Gothic 3 .. almost here!

1.6 is out.

New memory system.


Came out on the 7th and the game is still crash-o-licious. I did a clean reinstall and patched and I can't play more than 5 minutes without it CTDing. F'n ridiculous.

UT3's shoddy widescreen in Gamespot 8.5 review



Problem is, it was the Bioshock developers who said Bioshock was implemented as intended, and to perfection...

I'll continue to vote with my wallet...


Ken Levine also said they'd put out a patch to address the issue. How many months ago was that?

rainbow 6 vegas

I can't even get the game to install. It gets about 3/4th done and craps out with a memory error in the setup.exe. Tried copying the disc to the hard drive, tried doing it in safe mode, nothing works.

GRAW 2 Demo with and without PhysX ...

I didn't know GRAW 2 was supporting the PhysX cards. Hmmm, tempted to go look at their current prices.

Lord of the Rings Online

I've got a level 24 hobbit hunter on Nimrodel and I love the game. Best MMO I've ever played. And, yes, the graphics are gorgeous.

Neverwinter nights 2

Around 20fps. Sometimes a bit lower, sometimes a bit higher. Sounds horribly low, and it is, but as much as I lay on the space bar to pause and issue orders (since the NPC AI is so lovely) the low frame rate really doesn't bother me that much.

Enabling AA didn't seem to hit performance much at ...

Neverwinter nights 2

Been playing the game all day with the 1.03 beta patch. With shadows on medium I can play the game at 1920x1200 with 4x AA on my 2405. Got a 3007WFP on its way, so it'll be interesting to see how my 1950 XTX chokes all over most games at 2560x1600.

Splinter Cell Double Agent Specs.

Double Agent will support Intel's quad core. At least according to Intel.

You'd think with it being a X360 game there'd be WS support.

I'm not seeing that at all. I just fired up the tutorial again and the pause menu button in the upper left hand corner is right there. Same with other elements of the interface. Haven't tried the advanced movie maker yet.

I found those reg keys too and changed them to 1680x1050 and then fired up the game and brought up my 2405's OSD, which reported the current resolution as 1680x1050 (game's menu option still reported it at 16x1200, its highest option). Seems to work, no visible stretching.

Edit: If, however ...

I'm at work and that site is blocked (tried it before posting). Does it specify WS support?

Has anyone tried this yet and checked for WS support? Just curious since my birthday is this weekend and I'm undecided as to what to tell the wife to get me: Quake 4 or The Movies.
