    Oh man, I know the feeling. I guess it's a good thing though, otherwise I'd spend even more money.

    I couldn't find it at the exchange shop, where it was apparently going for a quid. Acquiring it via alternative means, so i think we'll put it on hold for tonight, but tomorrow, definitely.

    I haven't used Hamachi in donkeys years - not since I moved from the UK to Los Angeles - but I'm fairly certain we need some kind of... server info? Maybe? Am I wrong?

    Would this run on a bitchingly serious Geforce 6150SE?

    Processor and memory wise I'm good, Athlon X2 5200+ 2.7Ghz + 1GB RAM.

    you might have a few settings on low, but i've been told this runs like butter on a 6600GT. If you get it, try running it in opengl for pretty amazing performance gains.

    The game is almost 4 years old now, so probably!

    But if you want to be certain, you could grab the demo and see for yourself.

    Why are you playing 2? The first and second encounter were much better.
