Um, you can't really give an A to a DR that has weird screenies and no details on cut-scenes... The centered multi-mon HUD is another issue; is this some Eyefinity-only oddity again ?
Anyway, I've uploaded a bunch of screenies, and although I didn't touch them I do think the main gameplay shots should be replaced.

Can you do clean copies of the main gameplay screens?

Nvidia drivers 285.62 finally fixed DX11 mode for me, and it appears the multi-mon HUD is spanned in DX9 but centered in DX11... (The performance boost is such that I'm starting to think this is a DX11 game with DX9 mode, rather than the opposite.) The intro FMV is also unstretched in DX11. Widescreen support is unchanged.

There are significant issues with graphical glitches, sadly not limited to Radeon users. I have MASSIVE in-game stuttering rendering the game unplayable and am returning it after two days of trying to make it work. Yes, i did a clean install of all new drivers and I tried all the other tricks I could find to make it work. It is a well recognised issue that I only wish I know about before purchasing the game. If anyone is interested I can PM you a link to a youtube vid of the stuttering taking place (interestingly the in-game recording smooths out the stuttering so I had to use my phone to make the recording, hence the less than average quality).
