    Could you please upload images as thumbnails next time so they don't take up the entire page?

    I'd advise updating your drivers. The latest Catalyst Mobility 6.6 work with the X1400.

    did only you get the problem? Maybe this is a game problem and they will fix it soon with a patch.
    Btw, the game look nice, but not as nice as the PS2 version :)

    Images look fine to me. I'm not sure what the problem is. Game looks really good.

    I found the solution, changing the resolution during gameplay will cause a texture problem, just restart the game and play without changing the resolution. :)

    Whoa, they finally released it? I was waiting for the PS2 version but they never released it in the UK...

    Gonna have to buy it, absolutely love DMC3. Hopefully I can run it at native resolution at 60FPS, would look incredible...

    That would make sense; it probably is not rendering or loading the textures correctly in the new resolution.

    Its either the resolution probelm posted above. Or it could be graphics core artifacts.

    Actually no, I have a X1400 256MB and sometimes the fps really becomes really low, I tried changing resolutions but it seems there is no affect on the fps, there is just something wrong with game! I also tried running it on a Geforce 6600 256MB; it has bit higher fps (like a +5) but still considered low for a PS2 game coming to the PC. Also as u can see the texture r rough and the game has almost no good effects, its just like the gamplay and texture thats it... more over the controles r really bad, I actually did not like it; the PS2 version was a lot better

    Way to go Capcom, sounds like a terrible port. I do have a PS2 to PC converter so hopefully controls won't be a problem.

    I'm also reading about people with high end cards getting terrible frame rate drops, might have to import the PS2 version or something.
