The Leipzig Games Convention (GC) is a great convention in Europe since it is open to you, the public, the very people who are anxiously awaiting the game. We’re excited to be at GC next week to reveal some new things for Far Cry 2! Won’t be going to GC? Keep checking this space as well as the forum because we’ll be posting updates for you all week from the show. If there’s something special you’d like to see from GC (not necessarily in-game requests) but anything you’d like to see from the show, post it up here and we’ll try to find it for you.
To kick off GC, a brand-new trailer is on Gametrailers.com. Head over there to check it out! To accompany the new trailer, we put together some commentary on it to give you some insight into it. You can view it on farcrygame.com.
Interested in the music behind Far Cry 2? Check out this new interview with Far Cry 2’s composer Marc Canham.
Blast from the past…here’s our report from GC last year!
