    The demo ran pretty good for me. Same stats only I have a smaller/faster hard drive (7200 at 80gb).

    I ran it at 1280x800 res. default med settings. looked pretty good. didn't bother tweaking it, probably could have had a mix of med/high. It was pretty stable (no meter, but my guess around solid 30-40FPS), only hiccuped when your pod blows up.

    It was fun but no widescreen mode means no buy for me.

    If you want, try these settings:

    But it is true widscreen, or does it strech/cut off your viewing area.
