From the moment you step out of your US Army Jeep, the graphics amaze. Dust clouds billow, and buildings creak with the scars of battle, all beautifully rendered in the Frostbite 2.0 engine. Facial and skeletal animations are incredible and while unable to reach the levels of LA Noir, it still leaves an indelible impression on the player.
