Runs fine on my 320mb card. Have to have textures on medium, though. Shaders, Post-Processing and Objects are on high and the framerates are decent enough.

Yeah same here. I just want every setting on high or higher

Damn you Fista.
Tisk tisk. If you havent got a dx10 card, fista uses its weird fake dx9 thing, which sucks. If you do have a dx10 card, it needs moar power for making it super shiny, even though it's super shiny anyway. It's just slower on fista. They probably optimised the fista parts less, knowing most gamers are still on xp.
just had a go on it and to be honest, i wasn't dissapointed. because i got what i and everyone else was expecting. what i was expecting was something pretty (i have to play it on low and it still looks pretty good) but nothing much to it. what i wasn't really expecting was that it's just far cry made prettier. i had an enormous feeling of deja-vu when playing it, and the new functions just don't change anything to the samey experience. i didn't feel free at any given time, i couldn't even swim to the boats if i wanted to. offcourse, when you play on higher settings it could make a huge difference. i don't get the moving planty bits and other speshul things. a good-looking tech demo, and that's it. but that's just my opinion. with a game like this, only chicken's opinion counts.

Er, that's funny. I was also expecting something pretty with nothing much to it, except instead I got MAXIMUM AWESOME. I didn't like Far Cry at all, but I like this.

HARD.
Where 'HARD' applies to the bumming and to show my agreement.
Did anyone else cringe at the intro sequence? A cockney called "Psycho" and a "Directed" credit. This is supposed to be a game not some lame action movie. This may have been the first impression that inspired my hatred of the game before it even started.

HARD.
