Looks Great, Sounds Great, Plays Great ...

I was going to buy this a month ago but held off because i kept hearing reports of extreme lag. You would be in the middle of a gun fight and suddenly the game would slow to a few frames per second.

I wished i had just bought it now as i got it for Christmas and spent all day playing it at one time i went 5 hours straight and experienced no lag.

Sometimes when you are in a large environment with ships landing and Strogg attacking you then you find the game slows a little but all in all this happens a couple of times.

I can only assume the memory leak reports are being blown up by PC fanboys that think Quake 1 & Doom 1 are the best games in the world. Rant over.

Anyway the graphics are built on the same engine as Doom3 and they look amazing. The sound of the weapons firing is crystal and no i don't have 5.1 i just have a Digital Sony TV and so if it sounds good on mine .....

Gameplay is great, every now and then you get a couple of guys follow you to help you on your mission and keeping them alive will provide you with gamerpoint unlocks.

Its a perfect balance in every way and yes i do agree in places there are problems but not enough to stop this game getting an A+. Well Done :)
