    I don't think so. IIRC, there is competitive MP.

    I'v also heard the PC version can be difficult to get working. This was last year though.

    My Phenom 940 plays it like silk, thank you very much.

    GTA IV is a great game and 8 hours in I haven't had one bug or problem yet.

    Oh and to those of you who purchased commandos... be prepared to be frustrated often.

    Good games but but on the higher end of the hard scale.

    As tempting as gta and red faction are....I am going to stick it out for a total war and/or borderlands deal. I still have steam Xmas items unplayed (mass effect and assassins creed)

    Really? On a E8400? I have mine overclocked to 3.8ghz right now and am still have some stuttering issues. I can play it, but it is hardly "fine." Did you do any tweaks?

    Nice, I've heard this game REALLY likes quad cores.

    I have GTA IV on my PC (E6600) and while I do have to turn down the detail it runs just fine. I'm not a graphics whore like some are though so YMMV.

    EDIT: I ended up getting the Borderlands General Knoxx expansion because a few dollars isn't going to make a huge difference for me at that price point.

    Nice, I need to open a new thread in the appropriate forum about getting a new CPU, the AMD's are looking tempting.

    Edit (and off topic but what the hell lol): What about this deal? http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboD...t=Combo.431711
