Let's just get that out of the way up front. I note as much because it's with my deep-seated love of <em>Far Cry 2</em> that I approached today's hands-off presentation of <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/game/far-cry-3"><em>Far Cry 3</em></a> ... and came away kinda worried.<br /><br />To be clear, the game is early. As in, "It's coming out some time next year" and that's all we know. Additionally, the demo shown off was actually just what was demoed during Ubisoft's press conference yesterday, albeit steered by Ubisoft game designer Andrea Zanini. So, given that, I haven't seen all that much more than what you saw yesterday. What troubled me, however, was the conversation I had with narrative lead Jason VandenBerghe post demo.<div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/far-cry-3-e3-2011/">Far Cry 3 (E3 2011)</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/far-cry-3-e3-2011/#4197540"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2011/06/farcry3e32011-1_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/far-cry-3-e3-2011/#4197541"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2011/06/farcry3e32011-2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/far-cry-3-e3-2011/#4197542"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2011/06/farcry3e32011-3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/far-cry-3-e3-2011/#4197543"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2011/06/farcry3e32011-4_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/far-cry-3-e3-2011/#4197544"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2011/06/farcry3e32011-5_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2011/06/08/far-cry-3-preview-wandering-off-course/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Far Cry 3 preview: Wandering off course</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2011/06/08/far-cry-3-preview-wandering-off-course/">Far Cry 3 preview: Wandering off course</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Wed, 08 Jun 2011 13:40:00 EST.
