Pc gaming isnt like console gaming, you dont need awards or achievements messages every now and then to make you feel like your progressing and going forward. Basically, what im trying to say, is thatawards cant prove the death of a platform, especially when these awarda are given by people who have no clue about what they are talking about.

What about compatibility? Is there any known issues when playing the BG games on XP, or on a dual core CPU?

There's a lot more entertaining things I can do for free then play daikatana.Citan76
Like tickling a walrus' tummy, for example.

Why Daikatana of all games for Christmas?! Why don't they give away something that needs a larger fanbase because it didn't sell so well like the PC versions of BGE or Psychonauts? Or maybe even Anachronox if it HAS to be from Ion Storm/Eidos!?

This game just won't go away.

Thanks, John.

Oh I'm not saying I'm not satisfied, just a little worried on why it doesn't run as fast as other comps.

Yeah, I think its the cpu, I have an E4400 and they are using Q6600.

there you go. Their Q6600 is probably OCed to like 3.0GHz.

I'm running vista 32bit all high, 1680X1050 8800GTX. I'm not sure if the GPU benchmark runs it DX9 or 10, so I'll just go by what it is.

The benchmark crashes for me after all of the loops, so I'll just say the number I got in the corner for AVG Fps.

22.35

The FPS was basically stable at around 20-25 fps most of the time. Does this seem normal to you guys? I saw some other benchies with a 8800GTX on the same resolution with like 27FPS, maybe its the fact that the GPU benchmark crashes after 3 loops?

I saw that on TweakTown the FPS for the 8800GTX OC2 was 37.6, maybe I can try and OC my gtx to match that.

Well it depends on your cpu and the one they used for their benchmarks.
