I have heard that the gameplay is stale after the novelty of the graphics and all that wears off... And also that the cover system although cool, is very flawed. And that the story is pretty mediocre, and also there is little replay value save for multiplayer and online, and no extras.

I mean I've only played it for 15-30 minutes, and don't get me wrong, its a good game... But the way people are treating it and hyping it up so much, I just dont think its worthy of all the praise. I have reason to believe its just the fact that the graphics are so damn good that has made this so hyped..

I've heard it being called "the new halo." Which is pretty funny, since halo was kind of the same. A good game elevated to legendary status for some wierd reason, even though it was just a well-executed FPS, like so many others.
