Oh my god. Get over the ending, it was an excellent game except for that ending and I'd be willing to bet most "professional" reviewers take a clinical view of these games and don't worry so much about continuity.
As for Far Cry 2, the game looks great on the surface and from a review standpoint I can see where it could score highly but upon closer inspection by gamers who invested time into it, frick it was bad. Guns bursting apart in your hands after a certain amount use (lol), infinite respawning enemies at checkpoints, useless fast travel over a gigantic map, and my personal favorite the SUPER AGGRESSIVE ENEMIES. The game saddled you with a huge game world but it made every single enemy in the game hunt you down on sight, pass a Ford Pinto in the fricking desert? HE STOPS AND GETS OUT TO SHOOT YOU.

Far Cry 2 was one of the worst games I've ever bought. It left such a bad taste in my mouth that I will more than likely never pick this one up. How fricking weak of a mission structure is it that every damn mission you do is top secret and results in every faction trying to kill you, even when you're helping them out? Not to mention the endless driving and the annoying as frick checkpoints.

Sorry, the ending is part of the game and should be reviewed as such. FPS's shouldn't get the marks that they do either. Homefront and Bulletstorm come to mind there.
