Critic Reviews for Far Cry 3 Classic Edition
A unambitious and streamlined remaster of one of the better games in the Far Cry franchise, Far Cry 3 Classic Edition nonetheless provides value and satisfying open-world shenanigans in spades.
This is a very straightforward port of Far Cry 3, a game loved and loathed in equal measure. The Classic Edition is a great way for newcomers to experience one of the best games in the series, despite some clunky controls. Many people will have made up their mind about Jason's journey years ago, but on its own merit, this is a competent re-release of a fun, if a little dated, open world shooter.
Far Cry 3 still offers damn good time, and the Classic Edition is a great way to revisit Ubisoft's influential classic or dive into it with fresh eyes. The tried-and-tested formula has advanced in recent years, leaving some aspects of Far Cry 3 to feel aged and inconsiderate, which could be too high a hurdle for newcomers to overcome.
Far Cry 3 Classic Edition does a good job reminding me both why Far Cry 3 was so loved, and how some things needed to be changed for the better. Still, it's a great game even today.
Far cry 3 is one of the best games of the last gen and it is good news that we can play its remaster version now in 8TH generation. Far Cry 3: Classic Edition is still an amazing fun game that can make you more than 30 hours of enjoyable experience of a beautiful first person shooter-action adventure. The hunting system in Far Cry 3 is still one of the most satisfying mechanics that we have seen in a game. Gameplay is so variable and has a large amount of new content for you to do on every points of its large map. Also I must mention that without a doubt, Vas is one of the best antagonists in the gaming history and he is one of the biggest advantages of the Far cry 3 and Far Cry 3: Classic Edition. Beside all of these good points, I must say that “remaster” isn’t a very good word for Far Cry 3: Classic Edition, because it has seen very little graphic improvements and it is better to say that Far Cry 3: Classic Edition is only a simple port of the main game. In the end I must say that either or not you played Far Cry 3 in last gen, it is still worth your time and money to experience one of the best first person shooters that we have seen so far. Far Cry 3: Classic Edition.

Don’t play Far Cry 3 expecting a great story or a traditional shooter experience. This game is meant to be seen as an enthralling adventure amongst the trees and jungles of some tropical paradise, waiting for one brave hero to save it from its woes.
The core game is still a marvel to behold even after six years post release, the dangerous Rook Islands are beautiful yet deadly with sandy beaches, looming mountains and sweltering jungles. The story has also stood the test of time meaning that even seasoned players can enjoy Far Cry 3’s tale of violence and cultism as it quickly unravels before them.
Far Cry 3 Classic Edition is a great game, it just hasn't had anything done to it to improve the experience.
