far cry 3 header

A video for Far Cry 3 has popped up on YouTube, and it shows around 6 minutes of gameplay on Xbox 360. In it, you’ll see a fella get stabbed from behind with his own knife; some running and gunning; the tossing of grenades; explosions; and some nice, drug-induced hallucinations. Watch it below. Game’s out in September on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. Thanks, RPS.

Far Cry 3 screenshots show explosions, crazy locals

far cry 3

Ubisoft has released a batch of screenshots for Far Cry 3 to go along with game’s first trailer, which was released yesterday. The game takes place on an island where some crazy hoodlums cause havoc for unwitting tourists James Brody, his lady love, and a friend. James’ girlfriend gets kidnapped, and as he searches for her, he starts suffering from mental breakdown and had hallucinations based on an “unreliable perspective.” Other occupants of the island are suffering from the same mental issues. It all sounds very interesting, and you will be able to try it out for yourself on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 when the game releases in September. You should also check out this piece regarding the game’s motion capture over on the EU PS Blog to get more insight into the game’s creation.

Ubi on Far Cry 3: PC has “more grunt,” but console differences “might not be as much” as expected

farcry3logo

The Far Cry franchise was born on PC, wrapped in swaddling Hawaiian shirts and making rigs scream like babies. So, will Far Cry 3 follow in its footsteps? Well, kind of. But consoles are hardly getting the short end of the stick. Or perfectly placed tree branch clothesline trap, as it were.
