I've come across new screenshots I haven't seen before, that some of you might want to check out. However, since the game's release is around the corner, you may not want to look at them. Some of the shots are kind of spoilerish.

Okay, now for something I've heard, which might be considered bad news. But I think it only applies to Europe. Apparently, will be released only on DVD over there. (As far as I know, in America it will still be CD-ROM.) This, IMHO, will seriously hurt the sales of the game. Not everyone has a DVD-ROM drive in their computer, yet. I know the reason behind it, but I still think it's a bad move.

3 regular CD's isn't that bad. DIablo 2 Takes that much. ANd one of them is a play CD that you use for the game. I would presume that would be for the musix or sound effects that are required for the game.
And yes I would agree it shouldn't be on DVD but on regulatr CD. Since most people do not have a dvd player in their computer systems. Even me over here. I had two or trhee computers over here. and none of them have a dvd player in them..

Yep! I don't know why we're not all using DVD-ROMs for our games and stuff. Who now-a-days *doesn't* have a DVD-ROM Drive?

Got a CD-RW burner and Dvd-rom.
If DVD-ROM acts up (unlikely) I can always fall back on cd-rw. x.xabortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

I don't have one yet because I'd rather have a DVD burner for my computer that can write and play DVDs and CDs. And I'm also holding off till I build my next computer which should be next year. I'm just keeping an eye on the tech market.
But I really should suck-in-my-gut and go out and by a DVD drive.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill onlineabortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion

That is a smart thing to do Qix. That is what I am doing presently and until I get the $$ for the idea machine that I would like to make for my desk over here. And hopefully the prices will drop on certain things that I am looking for.

I've had a DVD-ROM drive since 1998 because I use it in conjunction with a Sigma Designs Hollywood Plus hardware DVD decoder to watch movies on my PC.
Movies look better on the PC due to the superior resolution of PC monitors. Trust me, you MUST see TRON on the PC.
BTW, I don't care what ANYONE says, software DVD decoding can't match or beat pure hardware DVD decoding.

Amen to that, Mutie. If anybody is looking for a good hardware decoding solution, I recommend any of ATI's Radeo cards above 9000...they offer krunktacular OpenGL & Direct3D support as well, especially when empowered with the gift from the Users that is DDR-RAM.

I can't argue for any encoding that is done via hardware. Just don't like the software kind that takes a lot of juice from the CPU... Too many cycles waisted for my taste.

Tried.
Can't even @#)(*$#@ watch it because the encoding on it flips out on me. It suddenly goes all weird... in the middle of it, can't remember where exactly, but I know it stops right after they reach the pure source. It really annoyed the heck out of me because out of all movies I have, only Tron wasn't playable on the playstation. >___ Kia: Cool. I'm a infamous mythological perfect User.
