Far Cry 2 first teaser: "Mwanzo"

Ubisoft has released the first official teaser for Far Cry 2, entitled "Mwanzo." The teaser looks to be explicitly aimed at showing of the new Dunia engine built for the game, and we must say it does an admirable job. Sporting grass and trees that wave in the wind, realistic wildlife, and a detailed village, Far Cry 2 is looking very nice indeed. Unfortunately, being the teaser that it is, the video doesn't give us too much more to work with. For instance, the video is done in the style of a film reel, so the colors aren't as vibrant as they should be. Also, there are no humans in sight, so we'll have to hold judgment on actual character models. Next stop: gameplay (we hope).

I'm looking forward to FC2, but that trailer was pretty lame.

I'm wondering if the 360 will be able to handle that game well or will be it on par with Crysis.

No matter what it was, the game ingine is impressive, too impressive for the 360 I say, or any console for that matter.

A new graphics engine is nice, but they need to do more: stackable achievements that don't require 6 playthroughs to complete every difficulty. Smoother difficulty curve that doesn't *require* cheats to beat "predator". Better animations (both character and lip sync). Still, I'm looking forward to some actual game play. Any idea why "cry" isn't in the title?
