The horrifying events that follow however, which are kickstarted by their decision to skydive down to a mysterious tropical island, will change your perception of them pretty quickly. It takes around 10 seconds to realize that these individuals can best be described as annoying, spoiled, entitled brats. To let loose before joining the real world, Jason (you) booked a booze and party-filled vacation to the fictional Rook Islands in Southeast Asia with his two brothers, his girlfriend and some buddies. What makes Far Cry 3 stand out is that Ubisoft found a way to balance these often distinct elements nearly perfectly within a single game.įirst and foremost, Far Cry 3 is a story-driven game which is told from the perspective of Jason Brody, the game’s protagonist. Like its predecessor, Far Cry 3 borrows elements from many other genres including open world adventure games, RPGs and hardcore first person shooters. With its story-driven single player experience, interesting characters, lush and breathtaking visuals, open world gameplay, RPG elements, enjoyable co-op and competitive multiplayer and solid controls, it’s difficult to find many reasons to not put Far Cry 3 alongside the very best of 2012.įar Cry 3 has more in common with Borderlands 2 than it does with Black Ops 2 or Halo 4, so the comparison isn’t exactly always apples to apples, but it still applies. Somewhat surprisingly, even in the face of such steep competition on both fronts, Ubisoft may have snuck in and jumped to the top of both lists with the release of Far Cry 3 for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. In terms of open world games, Assassin’s Creed III, Borderlands 2 (again) and Sleeping Dogs topped the charts in one way or another as well. With Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, Halo 4, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, Borderlands 2 and others all being released this year, there is certainly no shortage of quality games to fill out the FPS category.
