Very fun 1st person shooter except the bugs in it really draw away from the experience, especially when it crashes a lot in certain parts of the game, for vista at least. They have released a few patches that haven't done much to address the vista problems and crashes, so hopefully in the future us vista users can join the rest. Also the multiplayer looks like it could be very fun, but it is very lagy in that, all the players you see actually float across the screen, the don't walk normally. Again a patch to help fix this would be great, as the multiplayer looks great. The graphics in this game seem old, but with dynamic lighting and other effects it is surprisingly very good looking, and the game play is great too. Very impressive feel.
