The game is certainly looking tasty and one hopes that Far Cry Instincts' gameplay can live up to the visuals. Today we've a selection of nine new screenshots from the game, which you can take a look at right here (http://xbox.boomtown.net/en_uk/articles/art.view.php?id=8477).

I never got the chance to play this for the PC even though it looked interesting. From what I understand, there were two fairly distinct camps within the "likes" and "dislikes" of Far Cry, but the setting alone makes it look at least somewhat appealing. Are they changing anything for the Xbox version or are they more or less just making a straight port of the game? It looks like something I might want to look into, but I wasn't sure what the general opinion of this game was here on the boards. The graphics are at least perty but we all know that graphics don't make a game better or worse.

My friends and I all loved FarCry. Just an entertaining, solid FPS built on one helluva graphics engine (especially with the HDR implementation in the 1.3 patch). The gameplay itself is nothing groundbreaking or anything, but it gets the job done admirably.

Anyone know if the FarCry engine has been licensed for any other games?

I want to know this as well. What an amazing engine, totally blows Doom3 engine out of the water.

Not into console FPSs but this looks really good. May have to check it out.
