About this Article

The picturesque setting of "Far Cry 3" turns out to be far from hospitable to tourist Jason Brody, who can barely stand the sight of blood when he finds himself caged up in a village ruled by a drug lord. Jason's transition into a seasoned survivor anchors "Far Cry 3," an outstanding open-world first-person shooter that intersperses character arc, plot and suspense throughout a variety of action-packed firefights, stealth sequences and side missions.
