i'm only on the 2nd mission in the XBOX version, and it's some of the best graphics i've ever seen

It's quite smooth too, especially for an old card. (Radeon 8500)

Just remember - it might seem a little short on replay value but there's definetly a lot of things you can do (play it on Hard, make various challenges for yourself - going through every level and only killing/knocking out the target/people needed)

games like this just don't port well to keyboard controls, just like 1st person shooters don't usually port to well to a game pad.
Especially with all the sneaking and need of a pressure sensative moving device. you can't do thst with a keyboard.

Can't wait for this release! Anyone know if there is multiplayer of some sort? I think that'd be awesome..

Should I get it for Xbox or for PC? I'm going to buy it sometime in the near future. If you guys think the PC version is better, I'll wait till 1/21.

What are you talkinga about? I play the Xbox version.. I couldn't get used to the control whatsoever.. it's too complicated... M&K are much easier to use.

How long'd you play it? 2 minutes? Are all video games too complicated for you?

What type of video card ? Also, If you have a better setup for your tv then i would definately recommend that.

GF3 Ti500 64MB on 21" Trinitron monitor. The demo ran very well on my computer, so I know my system can handle it.

Much better on XBox.....no rumblez for j00 PC ownzorz.
And that's a loss? ;):p I find the "rumblez" on consoles absolutely annoying. It's wonderful that it's an option that can be toggled off on most Xbox games.

PC, unless you have a great home theatre setup.
