When Crytek made the original Far Cry, it blew everyone away with its visuals and open ended gameplay. Now developers from Ubisoft Montreal are working on Far Cry 2, which looks pretty sweet, even as a pre-Alpha version. The 13 minute video above showcases the game, with developer commentary. While it doesn’t look as good as Crysis, it has all the gameplay elements; fully destructible environments, open ended gameplay, nice visuals, day/night cycle, and you can even paraglide across the map.
