But all this nonsence about the frame rate ..... 30 FPS is the Same as RED faction AFTER ALL , and even though i have not played it from what i have Heard it only gets in the way of the game play now and then.


If you still want to bash this game so be it but atleast give it a chance......



Remember you DON\'T HAVE TO BUY IT YOU KNOW !

so why BASH IT !

Leavethat for the Army Men Games ! lol.


From what I have heard is the Red Faction is suffering from frame rate drop-off (ie: sub-30fps moments, once you get below 20fps things get pretty bad).

Hmmmmm i play a lot of Team Fortress with a 56k modem and i am used to lag, so this fream rate problem will just seam as if i am playing online on my PC.....lol

God i hate 56k modems i wish i had Cable or ADSL !

i dont think those modem accelerators work.... do you hav 2 lines 1 for homecalls and one for faxes?
im getting rid of one phone line and my dailup and getting a dsl which does all of that for $4 american more...
i wouldnt trust modem accelerators...
wait. i just remembered.. if you want satelite tv, with a broadband conn. to the net... you can get it. and you can send stuff to the net fast too... now if i only could find it... its in the latest popular science magazine.. like $200 for sat. tv and internet..(broadband..)
go pick up the latest issue of pop sci... it should have it in the "whats new" section.

p.s bad ping is caused usually by overloaded servers...
(there are many in the "zone" gaming service by MICROSOFT)
no flame intended.:D
IM BACK. you have a problem with that? get in the back.

FYI: That mean FOR YOUR INFORMATION.


I don\'t know where u get this misinformation that I don\'t like ps2 or something. Because I have had my ps2 since October 2000. So umm I see you drawing conclusions. Second I don\'t advocate xbox or ps2. I see them both as strong console. And I point out pointless xbox trash. Just like I would wOULD point out ps2 trash.

Then there is you. Who clearly bye your comments like ps2 far too much.  TOO the brink of fanboyism

Have you ever played a version of Tekken3 on PAL and then on NTSC?...there is one hell of a difference in the frame rate.  Anyone who not understand the difference in frame rate should take this a good example.

Also check out the difference between TTT and DOA2.  The frame rate is the only reason that I did not buy TTT and bought DOA2 instead.
A word of advice:

In the working world there is only two ships that sink: 1.) a Battle ship, and 2.) Partnership
