Just watched the walkthrough video they did a while back on Gamespot. This game looks promising! If they manage to take the good ideas from 2 and actually execute them well this time then Far Cry 3 could really be awesome.

Does anyone know if 3 has the same health system as 2? Will I be picking bullets out of my forearms with pliers?

I'm looking forward to this game but I can't trust any of the reviews coming out. Farcry 2 was sooooo good for the first 5-10 hours before it became obvious that the next 30 hours were going to be the exact same as the first few. If I were a critic and had to give Farcry 2 a rating after the first 5 hours it would have gotten a 10/10. The malaria side-story, the graphics, the sounds, the gunplay, the plot; all of them seemed excellent before the repetitive nature of the game became apparent.

To be honest, the repetitiveness of Far Cry 2 was fully apparent by about an hour or two in.

Eh, I just pre-ordered it off Shopto for £24.85.

The special editions were all sold out, I noted.

Yeah, they were sold last week too. I think a lot of PC players opted for that edition after the highly positive reviews from UK focused sites like Eurogamer appeared.

Been playing the coop with a friend this evening. It's nothing wonderful, but it's definitely not poo poo.
