I've taken a trip back to the glorious 1980s in Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. Here are some thoughts on the game.

As a standalone downloadable title from Ubisoft using the Far Cry 3 engine, Blood Dragon is a funny first-person shooter. It's chocked full of 1980s references from movies like "The Terminator" to adjusting tracking on a VCR. It does a good job at not taking itself too seriously.

However, Blood Dragon is short on content, which is expected due to its $15 price tag. The main story is only a few hours long, while extra side missions, which get repetitive, are another few hours. It's a good game to pick up if you have nothing to do on a Saturday.
