Animation jerky , kickouts , screen breaks or flickers with a line and a big square ... Cut scenes run (sorry run wrong word) frame by frame. Graphic look terrible ... What is need to run this anywhere half decent ? If this demo is piece of the game then I would not buy it ....

P4 2Ghz
1Gb DDR
80Gb Seagate HD with about 10GB freespace
GF6600GT 128Mb ..


No options or I can't see them in demo or in the start menu ..

From what Ive seen , does not look any different from last years demo ...

Hey Mighty Tic,

Frustrating aint it...I have a similar setup and have experienced the same stuff. One thing that helps is to put your video cards 3d settings on default- everything should be at application preference---

Its just too tricky to make things for the PC market. Plus theres no money in it. As I said in another post, I'm buying an xbox....

Did what you said and I put the res to 800x600 med graphics .. This took nearly all the frame rate stutter out of the game , but still at kickouts the screen stutters. Gameplay is nearly normal but when the cpu has it it can go keystone cops speed, the game is to fast and the shots kickout and even throw outs zoom away. I got the keeper to throw the ball out "underarm" I used about 20% of the power bar the ball went just as fast as some of the shots.

God lknows what what type of rig you would need to play this at 1280x1024 high ?

Even when it was running the way it should, the animations of the players running does look a bit off legs and arms go to fast , shots from outside the box are ALL like rockets and tend to be low shots no matter how much power bar you give it, the shots are fast and only go past the keeper shoulder high, only 1 shot I had I see it hit high in the back of the net and that was only because the keeper got a hand to it and knocked it higher .

the game is moving in the right direction , but has a way to go to beat PES for gameplay and at the end of the day that's what its all about ...
