Take a few minutes to look at the screenshots and you will see what I mean. The amazing thing is that even with all that going on the framerate was smooth as glass even at 1024x768 32bit color. The combat can get quite hectic at times so the graphics engine has a lot to contend with and it does so admirably. Even though the game is touted as a 3rd person action adventure game, it can be played in 1st person. I found myself switching back and forth but eventually settling on 3rd person just for the situational awareness it provides.
Sound effects are solid and unique.
From the whine of the sniper rifle to the almost celebratory whistles of the Millennium Mortar the weapon sounds are different enough that you can tell what is going on around you with you eyes closed during combat. The voice over work is exceptional. The interface is damn near invisible. Floating at along the bottom is the weapon display. Your present weapon has a bracket around it and each weapon has its ammo displayed under its icon.
