I want this for every game

Does look like a great game. I wonder how big the levels are as I think you'd get through them pretty quickly at that speed.

[ike44]

it looks like a very different but excellent game nontheless. when i saw this game for the first time (like a year ago) it looked like there would be no combat. but a year later there is combat! the game visually looks great and offers tons of fast paced gameplay. i cant wait!!!! t is SUPPOSED to be coming out on november 11. but ea is making it so anything could happen. the best part- it comes out on pc, 360, and ps3
