Did anyone buy the game yet?
Do you guys think my system will be able to handle it?

So, I guess that means you're not going to tell us about the new Indy Jones game?

Oh well...

I should be receiving my shipment of it in today but I won't be able to give it a try until I get home. I'll try and remember to post something tonight or tomorrow.

I played it briefly at work on my PB 800 (Radeon 7500) and it seemed playable. It's not a FPS so lightning quick reflexes and precise aiming need not apply. You don't need uber framerates to enjoy the game. It's a 3rd person action game using the same engine as the first Buffy the Vampire Slayer game that came out for XBox. Based on the dinking around I did, it would most likely be playable on your system.

Played it on the XBox, so not much insight here except that it is an enjoyable game. Jumping mechanics could be better, easy to beat, but fun none the less. Recommend it.
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

I played it on Xbox too.
I thought it was crap though. The camera-angles were ALWAYS wrong!
