Thats right.
My wife now plays Far Cry 3.
Not because I forced her to. But because of the Freeroaming aspect and guns.

Story - I've never felt so many emotions in one game since Mass Effect 1 or 2. You feel like you know the characters and feel connected to them. The story is very close to a film plot and the acting and facial engines are awesome. Through out the game it feels like you are always learning about new things and new characters and learning about yourself.

Gameplay - PERFECT gameplay. Imagine Crysis 1 & farcry 2 put into one game. The AI is very smart and challenging. Taking different cities at different angles is what makes the gameplay amazing and there are so many different experiences like be pounced by a tiger while you are trying to survive an ambush (Randomly generated).

Another huge aspect of the game are the guns and how they differ from each other. The gun selection and accessories are not a deal breaker but every thing is balanced out. Like the fact that you can win this game but either sniping the entire way through, or knife everyone you see, or put down mines to kill everybody. You aren't forced to use a specific gun UNLESS it's a side mission.

One other "minor" detail in the game which is, I think, "major" is the driving and vehicles of the game. Driving around is very fun with the environment. The only downside is there should have been more vehicles to choose from and air vehicles.

My favorite part of the game is to take over every city and trying to make it diverse.

Sound & Music is awesome in the game even the funny radio music when you are in a vehicle. The only annoyance that I have with the background music is in the menu cause its very repetitive and dull.

OVERALL - This is a close to perfect game.

And if my wife likes it... oh you know... you will think it is unbelievable.
