Looking equal to or better than the stunning Xbox 360 version (depending on yourhardware), GRAW supports real-life goodies like the new Ageia PhysX card, for outrageously detailed modeling of objects as they fly apart from explosions. If you didn't drop $300 for a PhysX card, don't worry. Standard modeling of physical objects in GRAW borders on the insane. Is your enemy crouching behind a car? Blast out the tires, dropping the car six inches, exposing his head. Blam - no more bad guy.

Deliberate pacing includes long and dramatic quiethunks as you sneak from cover to concealment towards your objectives. The action comes in large doses, mainly because enemy soldiers will react to hostilities and combine forces against you, effectively siphoning an entire zone of patrols when you decide to poke your head into the hornet’s nest and make trouble.
