It's probably quite fitting for a game that's all about man's descent into insanity that Far Cry 3 's probably the nuttiest thing you'll play all year. It's a hedonistic mix of guns, sun and madness - as well as a cavalcade of wildlife that takes this above and beyond your normal shooting...

Incredible; packed open world; Fantastic open-ended stealth gunplay; Animals

Story missions aren't the measure of the off-script game

played, completed and was wonderful.

There's plenty I haven't had space to talk about, like the drug experiences or the Indiana Jones temple moments, but if you have any questions just leave a comment below and I'll endeavour to answer – as this is a particular game where I'm sure you'll have plenty.

Far Cry 3 builds on its predecessors with a massive, engaging game world and the lure of unpredictability. Jason Brody begins life as a whimpering tourist afraid to fend for his life and develops into the deadly survivor he needs to become.

+ A fantastic open world; + Deadly creatures are friend and foe; + Choice is everything; + Great levelling up system

- Co-op is disappointing; - Fire grows to be annoying

Far Cry 3 is like the annoying uncle of videogames; the one you rarely see and who tries too hard to show how down with the kids he is. He talks about that tattoo he almost got, drops swearwords into the conversation for the sake of it and tells you stories about that one time he took 'shrooms back...

Update: All clear! Now if only Crysis 3 can get its series back to its open-world shooter roots, we might be onto something here. Are you a fan of this open-world design, or do you prefer your shooters well-scripted and linear? With lots of explosions. Yes, lots of explosions...

Massive world to explore; addictive hunting, gathering, and crafting; fantastic villain

Generic multiplayer; linear, scripted story levels; DX11 crash bug

So far a great game wonderful graphics on the crytek 3 engine. There is however a lot of buttons to remember on the gampad , this will take awhile to...

Good storyline ; great graphics

The very beginning kind of sucks until you get a weapon

A huge and excitingly rich open world. Prowl it like a hunter, plan sneaky attacks, and turn the animal kingdom into bags.

Brutal, dark, well-written, and deeply enjoyable. Far Cry 3 takes a lot of its predecessors ideas and makes them work.

I love this game!!!!!!! This is the best game I've played in a long time and a huge improvement on the last one,it looks fantastic,has a great story line and is full of surprises.I wasn't sure weather to get this or not but I'm so glad I did......MUST BUY!!!!
