Far Cry Cheat Codes

Ubisoft’s first person shooter Far Cry can bring tears to your eyes. Even with hordes of shooters released every year, Far Cry manages to stay on top. It plays like a perfect marriage of stealth and action — with some the best graphics ever seen in any game, on any platform. Still, there’s another reason Far Cry will have you reaching for your hankie. The AI has a tendency of reducing even hardcore shooter fans into weeping babies, so don’t fret over reloading the same checkpoint 12 times if needed –we’ve all done it.Well, wipe those puffy eyes. We at IGN have written a thorough guide to Far Cry because nobody really wants to reload a game 12 times. Whether you need tips handling a vehicle, help getting to that next checkpoint, or simply want to finish the mission before your head explodes from frustration, we have you covered.

Get the guide here.

Manual Save Cheat

It’s easy to save anywhere in the game. Just open the console (the ~ or TILDE key) and type \save_game. If you can bind the command to an unused key, you will be able to quicksave any time with a press of the button. You may otherwise just type in the command normally each time you want to save.

Just add -DEVMODE to the end of the executable command line if the save command is not working.
