The graphics, as you know, are amazing and the A.I is revolutionary. If you've got a decent card in your PC, play it on High or VERY HIGH with AA on X4. If you can run it like that, you're in for a treat. Turn the sound up, too. It gets a little spooky in places - nice.
I wouldn't recommend playing it on Easy, because, while not a total walkover, it won't show off the AI and last as long as on Med or Hard. Also, have a look at The Project (Downloadable video-clip - available from www.gamershell.com) Probably Far Cry 2? From Crytek, anyway - so it's safe to say that it's the sort of quality they'll be putting into their next game.
It's the only game the gf has went "ooooooooooo" at, but she's a holiday junkie.
