Far Cry 3

Looks incredibly awesome. As I really hated Assassin's Creed 3, hopefully this will be the sandbox game that I really enjoy this year.

 

I think a lot of the advertising from Ubisoft was dedicated to another AAA title that was just released, so it's a shame that not many people know about this!

Well the game has gone gold according to ubitim on facebook so hopefully no more delays on the horizon.

I was in EB Games last week and there was a Far Cry 3 poster stating, "Pre-order for a September 7 release!" and I got all sad sad.gif

Oh nah, it's still a November 29 release here. I just mean that back in June it was originally planned to be released in September. Been waiting for the game since it was shown off at E3 2011 (where the game looked extremely polished)! sad.gif

That's what everyone thought about Far Cry 2. It didn't turn out quite well. I suggest you lower your hopes a bit.

FAR CRY 3 IS f*ckING AWESOME. I played Far Cry 1 in like 2005 or something I WISH THE TRIGENTS ARE BACK

This game looks like what I expected from Far Cry 1 way back. Pre ordered it two weeks ago after seeing a "open world" walkthrough where they explained how the game actually worked and how open it was...

 

The moment I saw the freedom, little economy in the game, bandit hideouts, huntingmissions and whatnot I was sold.

Only another two weeks until the release in Australia. I haven't pre-ordered yet, but I probably will soon! Game looks awesome.

 

I NEED MY SANDBOX FIX DAMNIT.

I can't wait to get my hands on this.

When I get home over Christmas this is probably going to be the game that takes up all my time, it's the only game I've really been dying to get my hands on, especially after hearing how Hitman Absolution and AC3 have failed to meet expectations.

 

I thought Far Cry 2 Was excellent, its main criticisms were valid but it was a solid and enjoyable game. I only have one concern regarding FC3 and that's that the world looks a little bit too lush. Maybe I'm just one of these hyper-realism gamers but I loved how grotty and dirty FC2's Africa was, it really portrayed the desperate atmosphere of the wartorn nation. FC3 doesn't seem that way, it seems too saturated and idealistic. Even though it is beautiful (and it really is, I'll be getting this on PC, I can't wait to see what my oc'd GTX670 can do with it) It doesn't seem like it'll have the same atmosphere and theme FC2 did. Does anyone else feel this way?

It's interesting that you say that. When I showed the game to one my mates his overall reaction was "looks a little too vibrant for me! [laughs]". I like the general look of it though because it has that stark contrast between the beautiful island and the war-torn violence, but I can definitely see what you're saying.

 

Here's a new trailer that shows off some of the island some more:

Yeah I agree. Even if the landscape is breath taking, the brutality of the location could be more obvious in the details. The screenshots of the pirates patrolling around a dilapidated fish market with shadows of bodies hanging from noose's comes to mind. Admittedly I never played the first Far Cry so the tropical setting is new to me. I played Crisis which is in a similar locale but overall that's the only similarity really.

I wish i could find a gameplay movie of the console version, preferably the 360 version. The PC version looks amazing, but i fear alittle for the console version, but it IS the version i will be getting.

Just picked this up from the Far Cry 3 Forums:

Fullsize Version

 

Seems much more open and also seems to be bigger but apparently it could be equal size or smaller than FC2.

Still, the locations seem interesting colgate.gif

Does Ubisoft always have a later North American release date for their games?

 

If so, then it seems like Ubisoft likes to do the opposite of what every other publisher does (not that there's really anything wrong with that).

10/10 from Eurogamer, as if I wasn't excited enough already.

Indeed.

I really, really hate first person shooters, but i liked Far Cry, 2 was kinda boring but it wasn't that bad, 3 looks f*cking amazing, can't wait.
