Having recently purchased a kick ass laptop I’ve been able to enjoy all sorts of games that I wasn’t able to before. Last weekend I received an email from GameSpot offering Far Cry for a measely $9.99. I read the reviews and decided to take the plunge, heck for that price I couldn’t lose.
So I ordered it online and downloaded the 2.5gb game which took about 3 hours. I ran into some issues trying to install the game but contacted the company that sold the game and within a day received the help I needed to get the game to install.
Now I have it and I don’t have the time to sit down and play it but I did spend a brief stint with it. I immediately went into the video options and cranked them way up. Set the resolution to 1900×1200x32 with 8x anti-aliasing, high-res textures, the whole nine yards. My laptop wasn’t even breaking a sweat, cool stuff.
