I played Far Cry 3 a lot and enjoyed it, but it uses similar game mechanics to other Ubisoft games like Assassin's Creed and Watchdogs. They all have the same "find a viewpoint, climb a radio tower, hack a CTOS station" to unlock the missions in that area. They're fun games but it gets a bit repetitive when half of the games you play work the same way.

Just started FC4 which seems similar to 3 in all honesty, but this time (thus far anyway) the radio towers are made of wood as opposed to creaking iron structures as in FC3...same principle, get to the top, destroy tannoy message, green light appears on top of said radio tower...no real change.
There's a nice little touch in a mono-copter which you can use to travel around, but thus far the whole thing seems very FC3-ish but still good fun with sprawling maps.
Watch out for rhinos which seem to attack all & everyone, but despite this, I'm loathe to kill them really.
Saw a trailer which suggests there are 'friendly' elephants but not come across one of those yet.
I would concur though with DaveB...Halflife series was, and probably will remain, my all time favourite...quite why they stopped releasing more stuff is beyond comprehension. I think the world has given up on any further installments.

First one was awsome. Way ahead of it's time.
I thought that Farcry 3 had potential to be amazing, but it was too easy and pretty repetitive - just pick off the baddies in the enemy camps one at a time, blast the rest, rinse & repeat.
A harder coop version would be good - which is what I'd hoped the multiplayer would be, but it turned out that you can't go 'off road' in multiplayer.

What a whole heap of fun it was, yep the wife was annoyed at my addiction.
Also managed to boost £16 of Tesco points to £32 and got FC4 for an additional £8.
Anyone else played FC3 or 4?
CoD / BF etc don't really appeal.
