Well i've got a fairly decent computer and it plays most games i've thrown at it. This game runs real bad on my pc but i believe the term is micro-stutter. The same thing that happens to Fallout 3 and but its much worse in this game. What happens is that everytime you goto a new area, it loads the information on the fly and the game freezes while the data loads. Once i'm in a level, its fine throughout that area. For example, i'm near the start of the game, i had to find the Telekinesis plasmid. When i go through the Dandy Dentist door and it loads the level, the whole game stutters, drops down to near 10FPS (I have FRAPS running). Once its done, it goes right back around 45-50FPS. The whole dentist area then plays fine once it stops stuttering, when i goto leave the area, it loads the foyer section and the whole game stutters again.

From my experience with various games. Most console ports are usually terrible when ported to the PC, they have small levels and long loads. The load times aren't all that bad but its the stutter that gets me. It makes it worse because most of the time, whenever you open the door, a slicer attacks you and you're still trying to recover from the stuttering...
