Giants Demo

and my first pot drought (sp?) continues

Honestly, I only downloaded the Giants: Citizen Kabuto Demo just to see how back the game would suck on my voodoo3 card. However I was surprised. It ran smooth and looked great. I was starting to get hooked. I was almost finished the first mission when I decided that "yes I'm going to buy this game" then just as a finished the mission the game locked up. Hmmm.. Rebooted my computer, used end all to get rid of any nasty tsrs, and replayed it. Once again, looked great, ran great and once again it locked up just as I got to the cut scene where I delivered the meat. I did this three more times. If it had an in game save, I could try to work with it just before the crash but it takes 15 minutes to play the mission. *sigh* Guess I will not be picking up that game.
My system: amd 850, 128 megs of ram, voodoo3 pci, and sound blaster live.

My GF calls me giant :-)

Just had a thought about 'Halo'...

What type of server scheme will it run? If the games are based around an individual X-box owner setting up 'da box' as a server, and then the game abruptly ends when the host gets tired of the game and turns off his box... or the 'host' parents find little Johny up at 3am and pull the plug... there might be a lot of pissed off players.

*Hats off to the ppl who run dedicated game servers on the net for the games I luv < :)

Seems to me Halo will have to be run around dedicated PC servers. Unless Bungie *cough.. M$.. cough* wants to foot the bill for a LOT of expessive bandwidth.

Giants runs great on my 2 sets [Ath 700. 256 mb, GF2 MX and Tbird 1,1ghz, 256 mb, GF2 Ultra]. No problem whatsoever. Ok, so the mx stutters a bit sometimes on the big landscapes. Sue me. :)

Ok. say i only have enough money to buy one game, and it's either going to be Sacrifice or Giants. which one should i choose?

Fun as Hell man,

Tried hitting Kabuto in his groins in multiplayer LOL.
That roar (3 types) of kabuto and use the special camera angel. Shweet!

Multiplayer i had no probs and its fun as hell. not competetive tho, DOH.
Get this game, its 90% worth it i think.

damn this things fun... might have to pick it up now.

Damn ease one could you like spam even more. Take some ritalin retard

6KB/sec, this will be fun....

Giants was probably the funnest [singleplayer] game I bought last year. I loved every minute of it. The graphics were amazing, and the gameplay was fresh and in your face and new. Did I mention the mindblowing graphics? A more beautiful game you will not find (if you've got the hardware to run it).

I would recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone who loves games and isnt a fps whore.

thanks it seems I can get it off of there

www.3dfiles.com as usual.... you guys should stop their for you 3d downloads!

Is anyone else having problems getting this download to connect??!?? Mirror?

I'm still not getting shit

bah!

This game really rocks, but those freakin' Reaperski races are hard as hell when your framerate is like 10 FPS

More importantly, this demo will allow me to see if my computer will run the game as slow as has been prophesized.

not first, yea!!
