Game Informer also made Red Steel and Kane and Lynch look damn good too...

Yeah but thats debatable. I knew Red Steel would be much of nothing. Kane and Lynch met my expectations for the most part. IO has great ideas for games just not the greatest programming or something. But here we got a game from a dev with a decent track record (or so I hear but do not personally know) a premise and idea that could be damn cool, and a mix of genres that I tend to like.

But right now way to early to say so. Just sounds interesting on paper.

The bad screens I can' t judge negatively being that its somewhat of an open world game with branching storylines and a dialogue system similar to Mass Effect. Honestly I just have a hard tim ehating on action RPGs, espeically since this is straying from the norm of fantasy sci fi in to spy thriller and international espionage.

You guys know that Game Informer is an advertisement/promotional item for GameStop, right?

Yes, only because subscribing to it gets you a discount/bonus on used games.

Game Informer is garbage. Any magazine that could rank Madden 04 as the number one game for 10 months deserves to die.
