Far Cry 3 Patch Hopes To Increase Replayability

Far Cry 3 Patch Hopes To Increase Replayability In the old days of video gaming, once it is complete, you move on from that particular challenge to a different one as the replayability factor was relatively low with its linear storyline and gameplay. Well, times have certainly changed, and in this day and age, there are many games out there that do feature different endings to increase the replayability value, and of course, who can forget the wonders of multiplayer goodness where when the human factor is thrown into the mix, it feels like you’re playing a brand new game every single time.

Far Cry 3 has issued a new patch with hopes to increase the level of replayability so that players will revisit Rook Island in large numbers once again. According to Ubisoft, they listened to fans carefully, taking note of their grouses, complaints and suggestions before coming up with today’s update, that will include tougher challenges and the wonders of rediscovering the world, apart from multiplayer improvements, too. This new patch will be available for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC platforms without any need to wait, which is always a good thing.

New Far Cry 3 trailer revealed

If you’ve read the reviews of Far Cry 3 or if you’ve played the previous games and are a fan of the franchise, chances are Far Cry 3 is a game you’re eager to get your hands on. Unfortunately for those of us living in North America, we will only be seeing the game come 4th of December, which is tomorrow so we guess that’s not a very long wait time. However if you’re still on the fence about the game and aren’t sure if you should be spending your hard earned money on it, the folks at Ubisoft have released a rather lengthy trailer of the game, or a tour if you’d rather. You get to see scenes from the game, you’ll be introduced to the various factions, characters, the weapons you’ll have access to, the skills and even the multiplayer aspects of it. Hopefully this trailer will prove interesting enough to get you on board the Fary Cry 3 bandwagon, either that or it will sate your appetite for the game which you should be able to get your hands on come 4th of December. Until then pull up a chair, grab some popcorn and enjoy the 10 minute trailer.

Assassin’s Creed 3 and Far Cry 3 missing from UK Steam store

Back in the day, going to the video game store was pretty much the only way you’d be able to get your hands on a video game. While video game stores still exist, thanks to faster internet speeds, gamers now have alternative means of purchasing their games, such as digitally through virtual store fronts such as Valve’s Steam. Now if you’re a gamer who has a ton of credit in Steam and are looking to use it to get Assassin’s Creed 3 or Far Cry 3, you might have noticed that despite previous Assassin’s Creed titles being made available via Steam, the third installment of game has yet to make an appearance at least as far as UK gamers are concerned.

According to the folks at PCGamesN, Ubisoft has confirmed to them that they are currently in talks with Valve at bringing both Assassin’s Creed 3 and Far Cry 3 onto the Steam platform for the UK market. No word on when exactly will the game be making its way onto the UK Steam store, but in the meantime Ubisoft has suggested that UK gamers looking to get their hands on either game to either go to the publisher’s Uplay store or hit a retail outlet.

AMD Never Settle bundle gives Radeon HD 7000 buyers free games they’d actually care to play

AMD Never Settle bundle gives Radeon HD 7000 buyers free games they'd actually care to play

Just about anyone who has bought more than one aftermarket graphics card knows that bundled games rarely matter. They’re usually year-old titles or neutered editions built only to showcase the GPU’s performance for a few hours. AMD thinks its Never Settle bundle might finally get us to notice. Buy any modern Radeon HD video card from the 7770 GHz Edition on up and you’ll get a download code for at least one new game you’d genuinely want to try, ranging from Far Cry 3 on basic cards to a full three-game deal that supplies Far Cry 3, Hitman: Absolution and Sleeping Dogs to high rollers buying the 7900 series. There’s likewise a discount for Medal of Honor: Warfighter and promises of bundles in 2013 for Bioshock Infinite and the reimagined Tomb Raider. As long as you’re not dead set on springing for a GeForce board in the next few months, one of the qualifying cards might be worth a look to jumpstart your game collection.
