How controversial?

Not controversial at all.

(Except for people with anti-gay hangups)

How is this still a story?

Part of the story has been leaked from ubisoft and it has been revealed that the guy sitting down ISN'T EVEN WHITE! So the stupid people complaining about it don't have to any more. Case closed.

If you want to talk about an issue that this has raised, talk about how people were upset when they thought a white guy was sitting over a person of different race on the cover of FC4, but on the cover of FC3 when a latino guy was sitting over a white guy buried up to his neck in the sand... they DIDN'T CARE! So in their mind it's only racist when a white guy is oppressive, which makes them all hypocrites. THAT is a story.

Aren't they the real racists for noticing this in the first place, and the fact that they only get upset if the guy is white?

Omnisonne3617d ago

exactly, the problem is with the people that see everything in black/white, as in skin color.
They would probably even sue M&M's for not having enough brown M&M's in their bag compared to yellow ones

jollygoodchap83617d ago

RE5 all over again...A non-issue blown out of proportion by a handful of closet racists.

Lord_Sloth3617d ago

No more or less than any other title in the series. Everybody is too quick to be offended anymore.

bitboi3617d ago

well it looks like they changed the boxart,so there's that...

The only "controversy" I've seen related to this game, are these articles that say the word "controversy".

There is none. I sometimes hate authors.

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

-Foxtrot35d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor35d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos35d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius35d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger8835d ago (Edited 35d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.

I would put 5 above 6 but agree with the other ratings. Though 6 has more refined gameplay compared to 5 it's lack of a compelling story really does hurt it imo but if you are a gameplay fiend and don't really care about story it makes sense.
