Not to disagree with the reviewer, but this game is just one of the best console games out right now. It's almost too bad that Gears of War is so hot on its heels because this will probably never get played after that comes out (at least by me!). For now, though, it's the pinnacle of graphics, multi-player and FPS, although I can see where the stealth aspect of the game might be too slow for die-hard Halo and Unreal Tournament fans...
If I have to find a flaw in the game, it's in the camera control under water, which is sometimes a little confusing under the ice. Not too major a concern, especially since swimming under ice may well be disconcerting (I hope I never find out!!) This game is just rock solid. Ubisoft Shanghai did a fantastic job here and I'm anxious to see what they do next!
