I have had the XBOX version since it came out then picked up the GOTY
version. I got the PC version about a week ago. So far I'm impressed with
the amount of mods and right now I'm running about 23 with a few of those
improving FPS. My Laptop is the only computer i have that is fast enough to
play it. Its an 1.9G 512M 16M video and its playable. Thanks for the link I
was wanting a mod that nade the game harder with out taking it to much out
of the game. The problem I have with the game is that when you get to to
level 70 the game gets boring. RadarG
