There's around 40 extra minutes of gameplay for those who pre-order Ubisoft's Far Cry 3, teases the publisher. The Lost Expeditions is exclusive to those who slap their money down early.

It tests our survival skills in an old World War II ruin that's teeming with danger. Ubisoft have release a gameplay clip that's just as sporadic and violent as the game itself.

Gamers who preorder Far Cry 3 from GameStop will be getting a bonus four mission "Monkey Business" downloadable content pack which introduces quest-giver Hurk, who enjoys strapping bombs on monkeys to blow up his enemies.

Now that Ubisoft is climbing down on their always-on DRM scheme, the publisher's worldwide director for online games Stephanie Perotti has clarified their previous '93-95%' PC piracy statement.

Apparently they didn't mean that as a percentage across the board but "for some specific or popular" PC titles, from "internal and external research," and that "varies depending on the territory."
