Far Cry 2 Headquarters

Hopefully you're beginning to get a sense of Far Cry 2's emphasis on team work. Sure, there's a free-for-all mode, but it's under the more complicated setups that the game really comes into its own. Aside from standard and group-based deathmatch, there's Capture the Diamond (a bling-based Capture the Flag) and a slightly more innovative mode labelled Uprising. Here each team is randomly assigned a leader, who must then occupy and take over three control points on the map. Once this is done, the opposing leader must be assassinated in order to claim the win.

Multiplayer producer Richard Gaetan told VideoGamer.com in an interview, due to be published early next week, that Far Cry 2, along with other games with user-generated features, like the PS3's LittleBigPlanet, is evidence that the industry has reached "Gaming 2.0".
