    There was major slowdowns throughout the whole game. Dont get me wrong, I owned both KOTOR games for the Xbox but the slowdowns where major. Something that stood out even more when I saw it on PC at HD with 4xAA/16xAF with what seemed to be 60fps (9600XT).

    Fortunately the gamplay mechanics and camera view made it bearable. It was also pretty with the huge scenes and multitude of enemies/characters etc. :smile:

    Some sort of hardcoded PCF path perhaps... at least I thought that was the original issue since it was awhile before ATI added that.

    Lets just say that ATI's OpenGL ICD in 2001/2 was not anywhere near what it is today. Still, I played the game on a Radeon 8500 and it was alright I seem to recall. Soft shadowing in that game is troublesome unless you have a NV card and even then it's rather demanding.

    Deus Ex 3 not exclusive to PC after all?

    I think some were hoping it was. I wasn't exactly holding my breath on that one though...

    I'm just hoping it's more Deus Ex 1 than Deus Ex 2, but not exactly getting my hopes up. It's probably going to be more trash.

    Regards,

    Hmm, found this artwork. Don't know if it's legit though.

    It's legit.... and Ooooold. But it is semi-obscure, I believe, so no worries.

    Awesome trailer!

    And it correlates with a feeling DeusEX (first one) left in me :grin:

    I like the look, but I really really don't think this is going to be the game that I want. The media for IW looked really nice before release, but then it came out...

    In-game shots

    Yup!
    Only if Vangelis would compose a decent score for the game to match the visual themes -- just imagine... :shock:

    I think I found something to look forward to. :) Visually, anyway.

    I'm not sure how much those shots have been blown up but the texturing looks kinda low-res. I'm sure it's designed for consoles with 512MB total RAM.

    The money is no longer with PC gaming. I seriously doubt it will be on the PC only.
