I have just read in PC Gamer that this game (due out Jan 2003) would need a minimum processor of 1.4ghz !
This takes the pee, has the world gone mad, surely this would rule out 50% of gamers immediately ?
The game looks excellent by the way :)

Control Panel > System Properties> General.

Or use Norton Utilities > System Information to check your processor speed.

I'm sure there's a command for the CLI as well, but I can't remember it.

How do find out the CPU speed of your PC? Mine is a Pentium 4 but I've looked everywhere and it wont tell me how many ghz it has.

I think thief is great. I like going round the huge levels knocking people our then stealing their swag. Just like a true thief.

It beats getting given tons of weapons and gadgets but not being able to use them because in doing so you'll have to fight off an endless army of enemy guards.
