PERFECT!

Very happy with the improved graphics. Also, the new chapters definately caught me off guard, in a good way. I was running through the game actually wishing that there were more grubs and then the bridge level happened. Yeah, they kinda stretched it a bit but it added some unpredictability to the mix.
I've taken the time to analyze the game's difficulties. I've beaten the game numerous times all the way through "Casual", "Hardcore", and "Insane". Now since my goal here is not to boast, I would just like to say that the creators really did a great job differentiating between the three difficulties.

The coop is very smoothe and I enjoy having my whole screen while having a "Dom" or "Marcus" who is actually useful during hard events in the gameplay.

Definately an improvement from the console version. Not only did we PC gamers get all the new maps FIRST, but we also have the option of creating, playing, and even hosting our own custom maps.
Also, the caliber of player that the PC version brings to the plate is generally much higher than the majority that you may see on the console version. These are guys/girls that have taken time to build/buy a custom PC specifically made for gaming. (Not too many snot-nosed punks here)

(NOW FOR THE CONS)

-------BULLET LAG----------
--BULLET LAG---------------
-----------BULLET LAG------

The still existing bullet lag that you find on the console version is still here on the PC. Although you are able to monitor your connection much more precisely (which allows you to know which host has the better connection), the bullet lag is still so very intense. Those of us who have made our way up the leaderboards have learned to adapt much better than others but it still doesn't make it fair to the other players.
It appears that most players that experience higher bullet lag than others will resort to very primitive (nooby) tactics while in a match.
"To tell you the truth, sometimes it's the only way to survive the horrible connections."


All in all, it is an AMAZING shooter with great handling (and a few glitches) that attracts all types of shooter gamers out there.

I give this game a 9.5 out of 10.0
