    In my opinion,the best Far Cry made. This game has it all,big open world full of secrets,loot and things to do. The story is great,gunplay is almost perfect,its just a fun game. My only complaint is the driving,its bad,they should've made it third person as its to hard to see where your going so your always out of control,bumping into everything,other than that I love this game.

    Incredible game this was back on the Xbox 360 and now thankfully it’s got the well deserved upgrade to PS4. But there really isn’t anything great, nothing has changed at all and being a classic or remastered version it’s to be expected. Still a great game and thankful I got it free with Far Cry 5. But I’d steer clear of until the sale comes.

I was expecting a checklist open world game which I have found stale in recent years and while that was exactly what I got, it's the execution that impressed and surprised me. The story is corny but enjoyable with zany characters like hurk and the excellent Vaas who may or may not know the definition of insanity. The main character of Jason is portrayed laughably at times but is far better than having a completely blank slate character. The open world and gameplay loop are the main attraction here however. There are lots of activities and collectibles sprinkled everywhere. The brilliance is that everything you do rewards you in some way. radio towers unlock portions of the map, guardposts act as fast travel points once you clear them and side quests/collectibles reward you with exp that you can spend on worthwhile upgrades in the skilltrees. Hunting the wildlife will also provide you with equipment upgrades like an extra holster or larger wallet and the animals won't hesitate to fight back so be careful. The gunplay while a bit finicky is solid enough to make you feel like a badass as you tear through enemies. Some of the camps have animals trapped that you can set loose some have watchtowers that you can commandeer, these scenarios along with the large arsenal of weapons creates a very fun sandbox to play with. The story missions are also varied and some stand out missions in the middle and the end elevate the campaign and keep you engaged throughout. In conclusion my ferrary through the rook islands was a great romp filled with crazy moment after crazy moment and I can't wait to give the rest of the series a go… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I did not play Far Cry 3 in 2021 as a remaster but as a new full experience since I missed it in 2012, so I can't tell how good it is solely as a remaster, but rather what this video game is in its entirety, looking both at the past and at the present.

    The game plot's presentation and opening keep the player nailed in a breathless initial sequence: right from the start, the plot sets the game perfectly for what will be a daring adventure. From there on, most of the plot keeps quality constant and is very well written in the dialogues, the characters are just as well written and of course, yes, Vaas Montenegro stands out among them. There are some memorable moments, such as burning cannabis plantations with a flamethrower to the tune of Damian Marley. It's complex to understand Far Cry 3 plot's nuances. The jungle in which Jason Brody is abruptly thrown does not replace the civilised world in his mind; it does not make him "rediscover himself". On the contrary, it is superimposed on a world that was already there before and which cannot go away and generates in him a trauma, a short circuit, a contradiction. Soon, for Jason, killing Vaas for revenge becomes more important than escaping Rook Islands, being manipulated by Citra; which leads me to wonder: who really "screwed up" Vaas' brain? Who really is "screwing up" Jason's brain? How right Vaas is in telling Jason "You are me and I am you"? Jason's traumatic hallucinations, at least for me, questioned whether the whole adventure was true or just a madness, a schizophrenic dream, until almost the end of the game.

    It will be up to the player (in an ending which shouldn't be "a choice") to decide if Jason has been able to grow, to learn something out of this brutal adventure or if "the jungle took him". As shocking as "the evil ending" can be, it simply does not leave anything else than the shock: it's just an end in itself. Nor Jason nor the player will get anything from it.

