This game will blow your mind. One caution though, if you are purchasing it as a gift for a younger family member, set it up for them and read the cautionary statement. Some of the levels are disturbing and not suited for younger players, hence the mature rating. Overall though this is one of the most exciting FPS games I have ever played. The tone is grittier and the AI will make you regret hasty decisions.The weapons selection is good, and unlike some other games, cover is paramount. I would not be surprised if this game becomes game of the year.
What's great about it: Brings a new level of realism to the genre.
