Far Cry 3 gameplay trailer

Far Cry 3 gameplay trailer

Dr Earnhardt Far Cry 3Knives, guns, blood, flamethrowers, and hang gliding.  Or was that all just from the glowing mushroom I ate?  Either way I can’t wait for all of it to be in my life melting my face off.

Far Cry 3, at least from the trailers, looks like it’s going to be far, far cooler than its predecessor.

This is the “Dr. Earnhardt” gameplay trailer. From the press release:

Check out the action-packed shooter gameplay and immersive world of Far Cry 3 through the troubled eyes of Dr. Earnhardt, the island’s resident “pharmacist.”  Use an arsenal of weapons, explosives and vehicles to fight against the island’s ruthless and deranged inhabitants.  Explore a stunning and treacherous environment, filled with diverse terrain, exotic creatures and mind-bending botanicals.

Far Cry 3.  Far From Safe.  Far From Sane.

    UPSLynx Now THIS is the FarCry sequel we've been waiting for. I love the first game so much. I was one of the few that liked FC2, but I never finished it because it was lacking quite a bit. I hope they learned some lessons from it.

    Though I'm starting tho think "island paradise shooter" is becoming a genre.

    The trailer looks like they're going a bit CoD on this one. Hopefully that turns out fine, because I'm OK with the action stuff. I did cringe at the Gamestop exclusives at the end :/

    AlexDeGruven Looks great. I like the additional footage they added after E3 (a few of the scenes in this trailer were shown then).

    I've started taking an interest in console FPSes after the good time I had with Bulletstorm (though I still suck at them), so I'll definitely consider this one this time.

    I also agree with @UPSLynx on the "Island Paradise Shooter" thing. Even Bulletstorm had an element of that, since it takes place on a resort.

    I can see how it works, though. People go to resorts and such to relax, so turning them into a post-apocalyptic nightmare is a good way to put you on-edge.