    Far Cry 3's gameplay has been, to some extent, revolutionary and impacted open world games even outside of FPSs. In Far Cry 3 there's shooting weapons and shooting works pretty well, there's a good variety of weapons of many types from short-medium to long range. There is also a wide range of land and sea vehicles and the driving system works just fine. It's the first Far Cry in which stealth plays an important role and the mechanic is, perhaps surprisingly, quite well done. It's also the first Far Cry in which there are three skill trees with different kind of skills with which to grow the player character, by obtaining XPs by killing enemies and completing quests. Both did set important precedents for later Far Cry games. Primary and side quests are carried out in an open world scenario. But, how do you make an open world shooter interesting? Sure, you can create fascinating environments, captivating side quests, but what else can you offer while the character simply walks around in any point of the map? Hunting, for example. Hunt a wild animal (there's wide range of them), sell meat and skin or feathers, or use them to upgrade an item, like a storage bag. Collect wild plant leaf extracts, use them to create antidotes, drugs, first aid treatment. All of this is within reach of the player, so as to potentially keep the it busy at all times. It also creates an economy in the game, a way to buy weapons and ammunition. If stuff is needed, search, hunt, sell and earn. An approach actually already elaborated by Red Dead Redemption, but in Far Cry 3 more extended and improved. Besides all this, sub-secondary activities, such as clearing enemy outposts and recovering information (collectables, among many others) or completing timed deliveries on ATVs or bounty hunting. In short, it is both quantity and quality in Far Cry 3 that make the difference in keeping the player engaged.

    There is a "but". The danger of boredom is always around the corner and, despite quantity and quality, even Far Cry 3 can be repetitive. Also, the game's damage from falling is way too high, half the times enough for a instant death, which can be annoying considering the steep terrains and high grounds which Rook Islands open world map naturally lead the player to walk.

    Far Cry 3 is nearly 10 years old but still a good-looking game. Dunia Engine has a nice rendering, especially in the environment visuals; Classic Edition improvements boost visuals, still being a mere remastered: 1080p resolution and little more. Lack of 60 frames per second is a bit disappointing, considering it's a old-gen game. The soundtrack, audio editing and voice acting are of great quality.

    Far Cry 3 has been an important video game of the last decade which still resonates to this day. For its series it has been a landmark watershed. The game has aged well and is so outreaching that it's recommended for everyone, to experience a video game adventure with intense plot and gameplay.    … Expand

    The Bads:
    Animation for Skinning animals need to be skipped or have option in menu.
    World feels dead, almost every hut in all the map is empty or taken by pirates. Very few NPCs that all look alike and they almost dont walk around map at all.
    Driving is very bad, FC4 improved a lot and FC5 made it perfect.
    Sniper zoom in and out is a but bugged on PS4.
    Destructibility is very minimal. You cannot chop down trees or bushes with machete.
    Caves needs to marked better on map. Some caves took me long time to find entrances.
    Press for cash collection? Yeah this game feels old, it should be just “walk over” to collect cash but ok.
    Some skills you would use very rarely or almost never, like zipline handgun firing.
    You should be able to hold heal for multi heal but it does not work.
    Most cars dont have any power to climb hills.
    Graphics: game looks dated but definitely is playable. 60FPS should have been enabled.
    Enemy AI is very strange. You can be in direct line of sight but crouch and enemy wont notice you 10 meters away.
    You can equp 2 syringes but use only 1 per time. Lame.
    Menu music is horrible, it needs to have option to turn off.
    Jumping/mantling has bad animation.
    You also get no achievement for collecting all relics :(
    Side qusts are really not good, they are marked “story quest” but they are almost not related to main story at all. Even all characters look same. There is very little variety.
    Not being able to pick up second gun without holsters is horrible game mechanic.
    Looting boxes is also boring, only good side is that you are exploring island.

    Tips:
    Dont liberate all outposts in the beginning of game. Its much more fun to have active enemies on map.
    For fast xp: get relics and letters (250 & 500 respectively). Headshots have 3x kill xp, go for them too.
    Don't bother picking up guns from enemies, best guns can be found in shops, unlock them and use them.

    The Goods:
    Weapon customisation is great. Syringes mechanic is also fun to use.
    Game is very fun, even in 2020, if you never played it I think you'll enjoy. Atmosphere and first "main" villain is fun too. Overall gunplay is good, characters are fun too. It was amazing game when it came out, especially with Multiplayer feature which i loved. PS4 remaster has no multiplayer sadly.
    If you want good story, buy this game at discount or get it free with Far Cry 5.
    No micro-transactions! I KNOW, RIGHT? Welcome to 2012. Some side-missions are crazy fun.

