Bought. Will try that Complete mod as well - looks very impressive. I still can't find any min specs though. I'm assuming it will be ok with a GTX 460.

games great but GFWL is the worst thing on this planet for gaming . i dont buy games that use gfwl anymore after some of the bs ive had with the stupid system.

Please quantify that statement with facts that prove GfWL is "the worst thing on this planet for gaming" that don't include your personal, biased opinions or problems caused by your own stupidity or machine problems

Download speed on GFWL is a bit poo though.

Limited activations and no revoke tool to get them back, for a start.

EA Store has limited activations but it is up front about it and gives you a revoke tool for each game affected. Steam has no activation limits (with a small number of exceptions).

However, for prices like 75p I realise most will probably be happy to overlook that issue (including me).

By the way, if anyone is running the GFWL client on XP you will need the dot net framework 4.0, despite MS saying 3.5 is enough, because otherwise you will experience crashing / BSODs due to a memory leak.

Where did you find the minimum specs ? I can't seem to find them anywhere.

I found them somewhere on the official site I think, but it is also given here:

WRONG LINK ABOVE!

Thanks, but I think that is Call of Pripyat specs. It was the min specs for the Complete mod that I was after.

Thanks - yes that was what I was after. Looks like I'll be ok to run the mod, which looks great by the way.

Nice one, just purchased and currently downloading.

WoW, this is a cracking game for a few pence especially with the mod, its like Metro 2033, but not underground, well not yet?
