Thanks, I love this game, but haven't played it since I got my widescreen.
Also, you've just reminded me that I've been waiting for a copy of painkiller black that I ordered about 10 months ago!!! ...Forgot all about it! :? |

| With as big a money spinner as the Tomb Raider series, are you really surprised...? ;) Not so much surprised, but I'm actually very very disappointed. Publishers have resisted the urge to do this (afaik) for a very long time, they might run the game on unrealistic hardware, but every game I've boug... |

| This reminds me of the old sinclair spectrum and C64 days of lying screenshots. |

isn't it a very bad idea releasing a demo with all the nice graphics disabled?
goes against the whole purpose of a "demo" imo.
if I hadn't read this thread, I would have just presumed that the PC version's graphics sucked. |

I don't mind the tits, but I hate laras's voice-overs - all games have stupid sounding voices, but...

| Yes, this does look potentially good, I'm very much hoping for Lara's return to form. Loved the first game - the small amount of time I spent on the rest bored me shitless. I hope this game has that grand sense of exploration of the first game. it was archaelogical heaven, a game that lived up to th... |

| hmmm, that sonds a little pricey to me though. I know nothing about the specifications of these cards, but when I first heard about them, I understood they would basically be another dedicated processor (a PPU I suppose). Early (general user) graphics cards were never this much - once the PhysX tech... |

| You should be ok if you get rid of AA, keep the other settings as high as you can. AA is a MASSIVE strain at high resolutions and not worth the effort imo. In fact, personally I wouldn't sacrifice just 5-10 fps for it let alone the 30-50 fps I seem to loose between 0xAA - 4xAA. Just my opinion. |

| I'd call this a perfect example of doing widescreen wrong. I don't knw what you guys are seeing, it keeps the same FOV as 4:3, but you lose the top and bottem. You're seeing less of the world, you're better off with 4:3, rather than that badly implemented widescreen. Are you sure about that? Which ... |

| I think that guild wars is spot on what the widescreen solution should be. - Cropping the top and bottom is obviously bad. - Adding too much to the horizontal FOV, is a little unnatural* - A perfect balance between the two, is just right. *This is something I've just started thinking about based on ... |
