Far Cry 3 has already impressed the international gaming media, and it’s our turn this week to get a taste of paradise, along with a little chaos.
Far Cry 3 throws players back into the sun-kissed tropical setting the series is known for, and playing as a survivor known as Jason, the limits of humanity and psychological strength will be pushed.
Running on Ubisoft Montreal’s impressive Dunia 2 engine, the game is set to feature a massive sandbox environment, allowing players to take advantage of their large open-world in order to approach situations in a number of ways – not to mention looking absolutely gorgeous.
Given the great response the game has got, whether or not to buy Far Cry 3 has been answered, but now where do you look for Ubisoft’s new pirate shooter?
