    Best game of the series. With its story and gameplay, it had a special place when it was released. But I can't say the same for the games that came after the third game.

    Incorrect definition of insanity/10. For real though, there's a reason this game's formula has been copied by Ubisoft ever since. This was probably before the one Ubisoft higher up got all rapey and still kept his job to boot.

    O jogo é realmente muito bem feito, e o primeiro contato que tive com a franquia, é uma pena que muitos personagens ao longo de um enredo promissor não tenham sido bem aproveitados e aprofundados adequadamente, é um grande jogo com suas falhas, mas ainda sim um jogo que recomendaria facilmente.

    O jogo é ótimo, uma experiência que me agradou muito na época em que tive a oportunidade de finalizar, o melhor da saga sem sombra de dúvidas, apesar de ter envelhecido mal em questão gráfica, um remaster de qualidade seria bom, já que a versão "classic edition" não agradou muito boa parte dos jogadores. Nota: o melhor vilão dos games está nesse jogo

    Not perfect, but one of the best games ever made. Gameplay and story work together in an unmatched way, even if the story and pacing isn´t flawless. No wonder so many games are copying this, and not being as great as FC3. It´s great, but impossible to replicate.

    Review só pra lembrar a nota que dei pro jogo:
    O jogo é muito bom até o momento da morte do Vaas, a narrativa do Jason continua boa mas a repetição fica mais aparente ainda e o vilão (que me esqueci o nome) é um "downgrade" incrível quando comparado ao Vaas.

    Great game, tons of fun. Obviously a late review for a game that's about 10 years old, but this was made back in Ubisoft's heyday, before they became the wokeness / ESG / left-wing lunatic trash pushing company that they are today. :)

    They had innovated a bit on this game and upgraded the graphics significantly along with the takedown mechanics. Game is an absolute blast, highly recommended.

    This Far Cry was a blast, never got tired of it, restarted at least 5 times. The plot was pretty awesome with the greatest character in the franchise, Vaas. Even the soundtracks was good, starting with MIA - Paper Plane, then destroying the weed farm with Damian Marley ft Skrillex - Make it Bun Dem in the background. Pure gold.

    One of Ubisoft’s greatest games and undoubtedly at the top. In my opinion Far Cry 3 is the best open world action-adventure first-person shooter game. It also features role-playing game elements and stealth. Realistic graphics, Far Cry 3 had the best graphics at that time. Remarkable game play and exciting story.

    An excellent game with very good graphics and a charismatic main boss. A very good open world with many side quests.

    I am actually on my second play through of this game. This was the game that got me started on the Far Cry franchise. The games really draw you in. I highly recommend this game, Far Cry 4, and Far Cry Primal. Do not underestimate Primal either. It is very good. I was reluctant about it because it did not have modern weapons, but it turned out to be extremely good. But, for me, FarI am actually on my second play through of this game.

They only bad thing about this game is Brody is a bit whiny at times and his girlfriend is annoyingly clueless. Otherwise, the game hits on all cylinders.… Expand

    Melhor Far Cry que joguei, sem dúvidas. Vaz é um vilão perfeito. O jogo tem uma dinâmica ótima e muito marcante. Sistema de upgrade é justo e muito bom. O mundo aberto também é sensacional. O jogo te obriga a caçar para poder upar habilidades quase que fundamentais para progedir e isso é muito bom.

    Ran ok on the 360, but ran really quite poorly on the PS4. PC is the definate way to play this at the best frames and draw distance. The Vaas character makes this game interesting early on and is pretty much wasted late game sadly, Fun sort of world to mess around and have shooty, bang, bang fun in. The wildlife tend to gank the player every five seconds or so though (argh). Peak Far CryRan ok on the 360, but ran really quite poorly on the PS4.

Офигенный геймплей, шикарный сюжет, саундтрек прям вообще идеальный.Прошёл игру за 8,5 часов. Шедевральная игра, намного лучше 4 части. Концовка меня прям вообще задела (я встал на сторону друзей).

    Far Cry 3 is one of the best games of 2012. I have to recommend Far Cry 3.
    The story is amazing - from the scratch you feel attached to the main character.
    But....if you like great graphics and sound: take FC 5.

    Ubisoftun bokunu çıkarmadan önceki ilk örneği.Eğlenceli oyun outpost ele geçirmek sarıyo aslında oyunun ana mekanikleri mantığı da gayet iyi.Diğer şeylere gelecek olacaksak yan görevler çok kalitesiz,radyo kulesi açma gibi saçma zorunlu olmayan zorunlu etkinlikler de var.Hikayesi de fena değil klişe ama idare ediyor.

    Far Cry 3 is a classic shooter at its core, but there are various RPG mechanics, skills and upgrades under the hood. It’s a fabulous playing ground and one can but marvel at the wondrous ways the various elements interact with each other. [January 2013]