    Below is very quick rundown of all missions, basically the plot (spoilers, obviously).

    Spoiler for Story missions: you escape a camp, you do few map-missions, locate one of your friends, find mushrooms, find a ship, get info on next friend, blow up ammo/weapon cache, find second friend. Together they want to fix a boat to leave. You go see Citra, dream of a man and knife. Then you go to badtown. Tail spy. Go burn weed for him. Go find Hoyt. You find a guy who gives you transportation documents with coordinates to find Oliver. You do “snipe from away” mission, rescue Oliver. Come see Buck. Go find a boat, with compass and knife that Buck wants in return of Keith. Then cave. Then lake. You find a knife, save friend and kill buck. Then go to citra. Give her knife and help locals with anbush. Ambush fails and Vaas captures you and tries to drown, you go after him, he shoots you again. Then you go see Citra. Defeat drug-monster and go Kill Vaas. Agent Willis helps you escape island to Hoyt island, you find Sam, go become privateer and help Sam. You try to get liked by Hoyt. Help Sam against pirate rebels. Then you get a list of traitors, show to Hoyt. You find Riley then help Sam with oil tanks and satelite comms. Then you play poker. Hoyt kils Sam, you kill Hoyt
    (In most boring QTE possible). You find Riley and fly to your friends. then you have 2 choices: you either join citra or kill your friends . If you join citra, she has sex with you, then “kills” you. If you join friends, citra tries to stop you but your friend accidentally kils citra, then you leave island.    … Expand

    It's been 6 years since the original FC3 was released, but with that amount of time to think about what changes to make, and implement them to perfect an already amazing game I'm surprised that this feels, looks, and plays exactly like the original. I mean, it was nice platinuming this game in a very short amount of time but it doesn't feel like a remaster at all. It feels like a port

    Far Cry 3 has one of the best charismatic villains in gaming. The graphics are not the best of course, but do the job. The gunplay play is still fun and the open world is a fun place to mess around in. Full of pirates, crazy ass wildlife and exotic and deadly tribal mythos.

    The overtly fast pirate spawn rates can be a bit annoying. The animals are vicious numerous and can be in packs.    Far Cry 3 has one of the best charismatic villains in gaming.

    The overtly fast pirate spawn rates can be a bit annoying. The animals are vicious numerous and can be in packs. The game has it's level of choas factor. Fighting pirates only to be attacked by animals. Or hunting animals to be attacked by other animals or pirates or both.

    A soft green kid going up against hardened pirates, mercenaries and wild animals kind breaks the suspension of disbelief with the story elements. It is definitely a power fantasy sort of game. Random noob, becomes literally a badass Rambo type.

    Far from perfect due to the spawns and story issues, but this is a hell of a lot of fun. I forgot how much fun three actually was to play. Oh and better frame rate than the terrible PS3/360 for sure. Primal, Blood Dragon and Far Cry 3 are the peak of Far Cry games.    … Expand

    Far Cry 3 for its time was a great open world game. Subsequently, the gaming landscape became full of the typical things you see in these games so playing this again, you may find you remembered it better.

But the story is the best part, the story of Jason Brody is one that the games of today have failed to live up to.

He’s regarded as one of the best video game villains and for good reason too. Vaas is crazy, yet still has this charm to him and it’s this combination which makes him so likable.

    O melhor dos Far Cry. Aquele que estabeleceu o padrão que está sendo destruído agora pelo Far Cry 6.

    For me the best Far Cry to date, everything in general in the game is good technically it is not the most advanced but we are talking about a Remake but compared to more recent Far Cry without a doubt the best so far and the villain Vaas of the game is by far the best best of the series and one of my favorite villains

    The game is good. It’s a big step in the right direction from Far Cry 2. A lot more aggressive independent techniques have been created to allow a range of approaches to most objectives.

