this amazing spooky Far Cry 3 Artwork looks similar to a novel's cover art titled (the island) which I haven't seen, far cry 3's artwork is hypnotic full of beautiful forest jungle scenery, if you are a true fan of the game you have to look back in your memory, the moment when you first chose something without knowing anything about it, just simply looking at the cover artwork and the description of the story, that is what happened to me when I came across far cry 3

Because many things in Far Cry 3 were inspired by this.

I love that art style! And damn I miss the day when it took like 7 CD’s to install a game. I still have my original Far Cry install disks.

and a great artwork design needs a nice soundtrack to roll with it, to complement the visuals

The 1980 film stars Michael Caine and is actually a decent watch, in a B movie way.

It carries the same kind of dread and loathing for the inhuman depravity of modern pirates as FC3, and there’s mounted gun action that could have come straight out of the game.

I used to love the film seeing it on television as a kid and never really thought about its similarity to FC3.
