Really. Wow, I dont even know where to start.
Youve all heard about this- I just wanted to set some stuff down into writing.
The game is the single best Ive ever played-destructible scenery, uber graphics....yadda yadda (the snopsis says it all), Ill just show you an example of what happens in the game.
I shoot down a helicopter, which falls onto a guard tower, which blows up a jeep, which flies over the bridge and sinks into the sea.
You can tear through buildings with you bare hands, throw North Koreans through buildings, jump 20 feet over one, and punch a soldier 30 feet with super strength.
The graphics are probably the best there ever have been, same for scenery-you can blow up any house and cut down any tree, but for one thing: the story kinda peters out towards the end, and constrains you (though the spaceship level is wonderful, you have to fight in zero g, without a clue where the ground is), taking away the games most valuable asset-total freedom.
But the game is still the overall finest on the market, and if you dont have it, you are missing out on one of the best games you are likely to have played.
There is just one really hefty minus-the computer requirements are colossal, which is fine for us gamers, but for anyone without a gaming rig, playing the game at full settings will be difficult.
