What's Happening

Test Chamber – Far Cry 3

UPDATE: 

One look at our comments sections here and on YouTube let us know loud and clear that you thought Jason blew it during the original video. We wanted to give him a chance at redemption, so we recorded a brand new episode. Check out the new look at the game, with Andrew Reiner and Dan Ryckert joining Jason on his quest to clear his name.

ORIGINAL POST:

Komodo dragons, pirates, and sharks are constant threats on and around the islands of Far Cry 3. Video Editor, Jason Oestreicher on the sticks? Not so much. Join Andrew Reiner and Matt Bertz as Jason shows off his brand of stealth, improper flamethrower technique, and why trying to hug a shark isn't a good idea.

Once you've taken notes on what not to do in the game, be sure to check out Matt's Far Cry 3 review. He liked it a lot. About as much as Reiner likes sharks.

  • LoL at the Jet Ski!

  • I don't know if you're opened to criticism.. But I've watched a lot of these test chambers. And especially this one and the Halo 4 one, the guy playing is always.. really awful. To put it lightly. It's hard to get a feel for the game when the player doesn't even kill more than two people or forgets how to swap his weapon. It's kinda hard to watch actually. I don't know how other people feel, but I think the person playing these chambers should have a bit more experience with the game before you start recording.
  • Games don't have a lot of consequences these days, do they?

    Good job JAAAASON.

  • This is definitely one to look for!

  • That's how I hunt sharks.

  • This game looks great!!!!!  Shark hunting I have never done in a game and am more than willing to try.

  • You guys suck at this game haha

  • As much as I love watching you guys flail around miserably in games, I think that is better suited for Replay. I laughed a lot at this episode, but if I was interested in this game I would be annoyed. It didn't do very much to highlight the game or its features when Jason kept dying. Especially with these more high-profile games, you should have the reviewer at the sticks. Yes, it's harder for them to talk but its better to show the game than talk about it.

  • This is more like what I'd hoped Crysis 2 would have been.

  • Too bad we didn't get to hear much from Jason's side of things. It's best for the actual person on the sticks to tell us how things are. In any case, it's always fun to get to hear from the editors. I would never dare risk taking out a shark that way, no sir.

  • Does the game have any splitscreen feature?
  • GI, please look into enhancing or maybe even replacing your video stream. It stutters a lot. I watch videos at a much larger resolution on Youtube. It's embarrassing.

  • I would love to troll the guy playing this game, but this will have to do.

  • I am so getting this game.

  • The guy on the controller really sucks and sort of ruined the test chamber episode...game looks cool though

  • This game looks amazing!! Can't wait to pick it up.

  • I know its been said already but I'll say it again. Please have someone more experienced behind the sticks GI. It's awesome getting to see a hands on look at the game but its pretty much pointless when the player can't take down more than one enemy before dying. I'm really interested in the game and its frustrating when the whole video is just a guy screwing off the entire time.

  • Looking forward to this one.

  • This game looks freaking awesome.

  • Nice.  Still deciding if I should get this game on release day or wait till it gets cheaper......
