This game really brings my x1900xtx to its limits. What's the temperature range for that card again? After I got a couple of freezes I checked the temp and it was close to 100 Celsius.

hmmm i was expecting something a bit more "nextgen" in terms of visuals.... they picked a VERY bad level indeed to show off the engine, horrible.

Damn. Sky looks like a big flashbang went off (secret agents are always more effective when they have to squint to see anything), and it seems that PS 3.0 is required because it just wouldn't be performance-efficient to give EVERYTHING a heat haze or blur with PS 2.0. That's realism these days, y'know.

I had strange performance issues on my AMD dual core CPU. Downloading the AMD dual core optimizer from http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/utilities/Setup.exe resolved the issue however.

That aside I didn't have any problems with it, and I enjoy it, even if I thought I had had enough Splinter Cell after SC:CT.
