    You can sometimes check their posts and see if they're a scumbag.
    The guy I sold to joined today, and the only posts he made were to me, so I was taking a chance.

    That was a risk but you gotta start somewhere.

    That we do. We have too much free time with which to think about stupid shit.

    Now is this where I opt to point out that practically everything I just said could also be tossed into the original DE and that '00 was the year that also gave us Thief 2 and Perfect Dark?

    I find it really pointless comparing graphics these days. The current consoles are so powerful it's barely even an issue anymore. I seriously can't think of a single game I've played in the last several years where I've thought "Wow, this looks like utter shit." If the art style is good and the game runs smoothly that's all that matters.

    You've never played any budget Activison shooters then.

    You are right, but then again, you still haven't played Fallout 3

    The amount of times I took that game back only for it to hurt me again. Ahhh memories.

    But, again, that's usually someone simply stating the obvious. Critics have to be overly critical otherwise they risk people pointing out their errors. Others simply find whatever reason to whine they can.
    The lighting was alright, for the most part, and textures were hit and miss. Crysis is still the best looking game I've played, and I don't expect console games to measure up to something that was designed with staying power in mind. It's really a shame that they screwed the plot so hard in the second game.

    I think mid-release PS2 games look fine, as long as they're rendered at double resolution.

    Will you ever play it is the best question here.

    You and your huge collection of unplayed games.

    It's all true, I can't deny anything.

    It was the last game I played on the 360. And it was more than one year ago
