Thats pretty amazing for realtime. I played the first game far cry a few years ago when I still played video games. The graphics were stunning then. It was the first game where the world was so big and detailed that I would just run around looking at stuff. The water environments were amazing. This might be a game that I have to play again it looks so good. Must resist evil powers of video games nooooooo!
I am wondering though is there a point when it starts to look so real that when you shoot people it gets downright creepy?
Check out the screenshots I found here
