UPDATED IMPRESSIONS
I just stopped after the fat guy gave me the GREEN security pass for the stadium area.
OH MY GOD.
The city keeps getting bigger and bigger. It's insane...and the quest for the 3 artifacts for that parrot (he's hilarious btw..."My name...is Pecker"

) was a lot of fun...the falling rocks part was genious.
The game keeps impressing me, even though I have a couple other AAA games on the go (SSX3, Tiger Woods)...simply stunning.
If I had to give the game an early score, it would be in the 9.2-9.5 range...and I don't hand out great scores like that very often.
