Far Cry P2P defendant pens a heartfelt "not guilty" plea

Last year, lawyers from the US Copyright Group filed a federal lawsuit against 4,577 anonymous Internet users accused of sharing the film Far Cry through BitTorrent. Fed up with the fact that nearly everyone sued in the case lived outside of her jurisdiction, federal judge Rosemary Collyer eventually forced the US Copyright Group to drop most of its lawsuit targets in December 2010. The case continued with a few anonymous defendants and a single named defendant—Adrienne Neal of Washington, DC, where the case was brought.

Neal was served with court papers four days after Christmas, and her response was demanded by January 19. No response came. US Copyright Group lawyers then had the court clerk declare Neal to be in default, and last month they asked the judge to fine Neal $30,000 plus more than $3,000 in attorney fees.

Really?
Of all the movies they chose to sue people over. It's this piece of crap?

superadvanced4828d ago

never even knew this movie existed

DaCajun4827d ago

I heard about it from someone and heard it was utter crap.

LMAO I want to see these sorry losers try to use the excuse that "I would never buy this anyway, so it should be ok to pirate."

There you go you sorry ass pirates you shouldn't pirate crap. First because it's crap and second because it's crap, Wow how pathetic are these people. You deserve to be sued just for being stupid and pirating crap.

ATiElite4828d ago

Far Cry the movie was an absolute piece of shit! they are trying to sue people so the company can get back the money they spent making this piece of crap which they won't cause all this money paying lawyers is even more of a waste.

Actually they should sue themselves for making this gutter of a movie.

Vesemir4828d ago

What's more disgusting... ??
The Pirates or the Lawyers ?? Hmmmm... What a dilemma

limewax4828d ago

Agreed, Pirates pretend they arent screwing you over, Lawyers show you the lube brand

Primal Rex4828d ago (Edited 4828d ago )

They have to make back the money wasted on this god awefull movie some how !!!

FantasyStar4828d ago

God damn this movie....

Brings back bad memories.

rodeoo4828d ago

I watched the first ten minute. It was so bad i had to delete it.

NCAzrael4828d ago

I saw it on DirecTV one night. I caught it towards the end and watched about 10-15 minutes and then had to turn it off. I was kind of sad 'cause I really like Emmanuelle Vaugier. I don't know how Uwe Boll gets hot chicks to do his movies, but man he knows how to tarnish somebody's career.

DaCajun4827d ago

Deleted it? ahh so they'll be coming for you next little Mr. pirate?

Far Cry Villains To Appear In A New Comic

This is interesting news for comic and Far Cry fans as something new in the universe for the game is always welcome. Villains from popular Far Cry games are transported into prehistoric times by the priestess Batari, who has pulled them from their lives before they've committed their most heinous crimes.

"Villains from popular Far Cry games are transported into prehistoric times by the priestess Batari"

Why do they make every f****** thing goofier and goofier

Watch Dogs become whacky, Assassins Creed jumped the shark, Ghost Recon become less serious now this

Garethvk50d ago

I think it is the trend. They look around and say ok; what can be done that will not infringe upon the next game and this is what happens. I heard rumors of the next Far Cry offering may be in Alaska and there was also an Online offering coming. So we get this to tide us over.

Farcry 3 and literally thats it! lol

GamingSinceForever433d ago (Edited 433d ago )

I recently tried 3 for the first time but the frame rate was a turnoff.

I liked 5 and 6 though.

banger88433d ago

If you have a Series X or S, the Xbox 360 version runs at 60 fps with fps boost. It's a shame the remaster doesn't.

isarai435d ago

2 and 3, pretty much the only ones i really enjoyed. 1 was amazing for the time but aged quite poorly. 4 has the elephant gun, all i can praise from any entry after 3 lol

cooperdnizzle433d ago

Ummmm 3 than stop.

Okay maybe two as well. But yeah probably 3 and then move on.

JEECE433d ago (Edited 433d ago )

Far Cry 2. People constantly rant about games now being too easy, holding your hand, having too many unnecessary RPG-lite leveling features, etc. People specifically complain about open world games being too focused on tons of collectibles and "checkmarks" that just waste time.

Far Cry 2 is an answer to all of those complaints. It was made by Ubisoft before they fell into all the traps discussed above (and before they started inserting towers into their games to defog the map). It has respawning enemies, weapons that degrade, and the collectible diamonds are very useful in the game (which you find in a similar way to the way you find shrines in BOTW with a radar system). The map you have is an in game item you pull out while playing, not a pause menu that is unnecessarily detailed. Also the enemy AI and physics are much better than later entries in the series.

It has a mixed reputation because people at the time said it was too hard, the weapon degradation was annoying, and then respawning enemies were annoying. FC2 came out in 2008, so this was before games like Dark Souls and BOTW had come out and made it cool to like these types of features.

XbladeTeddy433d ago

Far Cry 2, the one with the AI that find you through walls and trees, can one shot you from a mile away and have 100% accuracy? That was frustrating not fun because cheap AI.

JEECE433d ago (Edited 433d ago )

Uhh, I mean, it isn't one of these games where once the enemies have detected you they will magically forget you exist because you walked behind a wall or went into a bush. And yeah the AI isn't stormtrooper level accuracy. Again, these are positives, not negatives to me.

To be fair, I'm really directing this at the people most critical of "Modern Ubisoft" or "Modern Open World" design elements. Like the type of people who fawned all over Elden Ring because it had a clean UI because they are so burnt out by the "checkbox" type of open world design.

If you like those types of games, then a later FC game like 3 and especially 4-5 would be more your style.
