Awesome and most of all, a fun game. Haven't played it that much so I don't know if it gets repetitive, but still. I wouldn't mind having more guns to pick from too. Love the story and the main antagonist, crazy fucker. Good voice acting.

Imho could get GOTY.

Nah that's the sad part. It won't get GOTY as it came out too late for GOTY 2012 and all game awards 2012 mostly.

And next year for 2013? Fat chance. With GTA V, newest COD and BATTLEFIELD 4.

Lol great game but shame it was released that late so it wouldn't get any award recognition.

You unlock a new set of guns when you get a mission to go to the second island.  I doubt they unlock without the mission but you could always try just boating down there.

I have to admit that I had my doubts about this game. Shown footage wasn't all that great really but I found a good bargain yesterday and so I got it.

I admit, it's fun until now and especially the stealth gameplay works really well (huge Splinter Cell fan here - well, the first 3 were good, after that...) and I like the cover system. Only thing I don't like that much about it, it doesn't seem to work on trees but guess that's a minor thing.
And it runs surprisingly smooth for me. My rig isn't that good, though my gfx card is decent, I can run it with mostly maxed out settings (high and even ultra, still have to tinker around a little ;) ).

Overall it seems to be pretty good  8-) Oh, and I love the bow although I can't craft special arrows yet, I think. Wonder when I will be able to...
When west germany annexed east germany, nobody moved a finger too.

I watched a dev-video, some producer and the lead designer, playing a mission...

Jesus, fuck, that was sooo completely boring and lame. Looks nice, maybe plays nice but the mission design? Hell no, not gonna buy a game which contains of "go there, grab the shotgun, hunt the bears" and the next one is "go there and kill them all". Considering that they showed the game and were all proud... BOOOORING!

Not gonna buy it.

YEAH who was it who QQ'd like all other did lol. Same with Black Ops 2. You can't judge a book by its cover  :P

I QQ'ed about console catering and that still stands. The UI controls are abysmal.

Played the game on and off for long enough to know that it just doesn't hold my attention, I got bored pretty quickly each time and had to quit out and play something else, glad I never wasted my money on it tbh and I uninstalled it already. Not saying it's a BAD game, just nothing about it makes me want to keep playing it.

Frankly it feels to me atleast, that Far Cry 3s devs arent retarded like most devs. I mean from the collectibles and challenges point. In FC 3 doing them acctually gives you some reward. This may be the only game in history were I acctually tried to complete 100% everything. I never get who the fuck gives any shit about collectibles in other games that only give you score that isnt really worth anything, like in assassins creed the "Derplar flags" collecting or stupidass completely pointless "howfastcanyoucomehere?" tipe of challenges like in Prototype. Feels like pointless bullshit that only pointless players give shit about, but not in FC3.

Well what matters is having fun. A virtual reward is fun I admit but not mandatory if the gameplay itself is rewarding.
