This is a general discussion thread for all video game related topics. Is there a new game coming out that you're psyched about? Want to talk about your favorite franchise and find fellow fans? Or do you just want to get some input on a new release before you head to the store to buy it? This thread will be the center for all that and more.
I'd like to start off the conversation by talking about Far Cry 3. The game's trailers made it look pretty damn cool, but since it's come out I've seen very little fanfare surrounding the game. It's gotten some pretty solid ratings, but it hasn't attracted the attention of Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, Elder Scrolls, or Grand Theft Auto, four other successful series.
Has anyone played Far Cry, and if so are you a big fan of the Far Cry series or did you just pick up Far Cry 3 for the first time?
