Let me just start out by saying that this game is the best game I have played so far on my PC (better than Driver San Francisco, Deus Ex HR, Nexuiz, Dear Esther, NFS Undercover, Crysis, all of that sh*t).

This doesn't come close to the masterpiece that was Red Dead Redemption but it's still a prime example of Rockstar's constant talent. I am yet to see a single game developed by Rstar that isn't near-perfect.

I heard a lot about this game back when it came out, but I completely overlooked it considering it's theme was something completely uninteresting to me. And that's still true, I have no interest in Noire movies or literature. But that's irrelevant, if something is well executed it will impress anyone. And boy has this impressed me. I've played little over 6 hours so far and the atmosphere has completely sucked me in. Unlike the other games I've played this week, I'm looking at you Deus Ex HR. >.>

My favorite part so far has been the chases on foot, it feels so real (pc graphics for life yo) and the shaky camera effect always helps. Speaking of graphics... Oh god dat graphix. Apart from the incredibly lacking AA (I saw jaggies... everywhere) this game is mostly photorealistic at all times. With the help of the motion captured facial movements interrogations are a pleasure as well. As for said questionings and interrigations they have been quite intriguing, I love that feeling of suspense before accusing a person of lying, only to find out that you were wrong. Or when someone really is lying, or hiding something, and you choose "doubt" or "lie" and bingo! You are correct! :P

I just love the atmosphere of it all, it's incredibly immersive which is one of those things I really count on while playing a game. That I will eventually lose myself in it's brilliance instead of constantly noticing flaws in every corner (again... Deus Ex).

Well, just letting you guys know that you should really try this game out if you haven't already, you'll enjoy it.

Also, 2 quick speedpaints from yesterday: :p
