For their time-era, Kingdom Hearts had pretty good graphics. So did some of the cut-scenes in Final Fantasy 7, however that was Playstation 1. Obviously compared to today's graphics, they aren't even close. But, for their time-era, games like those had award winning graphics.
Game looks great. Going to go play Sniper Ghost Warrior to get ready ;)

So... like uber-quad-month-bump here, but the game came out a few days back now (May 1st) and I've since got my hands on it.
It's every bit as awesome as the trailer would have you think, and compensating for wind/bullet drop etc. can be quite challenging, especially on the higher difficulty settings (you can customise how hard certain aspects of the game are). The whole killcam thing is really neat, and it's very rewarding seeing an enemy sniper take a bullet directly through their eye socket and out the other end of their skull.
So far I've only played the first two missions (essentially the demo's levels from what I've heard) and it's been fun so far, although I felt somewhat cheated when I didn't get killed quite as fast as I had expected upon being jumped by some goons in a cafe and was able to blast them away with some spray-and-pray from the thompson. I suppose this wouldn't happen on the highest difficulties though, so I'm content with that.
Oh, and if you CoD players out there are wondering if you can quick-scope, it's entirely possible, just don't expect to hit anything if you've been running about and your guy's heart beat is going too fast and putting off his aim. You'll need to compensate for bullet drop and stuff too, all within that split second of aiming :P

Quickscoping when inside buildings is so much better than any pistol/automatic action. You can 1shot almost anything with it so if you have one or two guys climbing down the sniper stairs towards you, you can take them both down with the same click without doing more than looking at their general direction

I'll be playing this next weekend. I have finished the demo on Sniper Elite difficulty without much issues, but the AI looked a bit bugged regarding spotting and it felt quite fast paced for a sniper game. But, that was just the demo after all.
Any first impressions from somebody who plays this at Sniper Elite difficulty?
