I'd be inclined to agree with this. The original Deus Ex had huge levels, but the Deus Ex: Invisible War had miniscule levels half the size of the Deus Ex levels and a unified ammunition system that bit ass. OTOH, three games that were originally console games I had some fun with: BloodRayne (the original), May Payne 2 and Splinter Cell (the original). All I can say is I would imagine all three of those games would've been much better had they been programmed for the better system specs that PC's feature. -- there is no .sig > > No it just means more PC games will end up like console games -that's bad > for PC games. > > Anyone played the latest Leisure Suit Larry game?
