I think if you take into account the fact that this game is open world, i honestly think this is one of if not the best looking game i have ever seen yet. It looks as good as Crysis 3 on PC and that is linear as you can get.
The only thing i don't like about the graphics is the hud which looks cheap and like graffiti or something (maybe thats the point). I like the hud in the older games like the electric energy thing that you upgraded over time, it looks cheap in this game. I also don't like the 3D map although i can't remember if it was like that in the older games.
Also are there blast shards in this?, i liked collecting them in the older games.
