So, whilst visiting the family for Christmas, I blitzed through Far Cry 3 in two overnight playthroughs. Damned impressive, that game. It's easily joint first with AC2 for my Favourite Ubisoft Game That I Can Remember At The Time. Highlight of the game? Setting up a giant takedown chain, using every available manoeuvre bar the From Below takedowns. Killed about a dozen guys in next to no time. Near the end of the game, there is a scene in which (SPOILER)Jason has a rage blackout and annihilates a large group of privateers. It's supposed to be this impressive testament to what a monster he is becoming. I wasn't too impressed, however, because I had already been that rage blackout.

You've got to hand it to Ubisoft; they have a knack for creating beautifully fluid and almost repulsively visceral combat that sets my loins a-jangling like I don't know what.
