It's effin amazing, best looking console game, it just smokes anything else in terms of polycount, shader work, shadowing, lighting. It's just so amazing looking, and it's still oh so smooth.
As soon as Drake gets out of the parachute and starts going you see how close to CGi it all looks. It's just so good :O.
Oh, and the issue with the demo is in the PAL PS3s apparently, it works fine on my buddy's USA import, but won't run on my PAL saying it needs the disc, probably because it looks for region specific files (PAL version will have loads of different languages). Sucks.
Yeah, but animation and graphics are just two levels above anything else, gotta repeat it, I'm stunned.
The shooting seems a bit like GeoW, but less "heavy". It seems more natural and fluid, you can feel that you're controlling a real dude, instead of steroid fed space marine. Platforming seems like your regular fare, and is well executed, nothing new.
The combination of shooting elements which are excellent, with platforming that isn't much dkifferent thatn what could be found in PoP, with those graphics and sceneries makes it an absolute hit.
AAA, I might hype a lot of games, but rarely think of them as highly as I do about this one. It is surely the best PS3 game released so far, it should satisfy and appeal to anyone, it's mix of gameplay is perfect, it's AV presentation is second to none, high above anything else released so far. If you have a PS3, buy it! If you don't, then you suck, cause right now there are already enough PS3 exclusive games to make any self respecting gamer buy one.
If only I was hardcore enough to play the demos more than 3 times in a row... Can't wait for the final game.
