Quote from the review :-

On our test machine - an Alienware system with an Athlon 3500+ processor and ATI's Radeon X800 video card - everything ran at full quality without trouble, and the visual experience was simply jaw-dropping.



Nice work if you can get it, bastards.

 

[The Monkey]

As expected. 10/10.

Non-gaming sources always talk out of their asses.

Oh my goodness! The game ran perfectly on your uber-machine? Color me ****ing surprised.

the game runs surprisingly well on computers that only just match the modest minimum specifications. But if ever there was an incentive to upgrade your PC's components, this is it.

Well done, Sarcazmo.

i still dont beleive he had zero stutter throughout the entire game

 

[lans]

I had zero stutter, zero bugs and zero problems throughout the game. I think the engine was excellently optimized.

Dunno why the rest had so much, but I even had a comfortable time unlocking it (without any problems).

 

[Ansur]

I'm about half-way through the game, without any bugs sofar. As lans, no problems with ubnlocking either. Guess I'm just lucky ? ;p
