setting, as well as a new style of gameplay that allows the player greater freedom to explore different African landscapes such as deserts, jungles, and savannas. The game takes place in a modern-day East African nation in a state of anarchy and civil war. The player takes control of a mercenary on a lengthy journey to locate and assassinate “The Jackal,” a notorious arms dealer.
Far Cry 2 is still a popular game and the open world environment can be taxing on even the latest hardware available today.

The Gigabyte GTX 660 Ti OC Windforce manages to outperform the last generation GTX580, by around 5 frames per second. Fantastic results.
delicious. well worth the money. AMD must be worrying at this price…..
Im waiting for 660, it should be under £200 and hopefully much better value, like the 460/560.
Thats a really good price. they were close to £300 when I saw the overclocked models, last time. wonder if they will drop to £230 before christmas.
I hear these cards aren’t selling well. I think the price is still too high for gamers in general.
I own this card and I have OCed it a little higher than the displayed “Maximum” OC’s. I’ve managed to get a very stable 130MHz core and 140MHz memory boost from the stock clocks. (Using MSI Afterburner)
Hi Vincent, nice one. You got a good card 🙂
