You will need an Ubi.com account and you must live in the U.S. to play the game... (so says the web for Far Cry). Quote:
Its about the only way I'd ever swallow in game advertising (free to download). I would NEVER accept in game advertising in a fully paid for title, I don't care how fucking clever designers feel they are about implementing it. Its pretty fucking awful that Fileplanet is suggesting you download a few thousand megabytes of data off your own bandwidth without a little prior information on how the in game advertising works and effects your computer (its effectively starforce for ads...) |

And, yeah, speaking about German guys being able to play this: All he needed to do was to change his account on Ubi.com, namely his location from Germany to the United States. :P |
"The prince trustily held his sword, prepared to face the monsters the sands of time spawned in front of him, hoping he would have enough energy left in him to face his foes, he took another bite of his trusty McBacon..."
No, doesn't work for me. I actually managed to get SoT for free on a magazine, so I'm quite glad for that :) |
Interesting, the in game advertising topic is coming up in several areas....i for one will NEVER support it, there is enough such drivel on TV.
Far Cry deserves to be played without such interference, it is an awesome game and has a great community supporting it with mods equal to or even in some cases superior to the original (Matto 4) Sands of Time, a lovely game, but beware a sequence in the intro section before you even get to the saveable game that I have NOT been able to get past, the Prince has to jump back and forth UP a narrow chute by a huge head and the PC controls will not allow him to make the climb, even on the user forum on ubi others have had the same problem, with a consol no prob but with a PC i have been trying for three months to make it up that head, and so far not a peep out of UBI technical staff who i finally asked to contact. will see what happens, but the game itself is really beautifully done even if the leaping about mario bros style is a bit overdone, i dont know why people cant make a adventure exploration game instead of a fingers gynmastics exercise....but this is a nice title. |
Around here, these games can be picked up for $10 or less on the bargain shelves. I'll pay the $10 bucks just so I can have a hard copy instead of seeing out of place in game ads or whatever
|
I... um... lied about my nationality and tried Rayman Raving Rabbids.
The adverts are really annoying. After every mini game you have to watch some crazy advert for McDonald's, which gets really tiresome when some of the minigames take about twenty seconds to try (read: fail). If I actually wanted to play this seriously I'd go out and buy a copy. Particularly since it doesn't even cost very much now. |
If these games are effectively free along with the adverts, would it then be fair to say that the same games could be legally downloaded from torrents?
|
If you download the same games (that is, with ads included) it shouldn't be a problem. I've just seen them being redistributed on gamershell.com.

^ Only if you torrent the games avec la in-game advertising, I guess. :D

Heh, RR is effectively a collection of fun mini-games, no? I'd think that allows for a lot more advertising options than all the other games combined... Still haven't gone for POP, but Endosanity's right: None of these games cost more than 10 bucks anyway. Ok, now for another free game WITHOUT advertising involved: To celebrate Command&Conquer's 12th birthday along with gamers from around the globe, EA released Command&Conquer Gold for free this weekend! Check out http://www.commandandconquer.com/ if you wanna. |
Now you can't activate the games anymore. :( I was looking forward to play Prince of Persia.
