Nah, at least not from what I've heard about it, which isn't much.

You tried Oblivion and Prey? Not much to say for Prey beyond it's a good stress test. Oblivion on the other hand is a nearly perfect PC game, but I would guess you've played it already on one format or another?

aye have on 360 - tried the prey demo for 360 also (kind of sucked a little bit tbh)

F.E.A.R. and Oblivion kan still bring the most powerful PC to it's knees.

Age of Empires III looks pretty good to.

I've been playing Rise of Legends a while, but I can't say that I'm very impressed by the graphics or the gameplay. It's a decent enough RTS, but nothing special. I'm still on the Vinci campaign though, maybe the other ones will be more exciting.
