As part of HMV’s initiative to expand further into the gaming market, they are offering an exclusive deal where if you preorder Far Cry 2 with them (due out this Friday), you get 4 exclusive missions for free with it. These missions promise to set the scene for Far Cry 2 and act as a prologue to the game, giving you some extra background information on the scenario in which you will play.
It is to be assumed that the game will come with an unlock code which you can enter on Xbox Live, PSN store or whatever they’re planning for the PC. The missions will presumably be available as DLC further down the line.
This is a UK exclusive for HMV so you won’t get it anywhere else. We do not know whether this is being offered in other territories, but keep an eye out.
Details on the individual missions over the break…

Like any self-respecting British male who resists the nipple-toting allure of the red-tops and opts for The Guardian or Telegraph instead, we class ourselves as highly intelligent beings here at GoY Towers. Except that we read Ultimate X-Men.
To this end, we like to think we’re clever enough to outsmart even the wiliest of AI foe, and take great satisfaction in doing so. All GoYers have almost certainly set themselves personal targets whilst scouring the interwebs for E3 goodness, and I’m no different. My aim is to bring any games that look like they might command just as brain as brawn to your attention.
Enter Far Cry 2, galloping gloriously into our gaze like the proverbial gazelle which we’ll undoubtedly be able to shoot throughout the game:
I’ll be adding more to this post throughout the conference, and using my weblord powers to drag it kicking and screaming to your attention, should any updates occur. Not that I’m guaranteeing they will - maybe FC2 is the only decent thinking man’s game coming out in the foreseeable future? Hopefully Operation Flashpoint 2 might have something to say about that… we eagerly await Codemasters…
