It's worth it. I got it day-one but only just got around to starting it. I can't seem to get any time on it during the week after work though. Weekends are taken up with 360 games at my friend's place, but I just have to finish it this year! I must!
Yea and spot Sharlto Copley as Agent Kruger. I didn't even reckonize him in this villain's role that is one of best I've seen in a while. He is amazing! He was the lead in District 9 and he played a great Howling Mad Murdock in the A-Team movie (2010). All totally different roles done to perfection!
Otaku's go to new levels of nerdiness.
Not yet.
Speaking of ring worlds. Did you notice that Elysium, in the movie of the same name, is a ring world? Also, I thought the story shared some simularities to the John 117 story in Halo. Replace Max Da Costa (Matt Damon) with John 117 and Kruger with a Brute or Elite and it all starts looking like a variation on a theme. It must still be the back of Neil Blomkamp's mind since the Halo movie fell through and he did District 9 and Elysium instead.
I don't know why, but I love sailing ships in games. I can't get enough of them. In fact, there are very few games that I can think of with such things: Sid Meier's Pirates, Wind Waker, AC3 and 4, Suikoden IV, were ships playable in Risen 1 and 2?... what else? A blog idea is forming in my mind about this.
I so want to play Far Cry 3.
It's a must get for me. I hope it's not too rare when I finally go to pick up a copy.
When I get to it, I'm going to look up a guide and follow it.
I remember playing the demo of AC 1 and thinking the game was all about stealth, and I get frustrated with stealth games. But, I was always thinking that I should try it anyway. I hope to get to it soon to really experience those locations standing on the top of a church steeple or something.
I'll remember that.
