Status: offline 		Not realy related to wargaming but.. has anyone checked out Mafia? After downloading the demo i'm pretty sure I will never buy it. Even with a high end graphics card the framerate would get rediculously slow that it was practicaly unplayable in any battle with nemerous gang bandits aproaching.

I tried to tone down the settings yet still not much luck.

Status: offline 		Hmm. I have half a gig system ram. Then another 128 megs ram on the Geforece4 for my athlon system. So I am just confused as to why the frame rate is bad. I even dropped all the graphical settings, and still it’s like no speed increase. Oh well just one of those mysteries.

Status: offline 		Perhaps the demo was not as optimized as the final product?
I run a 1.1 ghz with 768 mb RAM and a ge4mx440 64 mb video card and the full version game runs great.
Really well designed game imo, truly like an interactive movie.

The story line, graphics and characters are all superb. Very underrated.

I think GTA is overrated. The missions are no fun at all. Just races against the clock. Mafia is better.
