Wow, if I didn't already have this on 360, I'd probably get it. I'm more invested in Steam now, but for $5...

same i want to but damn Steam >> D2D

got one and played few hours.. dame this game is amazing! thanx op!

Finally jumped in on the deal; had forgotten that I had $5 credit from the Christmas/End of Year promotions. Paid $0.25 through Paypal. Thanks, OP!

Damn...If this was 360 I'd Shit my pants

but i prefer console Gaming personally

I bit before it gets too late. Honestly, the youtube video reminded me how awesome the game looked. From what I hear, play it on easy so you can get the most out of being a space asshole and destroying everything.

With the speed-up issue, the game will basically runs about 1.5 times faster than it is supposed to. It seems to affect almost everyone on Windows 7, and a few people on other OSs. I am on a pretty high end Windows 7 computer, and I experience all of the issues I mentioned. I regret getting the PC version of this game. Though, it's only $5, so you may be able to look past the problems. They have promised a second patch, so hopefully it will fix a lot of the issues.

Has anyone who has played it experienced any of these problems, namely the frame rate ones?

Being able to register it to Impulse is a huge plus but I don't want to spend $5 on something that is a broken POS.

yeah I got the framerate issues. its choppy when you destroy things.
So what I did was set it to the most basic graphic settings and it helped, but sometimes
it will freeze even though you are just walking around.
Now it maybe my PC ( amd X2 5200, 8800GTS, 2gb ram, xp pro) but then again I have no other issues w/other recent games.


hopefully there will be a new patch, because the game IS fun.

I prefer console for local multiplayer... computer for online... and from my understanding this game only has online multiplayer on the 360?

Well I bought it, we'll see how this goes I guess.

Loved the game when it came out. I want to get it but can't justify it as I still have Dragon Age to go through.

A few things you could try that work for some people:

-Once the game starts, open up task manager and go to the Processes tab. Right click on rfg.exe and go to Set Priority, and change the priority from Above Normal to Normal. You will have to do this every time you run the game.

-Try playing in windowed mode

What? That can't be true can it? That would be a deal breaker for me.

I got this for $7.50 at Target and didn't have any notable frame rate problems, but there was such a terrible audio bug - environmental sounds are louder than everything else, drowning out dialog and being generally annoying - I quit playing it. Too bad.

This is not true. There is online multiplayer on the PC version.

I couldn't pass this one up. Downloading this sweet deal right now.

Picked it up my self... hopefully if i do have these problems listed they will patch it.

Sweet! I beat it on the 360 and I'm willing to jump in again. Thanks OP.

Ah, I think my question was a bit unclear.

From what I read online it seems that on the 360 there is no local multiplayer (hooking up multiple controllers on one 360 to play with friends), only online multiplayer - can anyone with the 360 version confirm?

I usually go with the 360 version if I can do local multiplayer, PC if it is strictly 1 player on the 360.

Thats correct from what I remember , there was only some destruction mode where you passed the control to see who could do the most damage or something.
