Anyone else excited about that game. Is it already out in the US ?
All the previews seem to be very positive about it, and they say it could even turn out better than GTA3.
What I have seen so far is pretty impressive, the intro is already one of my favourite ones and the music is fantastic.







Too bad my comp could not handle it, in 2-3 months I´ll get a new one.

Maybe because it`s developed in the Czech Republic.
But look at ign or GameSpot, they have previews and stuff.

I bought the game today and I think it rocks, just not on my machine...
:rpissed:
Just like I thought it runs not very good with at least a few detail on. Aiming is hell with a 15 fps. Time to upgrade.

It`s a Gf1 DDR. What Gf2 do you have. If you only have a MX model then don`t bother buying.

I´ve played around with the settings and have improved the perfomance a bit.
Just like Morrowind this game runs better on my PC in higher res than in lower res. I guess in the higher res. the graphics card does more of the work while in low res. it`s the CPU.
It`s still not great ,but it`s playable now. But who knows in later missions there is maybe more happening on the screen...

I just wanted to test the game now and really start playing when I have my new PC, but I can`t stop now - the story is just too good.
