    Thought I would just let anyone know who might be thinking bout this one how it runs.

    Plainly fantastic is how it runs I push everything on Highest with 1080P and without Vsync which the game seems to stick at 62FPS it goes way over 100FPS constantly and does not lag in the slightest.

    Not so fantastic is the game, I have played for a couple of hours and have to say the graphics are nothing special, it is clear the game should have been released in 2008 even with a few pieces of eye candy and pleasant scenary here and there its looks low res.

    People who love shooters will not be impressed with the bow work of your partner as it is a co-op game, it does not matter what part of the skeleton,bug,human you hit they die and crumble. The combat is very straightforward melee or bow - bow or melee - melee or bow and throughout the game you and your partner are bantering back and forth with tedious comments which are worse than Dragon Age 2's constant banter about who is getting in Isabella's knickers.

    The storyline and movies have been quite good and at least give some story to the poor gameplay, it just doesn't have anything that is new, exciting, special or has not been attemped before. If I could compare the game to anything its like Sacred 2 crossed with the camera angle and gameplay of Gothic 4 with a partner. I dont understand where the hell they have got 10GB from.

    It is full of bugs and problems online just does not work, the co-op thing is poor and you have no control over your partner he just runs off and dies and equipment wise for instance when looting you can pick up a ton of items at once even though you can not barely use any of the items for some obsurb reason if you pick the item up and its meant for your partner its useless?!! but you cannot multi loot gold you have to pick it up bit by bit.

    I could go on and on but when I saw the preview of this I got excited, even with Patches I will be drawing this one. Back to the Witcher 2 for me.

    Graphics: 6/10
    Story and movies: 7/10
    Combat: 4/10
    Gameplay: 6/10
    RePlayability: 3/10
    Worthy of the price: 2/10

    Overall ill give it 5/10 but only if you pick up from a £4.99 bargain bucket.
