BillyMaysFan59: Did some good graphical testing on my new ThinkPad W500 with the Thief Gold HD Texture mod.
Unfortunately, native resolution (1900x1200) brings it down to its knees, at a rather choppy framerate. Lower 16:10 resolutions like 1440x900 run a little better, but the framerate bogs down in some areas. At 1024x768 it's nice and smooth.
Of course without the HD mod installed, Thief GOLD ran good at native resolution. Yeah, my hardware is awesome-er than in my old laptop, but shouldn't have expected *that* much out of it I suppose. :P
You're not the only one contending with framerate problems. Just tried to play Batman Arkham Origins, and my crappy integrated graphics can't handle it no matter how much I cut the visuals down.

Have a good night, sleep well. =)
superstande: good morning! :)
today my hangover isn't too bad. on a scale 1 to 10, it's about 3.
watched some NHL gaming last night. not into playing that one, but it's nice to watch someone you know play someone neither knows and get occasionally very serious... multiplayer hmm... maybe I should install galaxy finally.
Any thoughts? :)

Glad to hear you're not on the far end of the hangover scale.
One day I'll have to drink enough to finally experience one of those. -laughs-
As for multiplayer, it's something I look forward to trying at some point since I now know people who wouldn't ruin game experiences for me. But I don't have a list of things to play in that category.
