Far Cry 3 is a classic shooter at its core, but there are various RPG mechanics, skills and upgrades under the hood. It’s a fabulous playing ground and one can but marvel at the wondrous ways the various elements interact with each other. [January 2013]

Exhilarating, colorful, mindless – that's Far Cry 3 in three words.

Tighter and more accessible than Far Cry 2, the third outing is a master class in open world shooting. [Feb 2013, p.59]

I always hated Ubisoft but this game makes my hate even **** enemies are to overpowered on the EASIEST difficulty and it’s almost impossible to drive a car.

First time I've ever played a Far Cry game. I haven't enjoyed or been this hooked to a game ever. Mechanics are great. It's a bit annoying that you use all your stealth xp **** sees you right at the end of taking an outpost, and the story has a couple weird things, but the ending is cinema. I loved it, would highly recommend

A new standard for the genre. With a huge world full of surprises you could define it as the Skyrim of action games.

It offers a very good story and vast freedom of action and lets you dispose of enemies in various, often sophisticated ways. But there's more – tropical islands with their intriguing mysteries, superb acting, crafting, additional challenges and broad possibilities of character development. This game is everything Far Cry 2 was supposed to be. [CD-Action 1/2013, p.38]

My first Far Cry game, and it completely hooked me. The story was surprisingly engaging, and the gameplay felt fresh since I hadn’t played anything like it before. I loved the freedom in how you approach everything stealth or chaos, both work and both are ****’s one of those games that makes you want to replay it just to experience it again.

Far Cry 3 is one of the most interesting games of the year. The single-player mode is a great mix of a big sandbox and an atmospheric story with interesting characters. There are some mistakes here and there, but all in all everyone should be satisfied - sandbox lovers and fans of good storylines alike. What's more, the multiplayer isn't something added just because it needs to be - it's a great, big, rightful mode focused on cooperation (an additional co-op mini-campaign that borrows character progress from the standard multiplayer is a welcome bonus). Far Cry 3 is a package full of pleasant surprises. An insanely good game.

Far Cry 3 is an exceptional FPS with fun mechanics and excellent characterization. Unfortunately it wastes a fair number of opportunities offered by its huge open-world background. Plus, the secondary activities are not as fun as they could have been, and the island is too extensive to be interesting in the long run. Anyway, this game has surprised us.

Taking the best elements that made the two previous titles so successful, correcting some of their mistakes too, Far Cry 3 is clearly the blockbuster we were waiting for. Visually and artistically, the open-world is simply amazing. The different missions the main campaign consists of are all interesting as well, and the co-op aspects that are well-introduced. The multiplayer mode will entertain players for hours thanks to ingenious gameplay ideas.

If you prefer to be your own boss you should definitely visit this extraordinary island for some fun. Far Cry 3 is an amazing method for relaxation. [Christmas 2012]

The action is explosive, the direction of the story sequences is intense at times, but still I can't really feel at home on these islands. Far Cry 3 is the ultimate open sandbox: The player can do what he wants, where he wants it, when he wants it. But the credibility of the world suffers – and with it my motivation.

**Review of Far Cry 3 (9.5/10)** Far Cry 3 is a standout open-world shooter that blends freedom, chaos, and storytelling perfectly. The tropical island is vibrant and dangerous, filled with activities and surprises. Combat is fluid, with satisfying gunplay and stealth options. Vaas Montenegro steals the show with a chilling, unforgettable performance. While some side content can feel repetitive, the overall experience is thrilling, immersive, and highly addictive.

Far cry 3 is a very good open world game with a great story. Although graphics are a bit outdated now it still feels great to play. In my playthrough i had some issues with crashes, ultimately leaving me to play the game on a different computer completely. This would be a real pain if i only had one computer. Be aware of this issue before purchasing since it for me started happening hours into the game whereas a refund would be unavailable. If your lucky enough to have a flawless playthrough you definitely wont regret it.

Kötü karakteri dışında hiçbir konuda abartıldığı kadar iyi değil. Bu oyundan zevk alabilmeyi çok istedim. Tekrardan oynayacağım.

Ну это чёто такое необъяснимое, вроде игра в моментах 8/10 в из-за экшоновости, музыки, системы ТС и оружия, в моментах хочеться её удалить и забыть как страшний сон, доп квесты я ваще молчу, смерти ГЗ происходят где то за кадром(в трипе), на своё время игра может и была довольно неплохой но сейчас выше 4 ставить просто нереально.
SummaryIn Far Cry 3, players assume the role of Jason Brody, a figure alone at the edge of the world, stranded on a mysterious tropical island. In this savage paradise where anarchy and violence are the only sure thing, players dictate how the story unfolds, from the battles they elect to fight to the allies or enemies they make along the way. ...
