Once they said "MOAB" I was fucking sold. Now I have to debate between PC version or PS3 version. Chances are I'll go with PC because this game looks highly modable (like most sandbox games).

btw they do make this seem a little less sandboxy then it really is just by showing 3 ways and m aking it sound like it's [i]onl/i] those 3 ways, but chances are it will feel less like that once we get our hands on it.

Another gripe I had are those quicktime event animations, they feel so lifeless, put some more fluid movement in there, otherwise everyone just looks and acts like a braindead idiot, I mean, the guy in the tank look like he barely even tried to get mr. protagonist off his ass.

Good lord, the gameplay looks like pure fun. We won't know for sure until we play the game for ourselves, but it really seems like Pandemic has already outdone the first game several times over in every aspect.

The vehicle controls looked really tight and fun, but the shooting bits didn't look to have the same feel to them. Stuff blew up real good.
Quick time events = sorry, no thanks.

I played the first one on an xbox demo and it was pretty fun. I looks awesome but only thing that bothers me is that some of the graphics look awesome but when he started to hijack the tank the graphics look quite bad. Oh well though, get to blow stuff up.

God - as long as they don't fuck up the controls and the MP... definitely looks to be more entertaining that GTA 4 - hopefully there's some variety, or unique game design so that it doesn't become a snooze fest after a week's worth of play time.
