Reflections and shadows don't look quite real when compared with the photos. Will be interesting to see what it looks like moving though.

Some of the stuff in game engines now just blows my mind. Played Battlefield 3 last night and was very impressed! The ambient occlusion really makes a difference to how it looks.  I had a nightmare getting it installed and running though. I'd read a lot of bad press about EA Origin, but figured it was just people moaning for the sake of moaning. Privacy concerns aside, getting it going was a pain. Had to install browser plugins and launch the game via a web browser! Crazy! Then it said I'd had too many unsuccessful passwords attempts and wouldn't let me in. Finally it tells me there's a problem with Origin stopping people logging and in properly...  Got it working after about 30 mins of updates and other annoyances though.
