So...since this interview is 99.9% about Far Cry 3 BD, it is my duty to say that the game is awesome and everyone who enjoyed 80s action/sci-fi needs to play it. For God's sake you come in gun's blazing to a Predator reference.
And The Thing on PS2/Xbox is one of the benchmarks for licensed games I think. It built on a story and also tried to make a completely new gameplay mechanic, which worked SOMETIMES and was cooler in 2002 than it is now, but it's still a fun game for the most part, and it is fairly long and substantial. I mean, even without it being The Thing related, I think it's a pretty f**king good survival horror game for the time. I'd love to see an HD remake on XBLA or something.
