Far Cry 3 screenshots are like beautiful picture postcards but with more dead people

If you ignore the dead dudes floating in the water, the setting for Far Cry 3 could be such a lovely holiday destination. Just bathe in the blue-sky palm-tree sunshine loveliness of those screenshots. They're so bloody tropical we should probably get diphtheria and tetanus vaccinations before even looking at them. So if it's all rain and greyness outside where you are, make your eyes happy by browsing the following pictures (but try to ignore the nasty stuff like corpses and executions).

If you have a vague feeling that you've seen these pics before, it's because at least some of them (maybe even all of them, but I can't remember every single frame) are taken from the E3 reveal video. If you've got 7 minutes to kill, you shouldgo watch that videobecause its does a wonderful job of making Far Cry 3 look like a very sexy prospect indeed.

Here's some useful info that I feel obliged to include: Far Cry 3 is a first-person shooter for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. It's currently scheduled for release February 2012.
