I didn't think the first Fary Cry was worth playing

As for EA games, with their sports games, it looks like they've been using the same game engine for about 4 years now.

Very kool. I cant wait to see their next project. Im not into the whole "lets make one great game and then a bunch of crappy sequels" thing anyway.

Medal of Honor Pacific Assault should look similar to FarCry. I can't wait for the demo. It's supposed to be out on the 30th.

I don't want another Far Cry. Far Cry is worth playing for graphics but in terms of story and certain aspects of gameplay , I think better games could be made with Cry Engine

Agreed...the story was a little dry, but the graphics were amazing, so I hope a lot more games will use the Cry Engine. I am anxious to see MOH: PA too...and Doom 3, from graphics stand points....

**edit

Funny though that at the bottom of the Crytek website it says "Partners"

and UbiSoft is listed first, and no sign of EA...I guess they just haven't updated the site.
