Far Cry 3

At least it looks like the did a decent job cloning CoD, which is more than I can say for the last game. Also, the 3D map for designating airstrikes looks slick.

The lighting looks fantastic ! Wonder how it will look on the ps3. Far Cry 2 did have better shadows on the ps3 over 360.
Do we have any ps3 footage ?

Not sure, but, according to what's written in the corresponding article:

http://www.vg247.com/2012/04/04/far-cry-3-brand-new-hd-video-why-multiplays-a-beach/

the footage does not seem to be from console but from PC played with Xbox 360 controller:

The cycle repeats and it seems it’s simply an afternoon for being shot in the back; this I attribute in equal parts to my own failure to “check my corners” when indoors, my insistence on standing still to marvel and the scenery when outside and too slow a turning circle when using a 360 controller.

There’s a marked reduction in the number of bullets that are drilled into me once I ditch the pad and take up keyboard and mouse, though it’s then necessary to reduce mouse sensitivity to its lowest setting to avoid manic twitching (it’s surely no coincidence that we’re being shown a game known for its beauty on a PC powerful enough to host Skynet).

Very linear and non-interactive :\

Also very low quality SSAO.

Was my first thought as well

I like how they put scripted set pieces in farcry, the lack of such element in FC2 literally bored me to death.

I remember Uncharted having much better animations and voice acting. I'm not sure why they are bothering showing off a terrible version of Uncharted 3. Between this and the Cod rip off MP, they are certainly making a good case to not buy the game. But they have yet to convince me of that.

haha ... plz, a few set piece scenes scattered throughout a huge sanbox FPS is not an uncharted version and as someone who played the FC2 MP quite a bit, I am glad ethey upgraded the MP...

So, after some searching around and getting a few conflicting answers, does anyone know quite what engine this is using? Is it a true DUNIA 2 or is DUNIA 2 a heavily modified Cryengine 3?

Maybe you should watch and listen to the first minute of the following video:

Well, that's encouraging. And I remember that interview now, though I had no idea about DUNIA's origins in CE1's codebase. I wonder if that's the source of the CE3 reports that have been parroted around Far Cry 3 in the last year or so. I mean, yeah, it nearly looks like a modified CE3, but it's cool that it's not. It means they have a powerful engine on their hands better suited to scalability.

When are the PS+ m,embers gonna get the beta ????? This game looks freaking immersive and the place to get lost into for months. Really want to see how it performs on the ps3.
