Summary: Cnet should re-evaluate their plug for this game. if i read their review i might buy the game and then 80 hours later not be able to finish because of a major bug and be really upset at cnet for not researching their review better or not updating their reviews when major problems arise. Do not buy this game until a major fix has been tested. WARNING WARNING WARNING

Good but not great

Summary: I was looking forward to this one. Sadly it was far from what I expect. The choice to go where you want is a great feature of this shooter but unfortunately it isn't as rewarding as Fallout 3. It really blows when exploration mainly involves diamonds. Traveling around the map gets tedious quickly especially when your mini quest is located on the other side of the map. There's no real characters that you can really cling onto and actually care about. I lost interest after a few days of playing.
I can definitely say that does have wonderful graphics. Its amazing when it rains and probably has some of the most realistic brush fires currently. Now if only Fallout 3 can maintain an open world and have this level of graphics it'll be awesome. Ironically Fallout 3 has way more bugs and stale graphics but I find myself still playing it even after beating it. Its just a much more fun game.
