This thread has been linked to the game 'Splinter Cell'.
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 :)

Strange, I got Thief 2 a couple of months back, and played the first two levels, but haven't touched it since. I should start playing it again sometime.

Just as I suspected. It looks alright and I may give it a try sometime, probably when it's on budget, but the trouble I always have with stealth games is they hardly ever keep my attension for longer than a week, if that.

You need the same kinda spec for GTA3 apparantly.
Just poor coding to get it ported from the consoles as quick as possible. Looks poo anyway

1.4Ghz?!?!
If a game can't be run on an 866, then it hasn't been coded properly.

I've got the US XBox version and I reckon it's over-rated personally. Bored the pants off of me. It's quite a linear experience. Doesn't look all *that* good either IMO. Not a Metal Gear 2 beater either IMO.

I've got the US XBox version and I reckon it's over-rated personally. Bored the pants off of me. It's quite a linear experience. Doesn't look all *that* good either IMO. Not a Metal Gear 2 beater either IMO.
Obviously meant for a top of the range PC, not that I'm bothered, the game looks mind numbingly boring. No action at all I read somewhere, just sneaking about peeking through doors and rolling past people. Where the fun in that eh?
