    I really enjoyed this game. Far Cry games always deliver amazing open worlds, and this one was no different. Never been to Montana but I feel this really captured the great outdoors feel, and you could tell Ubisoft did their usual fine detail research with some of the locations that appear in the game and are modelled off real places.

    I wasn't into the game first, but after many hours of game play, I can attest to its great story and 4K graphics.

    Far cry is always a solid bet. This one is no exception. They brought back the formula that worked for 3 and 4. The humor is there (cheeseburger and his diabetes). The story is actually interesting. Some parts get repetitive and the character models are lacking just like the amount of weapon choices. If you’re looking for a fun way to spend some time blowing up cultists and trying not to die in absurd ways that will both infuriate and make you laugh then you will enjoy this game.

    The level of freedom coupled with superb gunplay puts Far Cry 5 head-and-shoulders above most of its competition. The setting of rural Montana makes for an interesting environment to explore. Far Cry 5 is one of the best games of 2018 and will keep you glued to the TV for several hours as you use your wingsuit to fly around, pop headshots, or do some fishing in the creek. There's a lot to see and do!

    Game starts crazy and keeps the crazy going, Wolves, Bears jumping out of nowhere eating people. Taking some crazy cult down, flying planes, fishing, hunting. Graphics on XBOX ONE X looks good with HDR on. Chose this over PS4 and PC cause i wanted to play on my X this time. Well Worth it, I don't buy GOLD editions of UBI games cause the complete editions always come out the following year with all the DLC at half the cost. Bought vanilla edition and happy with the game.

    Honestly the graphics were amazing! the game play was alright, I have to say though the story was kind of meh, i always felt bothered by the fact that it was such a slow story wasn't very exciting to me that is, the gameplay was fun, the graphics were great, it is a far cry game and i dont mind doing tasks repeatedly. i think my favorite part was hunting the animals and unlocking the support people, but all in all 4 stars for a very well made game but dull storyline

    The game is definitely a challenge even on Easy mode. The quests are challenging (even on Easy mode); the terrain and side activities are fun; and the graphics are phenomenal. The biggest downside is the inability to have multiple saves to act as lifelines during play. For Far Cry veterans, this may be the norm but for a newbie like me, it is the one thing that takes away from the game.

    I already own this game. My friend loves the outdoors. He likes to hunt and fish. Ubisoft did an great job on how many hunts and fishing you can do in this game. You are also suppose to take over territory by killing the enemies outpost in this game. Got my friend even liking to do that also. Great Game Would Reccomend. Thanks Ubisoft and Thanks Best Buy.

    Far Cry 5 is the best game of the series yet! Excellent game play, one of the best games I have played in a while. The only problem is you will get hooked and the time will fly by. This game mixes a first person shooter with an RPG. You aren't stuck to a simple story line. You can explore and do side missions which are a lot of fun. One of the best games I have played on Xbox One.

    Its another continuation of the Far cry series. Drugs, violence, propaganda, and of course, there isn't a 'pick a side' like in the 3rd installment. You can hunt animals, a nice hobby or nice way of earning money or even to pass time between missions. Only problem is you cant seem to fast forward or "wait" a few hours Great open world game, I am still playing it

    Several hours ina nd really enjoying it. It is what you’d expect from a far cry game and more. I have enjoyed all of the far cry games and if it’s not broke, well... don’t listen to most of the negative reviews who are disappointed that this game doesn’t make more of a political statement... it’s a game. Those reviews only fueled my purchase. Ubisoft did a good job on this one.
