starcraft said: I completely agree.
That said, everything up too and including that tank fight was pretty damn awesome.
I also wanted a more concrete stipulation of what's going to happen with Nate and Elena, as well as where Chloe will be off too now.
But yeah Shambala could have been awesome, but was ultimately disappointing. Maybe we were spoilt by things like the tank and the train? |
I was so pissed that Nate chose Elena over Chloe!
The chemistry between Chloe and Nate was so much better. The game is at its best when they're together. I hope she returns in the sequel.
But yeah, the tank, the train and the chopper in Nepal are some of the most memorable moments in gaming history. I was expecting something even more incredible after those, but alas, nothing :(

I have to agree with Quickdraw, I'm very happy that Elena and Nate ended up together, as opposed to Nate and Chloe.
OT:
All in all, I was quite satisfied with the ending. The bossfight could have been better, but the guardians were a nice challenge when mixed with the soldiers. As long as you know how to deal with them, and don't just waste 100 of bullets trying to kill them anyway 
But the ending cinematic, the bridge run... everything just came together so nicely for me, that the very few weak points I found could easily be forgiven.
And this has to be mentioned, but when you're fighting in that flooddrain (or whatever it is) with all the rain and thunder, that was quite awesome as well.
The train is probably my favorite part of the game though 
EDIT: Also, I'm currently going through it on hard, with a treasure guide, and I plan on platting it quite soon 
Then I'm gonna run around with my Marco Polo skin in multiplayer! This is one of the few multiplayer games that I actually like, and will most likely continue to come back to. Even though it is hellishly annoying to have people use the RPG, the grenade launcher and the Revenge-booster (the one that drops a live grenade when you die. Why does this thing keep appearing in games, despite being the worst thing to happen in gaming since ET on the ATARI 2600?)
EDITEDIT: I also really liked the truck chase to the monastary and the monastary it self
