My PC just couldn't handle it, only got around 20fps at best, so I had to play it at the office, with everybody sneaking in to get a peek. As you can imagine, the circumstances were far from ideal. Still, I enjoyed it lots. It IS a bit too similar to Far Cry, which I didn't really like that much. Only this time, the concept is really done justice, can't put it otherwise. There is real freedom of movement and action, the size of the levels is insane, but at the same time it doesn't feel as overblown and random as FC, it is really tight in the way it handles the mechanics.
I wouldn't say it's a revolution of any kind, but it's so rich and impressive at times that you just can't help feeling awed by it. Jury's still out on whether it's actually as fun as technically impressive, but the fighting is for lack of a better word, awesome.
