>>The damage model is interesting, but ultimately disappointing IMHO. Hitting a bad guy in the head does more damage than hitting them in other areas. The problem is in the balance between the areas. One head shot kills, but you need 6 or 7 chest shots to kill - doesn't feel right to me. <<

Chip, after doing my daily newsgroup reading, it is my understanding it takes so many chest shots because the bad guys are wearing bullet-proof-vests.

Source is some guy called Kardde on comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.action: "Finally, a game where regular people are in regular places, where a
bullet to the head kills faster than a bullet in a level 3A vest,"

In any case, it appears SiN is getting a lot of attention on the newsgroups and creating ever more interest in Voodoo II cards. I'll be downloading it tonight. (for purely research reasons only...) <G>
