Looks great, but I honestly don\'t know what to expect for real world gameplay...

Expect something similar to Far Cry, I\'d say. The jungle scene make it move a little... I had to stand up.

It was borderline console style saving. I liked it though.

I beat the game on Hard, and only one or two sequences gave me any major trouble and/or bad savepoints, and they were near the end.

looks awesome.

My brother has the first one but i never played it..decided to install it after watching this movie. Decent game but the floor is black most of the time which kind of sucks. My drivers are updated and i patched the game but i still got it.

Did you enable hdr? if so, make sure you turn off the AA.

I got pretty far in the first one, but reached a point I couldn\'t pass.  The part with 2 helicopters where like 10 guys repel down then proceed to beat my ass.  I saved with half of my life and almost no ammo.  

I might use the "GOD" mode just to get past it, but I really didn\'t wanna have to do that :(

I refuse to support any game that will allow you save in a bad situation and punish you for it. Anytime you save, you should restart with at least full health. Better yet, save points should be automatic and fill your health back up. This punish the gamer by insane save situations is gettin\' old, infact, I still remember havin\' to restart in Resident Evil: Code Veronica, because I had used all of a certain ammo and couldn\'t knock the Tyrant off the fuckin\' airplane.
