Far Cry 3 will be exploring some interesting theses with the use of drugs and some nudity, but it appears those anxious to explore the game's new direction will have to wait. Ubisoft has announced the game has been delayed to December 4th. It will come out on November 29 in Europe.

"We're taking more time to create the best possible gameplay experience," said Dan Hay, producer at Ubisoft, in the release announcing the delay. "Far Cry 3 is a huge offering and we want every element of this insane, action-packed adventure to be of the highest possible quality for the players."

The game had originally been planned for release in September. Andrew got a look at the game at E3, and the trailer below offers a pretty good glimpse just how crazy the game is shaping up to be.

      That's fine I'd rather have it delayed, then rushed and have the gameplay suffer.

      When I saw the "definition of insanity" trailer, it looked like Far Cry 1 meets Call of Duty meets cover system. I was not impressed. This title could use more time in the oven, but I worry that two months is not enough.

      Im surprised it wasn't just the PC version delayed, unless of course they will wait till December and delay the PC version into 2013 just to piss us off.

        This obviously what is going to happen next. I am actually going to be surprised if the PC version will come out at the same time as console. I'm really not expecting this, though.

      This is almost always good news, looking forward to it being a quality game.

      They need a few extra months to throw a bikini top on that chick before Hilary Clinton makes piles of the game to burn in public.

      Far Cry 3 just remains kind Meh to me.

      Especially since they've left behind Far Cry 2 for "BOOBS! GUNS! FLAMING TIGERS!"
