[citation][nom]rockstone1[/nom]You should try World In Conflict. The game is demanding as hell on my computer.[/citation]
Pretty good game. Runs well on my Q6600, 64bit vista, 4gb ram,9600GT in SLI. Very nice graphics.

You know enough about gaming?? So I guess that makes you an Optometrist then, qualified to tell people medical information about the eyes?? You either have bad vision, or bad perception of motion. I can use fraps, and kick on recording at 30FPS while in a 40+FPS situation, and I can notice the difference immediately, even at only 10FPS difference above 30. The reason that sports on TV looks so much smoother in motion than the typical movie is cause they are filmed at a higher frame rate than the typical 24fps NTSC frame rate, and even non-gamers can tell the difference between those video sources. Once you start getting past 80+, the law of diminishing returns starts to really take effect, but still is better. I'd say around 100+ it becomes negligable to 98% of people, but that does not mean that no one out there has vision good enough to notice higher than that, even if I couldn't.
Finally, the game itself has a lot to do with what frame rate is reasonably playable. Turn based strategies don't need nearly the frame rate of games like burnout/tekken/COD/Dirt. Plus, if the game itself has very little motion most of the time (myst etc.), a high frame rate wouldn't matter or be noticeable most of the time either.
Finally, there are enough people who have made themselves clear about being able to notice differences in higher frame rates (30+). Don't go around talking crap and calling them, or myself, liars just to gratify your ego over your own genetic shortcomings. I can't do a backflip, does that mean I should go around saying others can't?

You're full of crap, did you know that?
1- Any television broadcasts images at either 25 or 30fps,while the LCD/tube rewrites the screen at 50/60/100Hz. This is been done to prevent flicker to be seen. The human eye sees black/white flashes very well, but can not differentiate smaller colorchanges at these frequencies (eg: flashes of blue to purple to blue to purple; or yellow to green to yellow to.., or red to orange,..).
2- "Law of diminishing"? What kind of 'out off ass rubbish' would you call that?
3- So you are going to tell the world that there are people there that can see the difference between a movie that has 100fps, and a movie that runs on 25fps? Why don't you write an article about that, and see how ridiculous that statement is? I'm sure very few people will agree with you!
4- So now the type of game plays a role in framerates? You're paranoid!
5- If you think that you're one of the god gifted men on the world who can differentiate between seeing a movie or playing a game at 25fps and 100fps,then keep on dreaming in your own world sucker!

I generally would give you more facts and scientific explenation if asked, but for a buttwhore like you, I'm not even going to try!

Theirs something wierd here... The ati 4650 at 1920x1200 with 8xMSAA enabled has more fps than with 4xMSAA enabled in the same resolution...
Actually both Minimun and average FPS are higher... How is that possible?

This game is so awesome i wish every PC port of console game would be like this.Even on a lowly radeon 5450 and Athlon 64X2 i used to get 30fps at 720p and now at 1440*900 atmax settings i get 60fps.Awesome game and awesome port.
