    Lolers...photoshop filters beware!

    Love grid though, didn't know you can get Puma to sponsor you. That's awesome.

    Oh my God! This game has awesome graphics! I never really tried it out.
    Imagine how Crysis 2 will look like! Probably the same but there will be improvements for sure!

    Have you recorded with FRAPS? I see bad performance there in Far Cry 2.

    Well playing without Fraps, it looks brilliant. Given when I have a program running alongside Far Cry 2, they both take up more resources, so now my pretty game can't really be that pretty.

    I guess I have to drop my resolution and some settings down :(

    edit: performance wise you mean FPS right?

    Well Far Cry 2 is quite demanding on Ultra high settings, are you running DX10 or DX9 version of the game? Drivers can have a huge. But impact too. But if you have Fraps running and recording that is the culprit.

    Yes best is with racing wheel. However I play with keyboard and it works flawless. Maybe because I am used to playing with keyboard. Glad you liked the screens by the way Vinyard

    That's some great Batman pictures you got there Darkness62. I will also upload some pictures of Batman: Arkham Asylum but I play it on PS3 and the quality wont be good if I use a camera. I also liked the flight simulator that spradhan01 uploaded :D What is the game called?

    i was out by the ships and when i saw the shark i swam fast to the shore. the shark took off on the other direction and got on the sandbar which cause it to glitch. it was going around in a circle on the island when i caught back up with it lol
