What's that shit about buying some stupid game console ? With the
upcoming of 3D acceleration cards gamingconsoles are DOOMED !!
In 10 years max noone will use pure game console's anymore, because
there won't be any differenzes ! Besides, did you use starting
parameters for running HEXEN 2 ? If not, you should check out the readme
files first !
And don't worry about your PC not being fast enough, it is fast enough
for default Res. Because I have a friend with a P100 and 16 megs RAM and
he has no problem with it, even in Networkplay.
