    I would be satisfied with a first person camera. I could take pictures of the wildlife or long distant head shots with my bow.

    Yeah it's gettin' about time that they need to reveal the MP huh? Maybe at TGS (though that seems weird since Tokyo game show is in the one market that'll care about this game the least) I think for FC3 it was revealed at PAX right? Or maybe that was the reveal when we started seeing the open world gameplay, I dunno, I still have the sneaking suspicion that this game will get delayed, so who knows when the reveal will come but even I am curious about it now and I hardly care about the MP mode....

    Edit: Just found this vid in which Alex Hutchinson says (around the 3:00 mark) that the MP reveal should be coming about a month from gamescom (when the vid was shot) so it may be coming sometime in the latter half of September!

    With FC2 they revealed the Editor on stage at Pax Prime using a big screen in a large room full of people, they followed up with some videos of the editor - the actual Far Cry 2 Multiplayer was shown approx one month before release and had one maybe two interviews briefly showing a little footage.

    With FC3 it was a mess because they gave some info and hyped the Beta that never was then there was the delay - but the secret game mode that had us all excited wasn't revealed until close to launch and it was very disappointing.

    TGS is bad with 1st person shooters as a lot of them suffer motion sickness if an article I read a couple of years ago is correct.



    22nd Sept 2008 that video released and am sure it was the only one showing MP - Previously we had a couple of images and articles not really saying very much, so you could be right that we will get some info at the end of Sept (around that time)

    Reference the Topic on a photo mode - I would like something that was designed especially for taking images in the editor or MP that would be great.
