You know what bothered me the most. I can live with the water and stuff, but I am not convinced that the movement away from fully rendered cinematics is a good one. Especially when the camera is 3 inches away from the characters face.

I am talking about the opening intro with them in the plane. That is a perfect example of an opportunity to use fully rendered characters. It would have drawn you in more as a gamer to see them up close and looking as real as possible with better mouth movements. Just a thought.

Great review man, way to keep it real. I played the demo and I liked it, but I did notice some of the things you mentioned. The water looks great when you are about 3 feet in, but when it meets the land they didn't bother to change the surface texture which ends up making it look like plastic wrap.

The way Drake can pop out from behind stuff and shoot from the hip is pretty bad a$$. I couldn't do thaht in real life but that is what we buy games for right?

Peace
