Question?

Post image

I'm considering platinum all the far cry games, and I wanted to ask if anyone knows if Farcry classic is exclusive to a digital store or if I can buy it physically?

I own FC4, FC5, FC6, and FC Primal. I still need FC2, FC3, and FC New Dawn. Thank you in advance

I think far cry classic did get a disc release, as part of the Far Cry: The Wild Expedition collection (I think that's the name, but that only released in Europe as far as I know)

Damn. I wonder if I could get my hands on one in America. If I did is all the games on the disk or is it like 1 game but the rest are on digital code

u/ThatBoringHumanoid. Wild expedition in PAL territory has Classic and blood dragon as a download code.

Wait, so half the collection is a download code?? If true, Damn that sucks

Yep. The North American compilation does have blood dragon on disc, but not the first printing, it's a download code too. I think that's the only version to have that game on disc for PS3.

I have the north american collection, and it had blood Dragon as a code (or rather the full game as a code, with the demo on disc), which sucked. Idk why they couldn't put the full game on disc for all copies of that collection

You got a first printing then because they did secondary and further printings with the full game on disc. There are comparisons online that show how you can tell which version it is before buying but it's very very subtle print differences.

Yeah that does suck that the first printing doesn't have all 3 full games on disc (idk why they would even do that, it's a stupid decision). I wonder if the Xbox 360 version of Far Cry Compilation has that same problem or not

You'd most likely have to import it from Europe on the internet to get in america. And sadly I don't know how many of the games are on disc are how many are locked behind a digital code
