Far Cry 3 was racist? When?

It made use of the "magical negro" and "noble savage" tropes pretty heavily.

I see. It was just geography, to me. Like, in a country (or an island) mainly inhabited by black people.
The bad guy was white though, right?

Looks like a Far Cry 3 expansion pack, nothing really new has been added which is disspointing.

Looks pretty good and as long as its 1080p on PS4 (which it should be) I shall be picking this up at some point this year. Looks pretty good from what I have seen so far and seems to run well.

You'll buy it only if its 1080p. What if the greatest game created yet doesn't quite run at 1080p? You just wouldn't buy it?

Fabian Delph is a banana split.

Those specifications look shockingly reasonable for an Ubisoft PC release.

I can't see much reason to buy this over just playing far Cry 3 again. It looks really really similar.

(Even though I'm buying GTA5 again :lol: )

Funny thing is i will be getting gta5 ahead of this. Haven't completed far cry 3 and think this one looks much better on the hardware, well looking at the videos anyway. Will be one to pick up once i have completed a few ps4 and wii u titles.

I can't see myself picking it up. Just looks like the same game on a different map.

Didn't think much of Far Cry 3 but that was mostly due to it running like absolute gooseberry fool on consoles to the point where I had to stop playing. Everything about this looks so much better than the last one though, might ask for it for Christmas or trade in some stuff.

Yup. The same game on a different map with elements and gameplay styles which weren't in FC 3. It's a wonder they bothered to release it.

You mean riding on elephants? :lol:

I take it this doesn't run at 60 on PS4?

Of course not, it's Ubisoft.

Elephants, gyrocopters, campaign co-op.

Stable 30fps (I assume it's stable) isn't as good as 60, but it's still better than what we got with FC3 on consoles.

Of course not, it's Ubisoft.

:(

I wish companies would understand that a lot of people prefer frame rate to some stupid particle effect nobody is going to notice.

Why not give people the option? Would that be so hard?
