Great vid thanks for the find. So I bought this game today and fell in love with it already, AWESOME story, great graphics and good gameplay, what more could you ask for :)

I just finished my semi-second playthrough last night. Semi because I didn't start from the beginning.

Now I'm on to Bioshock 2, but that's another thread

Enjoy ME2 It's a great game.

Later.

Same here with Bioshock2 :)

I'll hijack my thread for a moment....

What version did you get? I went with the Special Edition (PC)

Just now opening it so...

Just the regular edition

havent played a whole lot..
But touched on the multi player a bit. Was fun :)

But concertrating on single player campaign atm. So far really like it alot, but i really like BS 1 too so...

how does all the extras look out of the box? hard to really tell from pictures

Bioshock 2 looks virtually the same as the first, so textures are a bit low resolution. Force Anisotropic Filtering to 4X in CCC and save the profile as Bioshock 2. Much better - I had to jack up the brightness a bit too. For me, AA isn't necessary. Even better, 3GB of RAM is recommended so its optimised for x64!

Here you go - BioShock 2 Special Edition Unboxing Goes Horribly Wrong - bioshock 2 - Kotaku. Couldn't afford the uber edition though

And DX10

Bioware has released New DLC for ME2 - Cerberus Weapon and Armor (Cerberus Network) - 17.7MB.

I haven't tried it yet - no missions left under my current playthrough

Are you serious? This is probably the least efficient method I can think of.

An hour and a half to two hours a week doing this keeps my system running just as fast as it was the day I installed windows 7. All my media and personal files are on a separate partition from the OS and programs, so I don't lose anything when I do it. Everything else I've tried results in an inevitable slow down. Maybe when I can afford a large SSD it won't be necessary any more, but I like being able to cold start my system in about 30 seconds.

Do a clean restore, install ME2, save the image. Problem solved.
