Far Cry 3 : Blood Dragon

[flyinghaggis]

Just pre-ordered this. Might be terrible but it looks like the most epic game ever

 

"Remember the eighties? It's okay, you don't have to, Ubisoft has remembered them for you. Originally dismissed as an April Fools Day prank, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is real, and it's hitting PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 as a stand-alone digital release on 1 May.

 

The set-up has nothing to do with Jason Brody or pirates. Imagined as an eighties sci-fi movie, the story takes place in the distant future – 2007 – where a nuclear war has all but destroyed the planet. Now Sergeant Rex Colt: Mark IV Cyber Commando (voiced by Terminator and Aliens actor Michael Biehn), must take his cyber army and raid an island where a new bioweapon holds the potential for peace. So, yes, it's on an island, but this place looks nothing like the sun-drenched tropical paradise of Far Cry 3."

This is officially The Greatest Thing Ever.

 

Laser Sword fight in front of an atomic mushroom cloud. The eighties weren't this good the first time round.

I find FC3: Blood Dragon better than the original Far Cry 3 especially the item hunting. In Far Cry 3 you hae the option to collect relics for no particular reasons while in Blood Dragon, collectibles are meant for weapon upgrades.

 

Finished the game in 10 hours, probably shorter if you'll focus on the story and for a walkthrough, here's a good one: Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon [Guide]
