    They are saying that they are doing stuff that is new for them, not the entire genre . And from what I've seen so far I'd have to agree. There are many elements they are showing that they have never done before: different types of ammo for various weapons, creatable items, a fleshed out driving element, and a more open environment, just to name a few.
    
    As for the consoles, looking that good AND getting a smooth 60fps is pretty impressive. Also, as I understand it, the Tech 5 engine was designed to be much more easily upgraded or modular, similar to what Valve has done with the Source engine, as others have stated.
