Hey everyone. Welcome to another episode of Four Player Network's Audible Impressions. I am your host,

Jeffrey Demello, an editor at 4Playernetwork.com, and with me, 4Player Podcast's host, Nick

Kenderson. What's host, Nick Henderson.

What's up, Nick?

Hello, I'm tired.

I'll just give you a slight warning.

I just woke up.

And after a night of drinking and sleeping for about four hours,

I'm going to do my best to sound intelligent on this pod.

So we're here to talk about Far Cry 3, which is Tuesday's newest release, and quite frankly,

the last, like, big release of the year. I mean, just to start things off, I'm a big fan of

Far Cry 2. I didn't like... Oh, that's good. I was just gonna say, because I thought I was kind of alone in that, in that, uh, that because I love Far Cry 2.

a lot of that is, can be attributed to just how good the game looks.

Now, a lot of people are probably going to just judge it be like, oh, it looks like crap,

because they're comparing it obviously to the PC version, which is what they've been

showing everywhere.

I showed it at E3, they had nothing but PC version set up.

All the demos they've been showing at like conferences and stuff.

Those have all been PC version.

So it sucks to be following a game for so long and then have it come out and then technically play the inferior version. So it's it sucks to be following a game for so long and then have it come out and then
