Anyone play this game?

Just your standard FPS as far as story goes, but damn, has some awsome graphics. Im running a Geforce FX5600 XT 128mb - 1 gig system ram, and celeron 2.2 - even with that, the game lags on high quality...some of the graphics are just stunning. Also take 1 dvd or 5 or 6 normal cds :eek:

worth a download for sure. Im willing to bet the MP makes this game even better though.

Um I have it. I'm kinda dissapointed with it. Like its trying to be realistic while still trying to be like a James Bond type thing.

I must say that the graphics are stunning. Mine lags on 1024x768 with mulitiple enemies, but on 800x600 its fine.

In other words, I'm trying to say its too easy to die.

I think it's a great game. I laugh at it sometimes though when you can just tell they're trying to show off the graphics (nothing wrong with that though). Specifically in the last level I played (can't remember the name, maybe cooler) I was in this hallway waist deep in water. The water was reflecting everything from the flickering lights to the burst of fire off my gun. There was smoke seeping out of pipes or something on the ceiling. Trigens were going nuts, rockets were flying, it was insane. All the flickering lights/smoke kinda made a strobe light effect.

Long story short, it was f'n beautiful. People say that graphics don't make a game, but I would willingly play through a worse game (story wise) if it looked this good.

I beat it a few weeks ago and am around half way through again, on Realistic (hardest difficulty).

Its....hard.

I heard that Realistic isn't as hard as the one before because the enemies die too easy or something. I haven't tried it myself, what do you think about it? I'm still workin my way through on medium :lol:
