Far Cry 2: PC and Console Comparison #1
A "new" review of the E3 2008 appeared on the English site Tom's Games. It contains a small clue for the graphics on PC and on consoles.
Tom's Games
Visually, there is no comparison between the PC and console versions. That may sound like an obvious statement, of course, but it's worth emphasizing...
The difference between the two versions is according to the review minimal, but a few differences apparently exist. Firstly there should be better looking weather effects and fire propagation on PC version. Also the AI should act significantly better and more varied on PC than on consoles. You are naturally free to form your own opinion. However, we will have to wait for the release of Far Cry 2
- whose date hasn't been released yet.
Thanks to Schattenschritt for the notice.

Far Cry 2 - CNET Preview
CNET has written a new preview about Far Cry 2
. For all interested of you here a short part of the full preview.
CNET
We took our flamethrower, lit up a patch of dry brush in the African savanna, and observed as the flames spread to a small bungalow from the prevailing winds. Just as a group of enemy soldiers ran over to investigate the damage, we ambushed and mowed them down with our M16. We're not in the tropical island jungles anymore.
