Just picked this game yesterday and have to say i agree, after a couple of hours im impressed (and somewhat relieved) by this game, it really does show case what the 360 can do. I play alot of first person shooters (Battlefield 2 (PC), Quake 4 (PC), Halo (XBOX) & Farcry (XBOX)) and i find the best titles are often the ones which are really immersive, BF2 has a alot of these "moments" when you realy feel involved. G.R.A.W's graphics really sell this even more so, one scene so far which was memorable was defending a positon and a VIP from a rebel assault, which included a tank and armored vechiles, hunkering behind a wall with bullets flying around, healing teamates who have fallen and instructing air support and then watching vehicles expolde all whilst shooting an endless stream of enemies.

I was worried the new xbox didnt seem to have a good game at launch which really was a "killer app" but by the looks of it this could be it.:thumbsup:

actually right now that the 360s are better than the average PC would prolly be a good port =P

3 core CPU for the win..

Actually, my major issue with 'porting' is the game interface. Console and PC games are designed with different interfaces in mind; usually reflecting the input mechanism (KB+Mouse vs controller). Console games also tend to gear more towards the instant gratification - i.e. get in and start playing immediately.
