A word of warning Werthead Send a noteboard - 29/04/2010 01:56:07 AM
EMPIRE: TOTAL WAR and GRAND THEFT AUTO IV are very flaky on PC. Both games have had patches released which help a lot, but there's still issues with both games running like crap on really good, really powerful machines for no real reason. Of course, they run perfectly fine on other machines, so it's a bit random which result you'll get.

Personally, I'd consider GTA4 on console instead and maybe pick up NAPOLEON: TOTAL WAR (which is very similar to EMPIRE, and far more stable).

PC will always allow you increased complexity. - 29/04/2010 02:23:56 AM 438 Views
Only if the game includes greater complexity in a PC version. - 01/05/2010 06:49:12 AM 410 Views

Can't speak for GTA4 (not played it yet) - 30/04/2010 06:13:18 PM 433 Views
I agree - GTA IV is frustratingly unoptimized on the PC. *NM* - 12/05/2010 08:38:17 PM 427 Views
