Pretty nice if you ask me. TeamXbox has posted ( water ) comparisons between Xbox 360 and PC versions of Far Cry and guess what? Xbox 360s looks better! Yeah ! ....excuse me for that....of caurse 360s version looks better ! Well just take a look at this video (http://xboxmovies.teamxbox.com/xbox-360/2898/Far-Cry-Instincts-PREDATOR-Xbox-360-vs-PC-Water-Comparison/) and you'll get the point of this thread. You can read a short article here (http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/10229/Far-Cry-Instincts-PREDATOR-Xbox-360-vs-PC-Water-Comparison/).

"Just as Far Cry redefined real-time graphics on the PC, Far Cry Instincts PREDATOR promises to the same on next-generation consoles. Ubisoft has rewritten many of the shaders used in vegetation and water and improved the lighting model, taking advantage of Xbox 360's multi-core next-generation engine for improved performance."

Nice find!!

That water looks awsome!! Although I'm a bit weirded out due to getting excited about videogame water :o

I have PC FarCry and have to say it's quality...I just hope the changes for 360 include a decent end-of-game boss...the PC version didn't and it was a real let-down.

That is just simply amazing.

I've never played FarCry, but only heard good things about it. Not sure about this one yet.

Farcry was an amazing title on the PC (Spec permitting) The XBox version was good, a great laugh in multiplayer and a great level editor. The 360 version will look really spanky and, hopefully, have all the features that made the PC and XBox versions so great.

Water in games has always been a big thing. Sounds odd but in the search for realistic gravity, deformation and animation, water is a big thing. The first water I saw that made me go "wow..." was Half Life 2. Nothing shows off a 3d engine like some amazing water and Farcry 360 looks like another stunning example of water done well.
