I haven't played any other Far Cry's before, so I cannot compare what I've seen so far to any past experiences with the series. However, I do know much about this, and I think I can answer many of your questions. For starters, the sexual content is not meant to be used as marketing for the game. Ubisoft wanted to make this game feel like you really are Jason Brody, and that you really are trapped on an island. Like many other islands, this one contains native people. In some native tribes, even today, the way they dress is much different than every-day people. Some tribes will not dress with full clothing, not because they are trying to be "sexy" and neither is Ubisoft trying to get you to buy the game because of its nudity. I think they were smart with this idea, to show that nudity can be placed into a game, to show the native culture of the island. As far as the hallucinations and drugs, I'm sure more of this will be explained throughout the story. However, what I can assume is that Vaas has something to do with buying or selling these drugs. Again, I don't believe that Ubi is really trying to make this game more inappropriate. The plot of the story takes place on an "insane island", and as you know from Vaas's definition of insanity, anything could happen in this game, and I wouldn't worry too much about this content.

The girl is Vass's sister, and Vass does not sound like a "native" of the island. He sounds like he's from East L.A. - a gangsta with a lot of firepower. I hope we don't get gimmicked out here. At least in FC2, they sounded like Afrikkans, and tribal Africans which added to the realism of the experience. I hope we don't get just a "gangsta" themed game to appeal to a specific-type of gamer - but I'm keeping my hopes up all the same.

They put A LOT of detail into the characters, especially Vaas, so I highly doubt that they wouldn't give him a proper back-story. They even went as far to say how he got the scars on his head; from shaving his hair with a machete.

...what I can assume is that Vaas has something to do with buying or selling these drugs...

Vaas has some smuggling affairs like arms trafficking but the drugs are made by Dr. Earnhardt

> Says he is concerned with video game drugs and single depiction of breasts

> Is willing to gruesomely murder hundreds of men using guns, knives, and explosives without batting an eye

Would you care to explain?

Would you care to explain?

Sometimes a news outlets like fox will go crazy over a game that has a boob, but don't bring up the fact that 99% of the game is you killing people.

Ah, okay, cuz I didn't get it at first.
