Magazine article:

- No more sneaking around in the shadows. Apparently you're going to be more 
like James Bond and infiltrate buildings in plain daylight. You won't have 
to use force or sneak around as long as you don't act suspiciously.

- According to the article, every single object that is rendered on screen 
has physical properties and most of them can be used by Sam. For example, 
Sam can pick up furniture and use it as a weapon, or throw printers at 
enemies or papers in the face of enemies to gain the upperhand in fights.

- Melee fights are much more than "press this button to hit" this time 
around. There's different context sensitive attack buttons and as mentioned 
before lots of environmental interaction.

- Some pretty negative comments about the ps3 made by the devs. They state 
the fact that they are exclusive to the 360 allows them to do much more than 
if they were multiplatform (duh) but they also state they doubt they would 
be able to achieve what they're doing with the game on the 360 on the ps3 
even if it was ps3 exclusive.

The lead programmer told the magazine he doubts they would have been able to 
pull of the lightning effects they have right now on the ps3. That's the 
only thing they say straight out, but they do state they believe they're 
much better off on the 360.
