It goes without saying that the most drop dead gorgeous graphics can't carry a game in the end. A good game must be good from the inside out.

I'll have to respectfully disagree...no where NEAR the quality of HL2, which is a given anyway considering the technology in the Source Engine, and Farcry has such an unbelievably immersive outdoor world...unless you've played it its hard to convey how incredible it is to explore.

But with combat? I was hoping to get a large bit of my last uber-post addressed as I talk about combat and the like. Either way I agree...
