8: Far Cry 2
What’s there still left to say about Far Cry 2? It’s one of the most open open world games. A game that defies traditional gaming structure. Getting to a mission across the vast map is as much fun and as dangerous as any mission in and on itself. After awhile the game opens up, allowing the player to choose how to approach the game on the fly, going from all-out-guns-blazing to silent sneaky stealth in a matter of seconds if wanted.
To top it off, Far Cry 2’s Africa is huge and beautiful to behold. It’s a dangerous place, with gun toting mercenaries hiding behind every other bush. It’s an experience quite unlike any other. In a setting that very few other games dare to tackle, and arguably one of gamings best renditions of the Black Continent.
