I have this on steam and it no longer works I ended up using a cracked copy instead which runs just fine on linux but I would like a drm free version instead because I don't trust cracked games due to security reasons.

Far Cry 3 and Far Cry 4 were the period of peak Far Cry. Solid graphics, great protagonists, matured combat, and no woke. Both games are old and are a perfect match for Good Old Games.

It is one of the best games I've played, for my taste, along with farcry 4. No modern fps can give me what this gave me during my golden times. I'd be a happy man once I can keep a copy of it with me forever and forever mine.

This is the best game from the far cry series. Everything about it is great whether it’s story, gameplay, or beautiful map. A game like this needs to be available in gog so this masterpiece can be preserved.

A game that truly deserves to be on GOG, with all the online functionality and game modes restored and Ubisoft Connect (previously known as U-Play) being thrown into the gutter where it belongs.
My first Far Cry game, and one of the first games in general I played when I started (admittedly way too young) playing mature games. I remember my half brothers introducing it to me and having a blast going around and blowing things up, not really understanding the story at the time but still loving the gameplay.

Far Cry 3 is my favorite Part of the Francise, than comes 4, Primal, 2, 1, 5 and somewhere between i can put Blood Dragon also in it. Far Cry 6 i havnt played it yet. And yes i've got, exept of FC 6, all Games on Uplay already but i would like to have it on GOG more likely. And because FC 1 and FC 2 are already in here in the Store the Series has to continue.
Far Cry 3 is always a game I try to replay once every year. It's special to me and I don't know what else to say honestly. Other than to say that I think it deserves the title of Good Old Game. If you guys also somehow find a way to bring back the co-op campaign and the other online features that Ubisoft shut down, that'd be awesome.
Love the game, one of the last good u-bee-slop games. Anyway, I own it on both Steam (bought) and Uplay (was a freebie, I think), AND I want to have it on GOG. Just because.

Max Payne
Max PayneMax Payne is a man with nothing to lose in the violent, cold urban night. A fugitive undercover cop framed for murder, hunted by cops and the mob, Max is a man with his back against the wall, fighting a battle he cannot hope to win. Max Payne is a relentless story-driven game about a man on the edge, fighting to clear his name while struggling to uncover the truth about his slain family amongst a myriad of plot-twists and twisted thugs in the gritty bowels of New York during the century's worst blizzard. The groundbreaking original cinematic action-shooter, Max Payne introduced the concept of Bullet Time in videogames. Through its stylish slow-motion gunplay combined with a dark and twisted story, Max Payne redefined the action-shooter genre.
