Far Cry 3
Between virtual Python classes I’m back on virtual Rook Island playing Far Cry 3, and having eye watering, non blinking fun.

I’ve been introduced to an array of new weapons, and vehicles, from sniper rifles to flame throwers, and boats with gun turrets to the flimsy hang gliders. Even though I’ve put in 10+ hours, I have yet to open up half of the map. The option to just chill and do your own thing, or get as much involved with the plot as you wish, really does it for me.

There is so much to see and play with, I haven’t really tried the bow yet, and have just got started with the sniper rifle… although I do like to use an assault rifle, as there’s always ammo laying around.
