GearNuke: "While Far Cry 3 was a terrible mess on the PS3 and Xbox 360, its successor is surprisingly a decent port on the previous generation platforms."

There is nothing for it on Metacritic either, very strange.

slane33815d ago

Farcry 3 was not a terrible mess on Ps3 & 360. These gaming sites are full of it.

raWfodog3815d ago

Yes, that was a dramatic overstatement. I enjoyed Far Cry 3 very much on the PS3 and had no issues with it at all. I don't see what they would have considered a 'terrible mess'.

Dasteru3815d ago (Edited 3815d ago )

Probably because it averaged 22fps on both and had constant drops as low as 11fps. Fun game but horrible optimization on consoles.

lfc_4eva3815d ago

Far cry 3 was fantastic on the 360. Loved every minute of it.

bloop3815d ago

Yeah, had FC3 on 360 too and don't remember it being a mess. Long time since I played it but can remember enjoying every moment of it. Ran smooth enough as much as I can remember too.

TheFirstClassic3815d ago

THE SCREEN TEARING!!! My god it was awful. Nonstop screen tearing, I don't understand how other people could bear it.

It also still had frequent fps drops, despite no vsysnc.

PizzaSteve3815d ago

PS4 looks just as good as PC or maybe better.

let not forget better textures lighting shadows aa draw distance.... this is going to take too long.

xBraiNshOcK3815d ago

It doesn't look better. Far Cry 4 on PS4 is running like on high settings on PC at 30fps. I am getting very high and some ultra settings at 40-60fps on my PC.

All_Consoles3815d ago (Edited 3815d ago )

Hardly, look at the detail specifically on the face and water. Pc is much better looking

Not to mention you can run the pc version at 1440p 60fps if you want

Dasteru3815d ago (Edited 3815d ago )

Besides the PC version having better textures, much better lighting, higher resolution, higher framerates, better AA, better AF, a wider FOV and most likely a much longer draw distance (hard to tell from any of those screens), but yeah sure, the PS4 version totally looks better.

There's really not much difference between them besides the higher res, textures, etc.

quenomamen3815d ago

You stating the differences, then saying there really aren't many differences does not make sense. High res textures and lighting can make a nite and day difference.

NBT913815d ago

Pretty sure that was the joke...

xBraiNshOcK3815d ago

The fog combined with the ultra shadows on PC settings make this game look a whole lot different the the PS4 version. Its why I got it on PC rather than PS4. Not to mention the higher frame-rate.

late but still a good move, oobi

InUrFoxHole1d 16h ago

Seriously, it's great to see devs add things to older games.

OhReginald2d ago

Sony....you're really letting ubisoft out of all all companies to out class you??? Give us the bloondborne 60 fps patch....ffs

dantesparda2d ago

I second this (Bloodborne 60fps) plus damn, Ubisoft, you're doing great but now the last thing I want youi to do is mae Far Cry Primal 60fps and AC Unity

Profchaos1d 21h ago

Everytime someone asks for a bloodborne patch it gets delayed 1 day.

ETA next century

I_am_Batman1d 12h ago

They know it's gonna cost them sales of the inevitable Remake that'll probably come around the PS6 launch.

raWfodog2d ago

Good news for when, or If, I ever play it. It’s waaay down on my backlog list lol.

P_Bomb2d ago

I like these 60fps patches. Hoping they’ll do Ghost Recon Wildlands someday.

Yi-Long2d ago

Kudos to Ubisoft for once again going back to older titles and then offering a nice upgrade for free. I know the company gets a lot of criticism, in quite a few cases understandable and justified, but in this area of contintued post-launch support for their SP games, they deserve some credit.

Ubisoft Removes Nudity in Silent Far Cry 4 Update (New Info: Changes Reverted)

Update: Ubisoft has acknowledged that the Japanese version of the game, which includes regional censorship, was mistakenly released globally. The company says it has reverted these changes in the game's worldwide branch.

Ubisoft has quietly removed nudity from Far Cry 4 in a recent update, sparking speculation about Tencent’s growing influence on the publisher.

You can murder, mame, and viciously attack people, but anything that deals with showing a body in a natural state whether for titillation or narrative, is some truly terrible thing. We are so weird with our puritan thought process. Feed our bloodlust and fuel our enjoyment for entertainment of simulating acts of harm and murder, but god forbid you see digitized TnA. It will never make sense to me.

Rebel_Scum26d ago

tbh even if they did remove it, it doesnt matter. I dont even remember when there was nudity in the game. If it was there it was so inconsequential.

B5R26d ago

Agreed. It absolutely makes no sense

Also, even though Ubisoft reverted the changes that removed nudity, there's the bigger issue of developers being able to make large changes to the game you paid for whenever they want.

Stellar Blade comes to mind. This is why buying physical is the way to go.

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

-Foxtrot413d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor412d 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.

Profchaos413d 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

Demetrius413d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger88412d ago (Edited 412d 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.
