Have been playing “Far Cry”.

You spend 99% of the time trying to rescue a totally thick woman named Val.

I’ve saved her now, three times.

Now she is “helping” me on a mission. The sum total of her help thus far is:
“Look, there’s a badguy”
“They’re right on top of us!”
“Careful, there’s one on our six!”
“Jack! Lookup behind you!”

Then we have some very bad driving ( she got lost, pfft.. women drivers! )

Now I have to go kill all the people in a base so that she can waltz in, hack the security system and steal a nuke. Sure.. I’ll do all the hard work, fine.. but does she have to run around behind me, fully upright, in a bright white top while I’m prone, sniper rifle in hand trying to pick off the sentries while remaining unseen by the remaining guards?

In short, Val, in Farcry or Far Cry or whatever it’s called. Stupid. Doesn’t shoot. Gets stuck in bad situations. Stupid.
