Far Cry 3 Trailer Gets Drunk, Murdered, Stranded

I likes makes me want to pull out FarCry 2 and start playing again.

I've been completely lost with the Far Cry series for a few years now. I have the original for PC, and it's great. Then Ubisoft tries to make various alternate versions and spinoffs, and for the most part they range from okay (like, a port to Xbox) or downright terrible (Vengeance, for Wii). Then Far Cry 2 comes out, and as far as I know, has absolutely no connection to the first game aside from a tropic setting and the name. And I have even less of a clue what's going on now, except a really bad island trip (okay, getting more like the first game sorta).

That said, if those are in-game graphics in that trailer, then I'm impressed. But I kinda have a hunch it isn't.

I was actually quite disappointed with the second one. I liked the idea of having an open world, basically free to do whatever missions you wanted, but I also like a developing story line. Granted, I didn't play the second one long enough to even see where it was going but that's because I didn't like the way it played. I liked FarCry's linear story line with the missions setup for you to do them multiple ways. The game sucked me in and kept me playing all the way through. FarCry 2 failed to do that. I hope FarCry 3 is more like the first one.

And you're right, FarCry 2 didn't seem to have anything to do with the first one.

Hell Yes to Islands. Islands should mean:

1. Vertical game play.
2. Varied terrains
3. Water
4. You can go around the entire thing in a circle
5. YOU CAN GO AROUND THE ENTIRE THING IN A CIRCLE
6. Free-range explorat-AROUND THE ENTIRE THING IN A CIRCLE

Don't shatter my hopes and dreams, Ubisoft.

YOU CAN GO AROUND THE ENTIRE THING IN A CIRCLE

Fuck, they should just put that in their promos.

Was that Gordon Freeman rallying a bunch of people about 2 minutes in?

pre-rendered trailers should be illegal...
