    I fail to see why you HAVE to install that physics crap, then it even SAYS "GRAW cannot detect any physics cards, please check that it is seated properly and there is power connected to it".

    It's great using a mouse and keyboard, but it doesn't look as good as the 360 version.

    Just wondering - i have never got into the tactical shooter genre, I've usually been into the singleplayer, narrative FPS, so i wanted to ask how much time do you actually have to put into the planning of a mission before playing.

    Dont shoot me for being ignorant, but it looks great, but it would be nice if i didnt have to spend ages planning out waypoints and stuff.

    I din plan much, I plan when I'm actually IN the game.. just be smart on your decisions and dun be a total rambo. It'll take much longer to finish a mission than say an arcade shooter, but the satisfaction is far greater than winning say in Quake 4.

    its not bad actually. AA doesnt seem to work though which makes it look UGLY! Doubt id buy it unless i seen it cheap.

    No AA for me either, but its packed full of HDR so that may be why.... Didnt really enjoy it that much, was ok but think I'll buy when its cheap, or whenever Oblivion lets go of me, what ever is sooner...

    What we share with everyone is glum, and dark...

    Maybe the next ATI drivers will fix the AA, although the 6.4's were supoposed to fix the issue of having AA on as well as HDR.

    Hmmm, some performance issues on my 6800GS. The new 84.43s helped a tonne tho.

    Seems nice, intuative, seems to have all the bits missing from the original GR (like a visible firearm!) I do like the method of controlling your troops with the mouse scroll wheel , although they do seem to get wiped out quite quickly..

    Anyone figured out how to switch between squad members? I'm itching to try the sniper rifle
