Whoa, sweet. I was just at a place I coulda picked it up, but thought i'd read a review or two first. This thread, however, is good enough for me. The game shall be purchased...

Yes even though i downloaded it, I'm still going to buy it since you can't play multiplayer online with the cracked version. Nothing beats killing your friends online. hehehe

What platform?

For xbox xbconnect simulates the ilink and they have servers you can play on for fre...

So I went out and bought the PC version. Everything works okay except about 5 minutes into joining a game, my video card crashes and I get a message saying "Your video card is no longer functioning properly. Restart your computer, blah blah blah..."

Anyone else getting this problem?? I'm on a laptop with a Geforce 4200 GO card (a.k.a. :doo, but after doing the little system scan thing that comes with the game it says my card works fine. Any help would be appreciated, lest I have to tackle this problem on my own...

Update your Nvidia drivers to the latest http://www.nvidia.com
Then install the new directx after you install the nvidia drivers. http://www.microsoft.com/directx

No go, but thanks for trying.

It's like the laptop video card is forgotten, they always come out with updates and stuff for video cards but they never seem to include laptop cards.

After trying to download driver updates, I finally saw a little disclaimer at the bottom of the page saying that no laptop updates would be found here, and to use windows update instead. Even their own manufacturer didn't have updates for it!

I find the AI "interesting" to say the least.

I had 50 kills, 2 deaths (mostly from sniping this one round), but the stupid AI can't hold em off and help me win the game...

Everyone is talking about supernova? Is this some sort of P2P site? Is it free or is there a fee to this site? It sounds pretty good, from all I have heard.

You need a bittorrent client installed in order for it to work.

[Edit]
And just so you don't make a very common mistake, it's [snip], not [snip].
