Far Cry 4 doesn't differ from Far Cry 3 greatly aside from it's obviously brand new story and setting and that's just fine for me. The series has become the first-person shooter for a fan of singleplayer-geared first-person shooters like me. Simply setting off into the bush on foot is as thrilling and fraught with potential as any game I've ever played. Every second really is a story, as per the game's marketing tagline. For once, the suits got it right.

Certainly features a lot to love and you should have a good time. Just don't expect to digest everything it has to offer.

The story isn't always fantastic, but when it hits the mark (read: when Pagan Min shows up), it can be absolutely wonderful. In this game, there's tons to do, and you'll really enjoy doing all of it, particularly if you're riding an elephant as you go.
