GR:Far Cry jumps a trip in the time machine, and the result is a fever dream of neon colors and 80s references.

OXM UK: "Like its VHS inspiration, then, it's worth playing Blood Dragon to indulge in 80s nostalgia and tick off the list of cliches, and the story's over quickly enough that it doesn't wear out its second-hand jokes. That Ubisoft saw fit to make a shooter for laughs is enormously commendable, and a step that we hope others will follow. But its commitment to dumbing down means that this is a pure-bred B-game rather than all-star A-lister."

Jackson from DC writes: Are you the kind of person that laughs at one-liners in all those over-the-top action movies? Have you ever played Far Cry 3? Do you like the idea of cyborg-on-cyborg warfare?

Tired of action games taking themselves so seriously, Ubisoft has brought forth Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon which calls back to that bygone era of action. Blood Dragon is filled with tongue in cheek references, spoofs, and parodies of all the fan favorite quirks that fill that very special genre.

GR: Critics be damned. Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon doesn't give a fuck about them. In fact, it actively doesn't give a fuck about them. How does someone correctly begin a "critical" review about a game whose aesthetic is awesomeness in the most stupidly power-fisted way possible?

Every reference you fail to recognize only makes you less awesome.
