So I've gone through the first two levels of the game and I have to say that everyone on this site should play this game. We all love the 3rd person viewpoint and plenty of blood (ahem...Gears). So this game really isnt that far removed from what we all come to this site to talk about.
Anyway the real reason you should play this game is the sound. I know it's not a reason you usually pick up a game, but this game is seriously the poster child of sound design. It is truly atmospheric and really brings you into the game in a way I haven't had since Bioshock. The first time you step into an area with no air or gavity you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.
Now I have a great surround system going so I'm sure that helps, but I really think everyone should experience this.
Anyway I just had to stop playing for a moment to spout that off.
