I want this game BAD now... I'm keen as to play through it all, I can see myself missioning my way through the whole game. Unfortunately I can't have it this weekend as it would be the perfect opportunity to get some play time.
I like ALT 2 but the cover this is correct, it's retarded to use the zoom scope while in cover, so basically a useless control style which has everything else correct. I personally dislike pressing the joystick as a button in Standard 1 but that's how I will play. I also hate joystick button when running as well, it's annoying.
Kantor you sound like a rabbid fanboy in a lot of these posts... realise this - not everyone is going to like this game.
To me, I wanted this game to be the first really 'next gen' game that I'd play.
I want everything that I've felt about the game to continue, but invisible walls take me out of the experience and it makes me lose a little bit of the 'feeling' that I had before that.
The AI is incredible though, I don't know how people can say it's not. On the harder difficulties (as long as harder doesn't just = less health for you) I think this game will really shine.
I noticed quite a few times that I would kill a guy near a ledge, and he would 'pop' to the falling off the edge animation, when realistically the impact of my bullet shouldn't have propelled him in that direction - it took me out of the experience again, and again a little disappointing.
Game is good and I have to reserve judgement until I play the whole thing (i know i'm going to love it) but I am a harsh critic and it's not perfect so it'll probably deserve about an 7.5 or 8/10.
First game I plan on buying in a LONG time so that's saying something. The only other game in my sights that I know i'm definitely buying this year is Starcraft 2.
