I should not need to explain this one.

FC2 is the only good Farcry as far as I'm concerned.

I'm not a fan of the current trend of remakes, but a re-release of Far Cry 2 might be the only thing Ubisoft could make that I'd still be interested in.

The degrading weapons, fire physics, and stealth* were leagues better than anything in the later games. If they fixed the instant enemy respawning, added more fast travel stations, and toned down the OP DLC guns that made scavenging weapons pointless it'd be a nearly perfect game.

* YMMV. It had "fire from the brush and reposition while the enemy searches for you" stealth rather than the "crouch behind someone and you're completely invisible" stealth of later games. I liked it but a lot of people hated FC2's stealth gameplay.

I like 3 and 4 too. But I agree, they hit really differently
