Not bad, I expected 19.99, but is still very good price, Konami can easily sell another 200k copies.

Also they will launch a playable demo tomorrow in Steam, I've seen this news before sleeping and wanted so bad to share it, but I couldnt go back to my PC at this time (I was on a cellphone).

Test the demo

I5 2500k
4gb Ram
Geforce 5600 TI

Perfect at full HD, 60fps, 8xAA. Wonderfull. But play it with xbox controler (keyboard suck...)

The game was adapted to PC by Climax (i say this in other post but forgot the name) not MS (too busy..). (Perhaps next CV team...???)

Only two bad things.
- Prerenderer scenes have the old consoles resolution (now are ugly if you compare with the gameplay...)
- If you wand to play in Japan (like me..) you must download the japan demo of steam... this demo is for Eu/Usa, no japan language.

So its the same game but with much better FPS and resolution, the 2 DLC, and THE BEST posibility of MODS...

Actually the fact that cutscenes not being affected really sucks. Those were the scenes with the best frame rates XD. Would love to see it in motion though  :o

Watching the game played on a stream and holy shit it's like night and day at 60 FPS. Mercurysteam (or rather Climax) did good with this port. Just wish it wasn't the same demo the consoles got, can't wait to see the other area's. If this demo is any indication, LOS2 on PC will be amazing.

If only the pre rendered cutscenes weren't still 24 fps though..

Holy crap, just played the demo. Was NOT expecting to get full FPS with maximum graphics on my PC... and my PC is at least 4-5 years old. Most PC ports of console games run like garbage for me, so seeing 60 FPS with this really threw me off guard.

A wild Ralph appears.

Yeah I haven't seen a PC port this well optimized since DMC4.

W o w.

This game looks so much better at 60 FPS. Great port, can't wait to see how LoS2 looks on PC too.

So when people actually experience the game at 60fps, somehow frame rate is a valid and noticeable thing again? But oh no, when it's concerning the console release of LoS and MoF, "frame rate doesn't matter at all" and "you cant tell the difference".

Uzo have a point, when he said about MoF framerate everyone said that its not that bad and that he was nitpicking, In my case I dont think that I would notice these changes, my eyes arent so sharp for that (I didnt have noticed changes in this "HD" thing on TVs until now) but these persons that noticed that now can surely notice framerates.

Anyone know if this has a benchmark? I don't really have the space to spare for even the demo but I wanna know how well it would run.
