That's an approximation of the HDD space which is required by the game, which is completely wrong. The game has a download & install size of not more than 4GB.

@Amir.php, don't buy Far Cry 2. It's not worth buying. There are better games like Assassin's creed, Left4Dead, DeadSpace, Prototype etc etc.

FC2 isnt worth to buy an original

get originals of those which has gr8 online capability.

And whete is the 3.7GB specified?
Ubisoft site or ny illegal/warez site?

normally torrent/warez ones will be highly compressed for easy download. They use high compressions like UHARC or the likes. So after extracting the contents it migh probably be double or more of its original size.

and the developer is assuming we are installing in C:\ partition and they estimate the recommended free space taking into account
*space for installation
*swaps
*temps
*saves and profiles
*and some miscellaneous

so it might be 12Gb in this case:-P

go for any other game like call of duty world at war or any other which has a good multiplayer option......farcry 2 is not worth buying original...

Now i have purchased it.
Not played more, but Not so bad.
Looks Dunia engine developer have created a new game mixure from some popular games:
1. Story idea from Gta 4.
2. Environment some from crysis and some farcry.
3. Half life2: Only Fps view in cars also.
4. Basic AI: Makes it farcry 0 not 2.
In the last... "Maleria wala player" needs anytime medicine.
But looks cool for average gamer..and run fast in comparison of crysis on highest setting on 2 gb ram and 8400 SE.

farcry2 running very well on my 8400 se(high setting with 4x AA) without slowing game. Your card is more powerfull so no doubt it can render game more fast on very high setting also.
I have average system:
intel dual core, 2 gb ddr2 677 mhz, xpsp3, nvidia 8400SE.
Hope you have more powerfull system than my....Farcry 2 will definitly run faster on very high setting with 4x to 6x AA.
By default if sysem takes low setting..Dont bother...Go to graphics setting and set very high for all.

@Amir.php, what resolution? Did you check if it's 800x600 or even lower? If that is the resolution, then playing at that resolution on LCD monitor totally removes the visuals and is not at all worth playing.

Hi, i always play my every game at resolution 1024*768...And for farcry2 also.
After installing every i do first task to set its resolution to 1024*768@75 hz(my crt monitors optimal resolutin )if not by defaut.
I dont like to play any games at 800*600.
