Ubisoft’s much appreciated Far Cry 2 will be making its way to the PS Store this week along with other weekly content that includes the demo of Madden NFL 12. Driver: San Francisco, a sequel to 2004’s not-so-adored Driv3r will also land for the PS3 as a demo.
First released in 2008, Far Cry 2, an open world FPS comes to pass in a modern-day Central African nation which is facing anarchy and civil war. A strange character named The Jackal has endangered thousands of lives in order to feed his own aspirations. Players must eliminate this notorious arms dealer once and for all. While doing so, they can make use of cars, trucks, boats and even hang gliders apart from the range of weapons available in the game.
The excitement surrounding Madden NFL 12 refuses to die down. And the demo looks set to help the process. Notable new features to the game include a fresh collision system, advanced defensive A.I. enhancements and the addition of custom playbooks. The final title, to be released later this month, is touted to embrace more than 100 new features and enhancements in its franchise mode and also a progression system that allows fans to control the growth of their star in Superstar mode.
In Driver: San Francisco, it is revealed that both Tanner and Jericho have survived the shootout that took place at the end of Driv3r. Charles Jericho has now landed in San Francisco and this spells trouble for the city. Tanner is the only man who can halt his progress. The game will supposedly feature elements like unique car handling and renewed playability and is expected to release next month.
Though the pricing of Far Cry 2 has not been revealed as of yet, this week’s PS Store update has certainly got us keyed up.
