I've seen a few, but Lakrits looks boring to me so our tastes obviously differ.
Windows 7 is overall faster than XP, so long as you're running it on a computer that has the Windows 7 recommended hardware specs or better.

If any of you ever decide to upgrade an XP system to 7, make sure you have at least a dual core processor. I upgraded my old XP 32bit to 7 32bit and the poor old 3.2 GHz single core couldn't even keep up with playing ME2(So any UT3 engine games), even with a decent video card and 2 gb RAM. I guess the jump from DX9 to DX10/11 relies a lot on processing power.
My old Pentium 4 630 3.6 Ghz HT runs windows 7 just as well as this laptop I'm using. Although, I have to keep games set to DX9 on it instead of DX11.
Yeah, just run games in DX9 mode when using 7 on an older system. I don't know why you were having issues Delta. My old rig with a single core AMD 64 2.0GHz ran shit just fine, even maxed out UT3.
I looked into running stuff in DX9. For ME2 specifically, I researched there was was a value to change in a .ini file for DX9/10. But further research showed that ME2 ran in DX9 no matter what OS you're running. I had a drastic drop in FPS, most notably around a large number of NPCs, say on the bridge of the Normandy. It doesn't matter, it still happened to me, so do it at your own risk. That rig is no longer my primary anyway.
Just got my new PC up and running and picked up another copy for, well, the PC. Game runs beautifully, kinda hard to get used to a mouse and keyboard again, and I have to rank up and gather my unlocks again; but hey I'm ready to play any time. So put me on the list for PC as well.
Name: Recon V17
Platform: PC/360
Time Zone: GMT-8
BC2 is $6.79 on STEAM TODAY only. Buy it and join our Platoon!
And of cores I buy it the day before the sale, at the regular retail price. That's about $13.00 I could of saved =/
Done. GMT -5.
How much more of an investment will it take to catch up in terms of post-release maps and unlocks?