    Açıkçası oyun çok güzel. Önceki serilerine kıyasla daha iyi. Oyunun çıkmasından uzun süre geçse de oynatıyor. Hikayesini çok beğendim.

    Ya conocía este título desde hace mucho tiempo incluso jugué a títulos posteriores, pero nunca había probado está joyita de videojuego, me parece un juego muy divertido que no envejece nada mal y que la historia es una locura, el descenso a la locura sutil pero notable en el protagonista y las hipótesis que planteas en relación a los acontecimientos de la historia me llegan a valorar aYa conocía este título desde hace mucho tiempo incluso jugué a títulos posteriores, pero nunca había probado está joyita de videojuego, me parece un juego muy divertido que no envejece nada mal y que la historia es una locura, el descenso a la locura sutil pero notable en el protagonista y las hipótesis que planteas en relación a los acontecimientos de la historia me llegan a valorar a este juego con un 9.… Expand

    Vaas is the highlight of this game, being my favorite villain in the series. Gameplay is very fun and well done. Even with it being a Far Cry game, the story is very good and has some interesting points. Missions are the best and most action packed. Graphics are pretty good and a big improvement compared to the PS3 version, although nothing too crazy which makes sense with this being aVaas is the highlight of this game, being my favorite villain in the series.

    Again, the review will be a little more subjective than usual because the third Far Cry is my favorite part of the series. A few years ago when I played Far Cry 3 I really enjoyed it. Vaas is a brilliant villain, which unfortunately I can't say about Hoyt. Jason is an interesting main character and the other characters are great too.

A few years ago when I played Far Cry 3 I really enjoyed it. Vaas is a brilliant villain, which unfortunately I can't say about Hoyt. Jason is an interesting main character and the other characters are great too. The arsenal of weapons is nice, although I might appreciate a little more. The map is nicely designed and the same applies to discovering new parts of the map, as is usual with Ubisoft by climbing the towers. Climbing the towers is a walk in the park in the beginning, but gradually it becomes quite depressing and it depends on how broken the given tower is. The open world is amazing... You can do almost anything. Do you just want to kill Vaas' pirates? Not a problem. Do you just want to hunt wild game for fun? As you wish. Do you want to focus only on the story campaign? you can. The story here is for me the best of all Far Cry games, if not even of all Ubisoft titles. You can understand Jason's motivations for why he does all this and why he murders all those pirates. The ending of the game is great and the possibility to have a decision about how the whole story ends is also a pretty nice icing on the cake. So Michal, are you trying to tell me that the game is completely flawless and everyone should play it? Like everyone should play it, but there aren't many flawless games. I know this will sound a bit like a skill issue, but I found the game unnecessarily demanding in some parts. Yes, I played on the third difficulty, but that doesn't mean that I can spend an hour or more on one mission. The main villain, Hoyt, is just so MEH. He basically has no charisma except for the last 3 story quests. I still really enjoyed the game and I stand behind the fact that it is the best game in the series … Expand

    Far Cry 3 still offers damn good time, and the Classic Edition is a great way to revisit Ubisoft’s influential classic or dive into it with fresh eyes. The tried-and-tested formula has advanced in recent years, leaving some aspects of Far Cry 3 to feel aged and inconsiderate, which could be too high a hurdle for newcomers to overcome.

    Far Cry 3 Classic Edition is a compelling journey into the past of the Ubisoft series. The game is still solid and enjoyable, full of things to do while exploring the island, but the remaster could have been better.

    This is a very straightforward port of Far Cry 3, a game loved and loathed in equal measure. The Classic Edition is a great way for newcomers to experience one of the best games in the series, despite some clunky controls. Many people will have made up their mind about Jason's journey years ago, but on its own merit, this is a competent re-release of a fun, if a little dated, open world shooter.
