From what I see the graphics look less that what I was hoping for. If you look closely there apears to be some bad fogging going on in several of these screen shots... you can see this in the sever color loss of trees not all that far in the background. Also, the environments themselves look kinda bad. Not the terrain or the buildings but the shot that has a street with a lamp... it all looks pretty blocky. I dunno, I'm pretty spoiled by Farcry with its lush environment and huge view distance. And for those of you who think farcry looks cartoony, just remember that that is all art direction, an engine doesn't have to use bright textures.
Anyway, I just hope its fun to play. I can still live with Ghost Recons graphics and they main thing I'm hoping is fixed is realistic shot detection and improved ai all around. I'm hoping the physics engine helps but in many games that use the same physics engine it sometimes is slightly annoying... such as in Farcry when getting blown up by a rocket, launches you a couple hundred feet in the air. However, seeing somebody knowcked off their boat by a well placed sniper shot is darn fun. I just hope Ghost Recon 2 can be fun and realistic, as I thin realism brings fun.
