Scrotums. Incompatible sound card.

I have a Creative SoundBlaster Shit, which isn't good enough. Think I have a SBLive in a box at work - so at least my office will be a little quieter.

Assuming that's even good enough, my mate has an Audigy he hasn't needed since he got an Extigy...

Weird. UN-installed SB drivers from control panel, and game now runs.

I'm not finding it scary, but it's fucking awesome. Those armor guys are incredibly tough. I unloaded about 15 rockets into one before he went down...

I ran out of rockets for the next one :cry:

I feel I get more out of it if I allow myself to be scared by it. I find the awesomeness somewhat offset by the jerkiness at times, though most games (except FarCry) run more smoothly in multiplayer - I'll try it out and let people know how it performs on my inadeqate system.
