    Much better optimised, i don't even think the original Far Cry was open minded to this many configurations, pretty much every graphics card released in the last 5 years is supported.

    Regardless of the fact that those are acceptable requirements, it still excludes my 8-year old beater computer. I gotta upgrade.

    I'll be getting FarCry 2 on PS3 though. Would cost me less lol.
