Far Cry Instincts for the Xbox is a really fun shooter that has an insane single player game and an even better multiplayer experience. Throughout the single player game, you go through many different levels that all play extremely well. Unlike the PC game, this console version is very straight forward, usually with a go from A to B kind of feel. This isn't a bad thing in any way, especially since there are usually small areas with a couple ways to complete the task at hand. Overall, the gameplay is amazing and is truly a great FPS shooter. One thing I loved while playing this game was the stealth aspects you can use. You can crouch and stay prone which will allow enemies to not suspect you coming. You can also set up traps which once you get the hang of it can be a lot of fun. You can also throw rocks and stones to trick your enemies to think you're somewhere else, which allows for a quick unsuspecting kill. The last huge thing that makes the single player experience so exciting the feral abilities. When using these, your character (Jack Carver) uses his animal instincts and turns into a whole new person. He has this one ability where, if close enough to your enemy, you can lunge toward and send your enemy flying through the air. This is SO much fun and my favorite of all the different abilities. There are also abilities including night vision and super speed which are very fun too.

The best thing, in my opinion, is the multiplayer aspect of this game. There are the basic deathmatch and team deathmatch, along with other modes including Steal the Sample (probably my favorite, plays much like Capture the Flag). There is a lot of diversity in the maps which makes for a great online experience. Another great thing about the multiplayer experience is the insanely good map editor. This is something that I've always thought would make a great addition to a game, and this game has it...YAY! There is also the fun Predator mode which is also addicting and fun. Overall, this game rocked and the multiplayer is equally as fun!
