I wrote briefly in a previous post that I am currently working on the movie adaptation of the popular First Person Shooter (FPS) video game, FarCry. It seems that not many people knew that the movie was being filmed, especially here in Vancouver. I play a soldier so I get to run around and shoot guns all day

More information on the cast and film crew can be found on the IMDB website. FarCry, due for a 2008 release, it being directed by Uwe Bolle, who also directed the recently Vancouver filmed “Postal”, “Bloodrayne 2″ and “In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale”. Seems like the German director is making a pretty good living working in Vancouver.

I could never play FPS games for too long as I get motion sickness pretty quickly. Although the last few games I played on my Xbox 360 I’ve been alright with, could also be my 50 inch widescreen TV that helps

I am lucky enough to get paired up with the super-awesome G36 assault rifle by H&K. The above photo shows it outfitted with a silencer. The photo below shows the basic variants of this effective assault rifle. Not only does it look menacing, but it is almost entirely composed of a very strong plastic polymer that makes it very light and effective in almost all climates but extreme cold. The buttstock is also retractable (it actually folds) to make it a sub-compact. Smooth firing and very easy to clear in the rare case it jams. The G36 is also made to be ambidextrous just for you southpaw soldiers out there
