Far Cry 3
Far Cry 3 is the third installment in the Far Cry franchise that's unsurprsingly set on another beautiful tropical island.

You'll also meet some really odd and disturbed people along the way; people whose loyalty changes whenever it suits them.Being an open world game, you are given complete freedom when deciding on how to approach an objective. There are plenty of vehicles for you to use as well as tons of weapons that can be customized. Far Cry 3 also has a co-op aspect where you can play with up to 4 of your friends via campaign mode, or you can also play the multiplayer mode where team-play is highly emphasized. Best yet, the game even has a map editor, allowing players to create new content for other players to enjoy.
Featuring gorgeous graphics, a crazy yet engaging storyline as well as a fun and flexible gameplay, Far Cry 3 is an amazing sequel to the franchise. If you love Far Cry, you'll enjoy this version of it.
Serious Sam 3: BFE
Serious Sam 3: BFE is a first-person, action shooter that offers an explosive, bullet-hell-like gameplay on top of an already pretty frantic, arcade-styled shooting action. Kiting the enemies around is a skill you'll need in this game since it doesn't have the sophisticated systems that modern tactical shooters have, like cover or duck and roll. There are plenty of weapons, including a nice selection of melee weapons, for you to carry out your massacre with and you can easily switch between them whenever you like! Not to mention, the game has several new enemy types, including the massive Khnum as well as the massive AND hideous Scrapjack, in addition to the usual ones.Serious Sam 3 also has several game modes, including co-op multiplayer, versus multiplayer along with survival single and multiplayer. If you have your friends around your place, you can even play the game in split-screen mode and yell your heads off together when a monster caught both of you off guard. Best yet, creative players and modders are even given a level editor to play with. New mods or levels created can also be shared to the game community via Steam Workshop.
When it comes to crazy, almost non-stop action, Serious Sam is among the best game franchises to play. Serious Sam 3: BFE is their latest game and thus, it does look a lot better than any of their previous games, but you can still expect the same old (equally exciting) gameplay you've come to love.
