Far Cry 3 is an open world first-person shooter set on an island unlike any other. A place where heavily armed warlords traffic in slaves. Where outsiders are hunted for ransom. And as you embark on a desperate quest to rescue your friends, you realize that the only way to escape this darkness — is to embrace it.

This was the first Farcry I have played and it is easily my new favorite game. I am a huge Assassin's Creed and Call of Duty fan, and this game essentially combines these two styles to create an amazing hybrid. Where to begin with this game? The graphics and storyline are fantastic, the map is enormous, there are lots of weapons, there are several extra side missions to do, hunting animals is awesome, and the music is great. The only thing I would change about this game is the ending, but that is it, everything else completely met my expectations. Needless to say, if you are a fan of sandbox/first-person shooter/adventure games, you will absolutely love this. I also thought it was interesting that this game has a resemblance to Heart of Darkness. The themes of this game are much deeper than they may appear and the storyline, though relatively short, is emotional and the characters are all well done each with different personalities. Get this game.
The American Colonies, 1775. It's a time of civil unrest and political upheaval in the Americas. As a Native American assassin fights to protect his land and his people, he will ignite the flames of a young nation's revolution. Assassin's Creed III takes you back to the American Revolutionary War, but not the one you've read about in history books.

I was super excited for this game since I played all the other AC games. For the most part it exceeds my expectations, but there are a few things that really dissapointed me. 1. No hidden locations, which is real sad because this was where you saw the maker's creativity and it was like a small puzzle, and usually at the end you got the best armor in the game, which by the way there is no armor in this game, just outfits. 2. So many tiny glitches 3. The ending is actually really inconclusive and seems to set up a cliff hanger although there is no way there can be another one, it appears 4. After finishing the game, people still refer to the soldiers as redcoats and lobsterbacks even though they are colonial and you can start riots which is weird. 5. The fighting style is much different, which isnt a big deal, but it was good in the previous games and did not require fixing. 6. The last thing is that sometimes Conor doesnt put his hood up. It just doesnt look like assassins creed with no hood up, come on ubisoft 7. one more thing is that it really does start slow. The first 5 sequences are pretty boring There are several improvements, however 1. The frontier is amazing, and the hunting is pretty cool 2. You can access your assassins guild from anywhere anytime 3. Tons of side missions, forts to conquer, assassin contracts, etc. 4. The history side is pretty accurate i suppose
