dunno if anyone has done a thread on this game other than the install size so thought id get the ball rolling for the pc game.

right, i think this game is using the unreal engine 3, if so its shocking to say the least, its running far faster than bioshock does:
pc im running the game on is a [email protected], 2gb ram, x1950pro 512mb.
im running it at 1360x768, max ingame details, although there are only 3 options ingame to turn on, dynamic shadows, decals and rez options.
wisescreen rez is supported native.

have to say this game is very good. damn good action game for the pc.

couple of questions, im fiddling around in the config file and came across this line:

bAllowMatureLanguage=FALSE

if i set the above to true does it enable swearing or something?

also AA does not seem to work in this game, tried forcing it in control panel but it does not get applied in the game. makes me believe more that its probably running on unreal engine 3.
 
ahh, im not running the demo since i bought the full game insted, since i heard there were bugs in the demo but was told they would be sorted out in the retail game.
loving this game, its not even dropping below 60fps in heavy fire fights. storyline is interesting too.
 
Yeah its not a bad game, nice GFX and plenty of action, nice to see it running so well on your setup, makes a change from some of the other sloppy efforts from other developers.
 
yea, if this is a port its probably the best one todate, deffo worth playing with for a few laughs. plenty of action to keep visitors happy.
 
the 7600gs was replaced by the x1950pro, but from the way the game is running which is over 90fps id say the 7600gs will easily run this game, and there is an option in the game to turn off dynamic shadows. im running with dynamic shadows turned on and the speed i get is shocking, very fast indeed. with dynamic shadows off i rekon even 6600 users will get to play this game quite well.
 
Played this on my bros 360 and he was bragging about how a pc would never be able to cope with it.

Downloading the demo.....:D

good shocking pal, it runs great, and tons of action. i still can;t get over how well its performing. hope others licence this "wooengine3" :D
i could swear its unreal engine 3 though, there is something about the treacle like effects over stone objects that just reminds me of unreal engine 3 games.
