Umm... that may bring a Playstation2 on its knees, but no recent computer build.

I got a 5196. It looks like its in low res, probably 640x480, as thats what TV is. And wtf are those things? They have bunny ears and look like little bears.

I can't believe I sat through that.

Scored a 5300, but what an eye sore. It looks like graphics from an old Nintendo64.

I'll never run that thing again.

I think this "benchmark" would be more meaningful if it actually posted average framerates instead of meaningless 3DMark-esque numbers. Also I wonder whether this game is another worthless and unoptimised console port which is why it runs so slow.

No big deal . . . Microsoft has been writing code like that for years.

I can't believe I sat through that.

I find it hard to believe this thing is real for the following reasons:

It plays music from ZELDA in the background. It's the music from the main menu. I loaded up the zelda rom to be sure and that's what it is. I half expected to push start and get the cool zelda overworld music.

It looks like it could run on a PS1.

Bring a fast system to its knees? What do you consider fast? A 486? I must've been pulling some 300 fps in that POS. It looks like crap. I've never seen so much popup in my life.

3700..

That really does make me wonder, what do they think will bring a system to its knees....

edit: Then again, if the res. was raised to the 1280x1024 range our scores would drop a bit also...

I really hate to bust your balls Pink0, but you are neither a Zelda nor a Final Fantasy fan and it's brutally clear. That music is definitely from Final Fantasy and definitely NOT from Zelda, trust me! I remember listening to that music on Final Fantasy more than I care to say and I've logged easily several hundred to a few thousand or more hours on both Zelda games and Final Fantasy games over the years. You my friend are sadly mistaken.
