Far Cry
Although the replay
value is not high, due to lackluster online multiplayer options, Far Cry still
serves as one of the most popular games around. I still remember Far Cry as the
first most video intensive game I have ever laid eyes on. The game shocked me
when I found out my high end gaming machine could not handle it with full
details turned on. Far Cry is based off DirectX and is a great benchmark to
test for the video card's DirectX capabilities. This is where the 6600 GT
started to fall behind, and quite badly. ATI's dominance with DirectX
based games is something Nvidia has yet to conquer. The 6600 GT does gain
quite a bit of improvement after some overclocking.
