I had rock-bottom expectations for Atomic Heart. I was confident I’d enjoy the game, but I’ve been burned by too many half-baked, stuttering, buggy PC ports over the past several years to put too much faith in an ambitious AAA title with next-gen tech from a first-time developer. It sounds like a recipe for disaster. But Atomic Heart not only defied my expectations, it blew them away. It’s not a perfect game, but it’s nearly a perfect tech demo. It comes packed with some of the best visuals you can find in a PC game…
