OMG! I'm strictly a FPS guy, and I mistakenly bought this 3rd person RPG. WOW, I'm glad I did! Simply better than GRAW! Features I love include:
- Great graphics
- Smooth gameplay despite a massive number of characters art any time (Apple powerbook 15" bootcamp XP)
- Never boring! Even travel across town is fun
- FAST loading
- Despite a complete model of Manhattan island loaded all the time!!! How do they do this??
- Unreal movement. If I'd read about riunning up and down buildings, gliding/flying, etc I would have thought "must be crap to play" but it's so not! Really fun. With my FPS mindset I find being able to climb a ladder as being out there, but this if just SO out there!
- Incredible powers make it easy in easy mode, and still a challenge otherwise. It's just amazing how all these powers work to intuitively depending on the target. Claw a helicopter from the sky or cut nearby enemies in half with the same weapon
- Awesome gore. Not sure it could get much better. Even slo mo dismemberment :)
- And you can still grab weapons and use them if u still want
My only crit; I can save but not load a game! Saves seem to have to be done after a mission is completed, else you start over anyway. Maybe I'm being dim tho.
By far the best game I've ever played. I thought GRAW was great, then the sandbox of Fallout3 belw me away, and then this comes along with huge yet seamless sandbox, awesome graphics, and great gameplay to boot! The future of gaming is bright!
PS: Mac powerbook with XP bootcamp is a better gaming machine that the best Compaq laptop money can buy! I know, switched off compaq reluctantly and will NEVER go back.
