Will do - won't be until after I get home from work today, though. TBH, I think it has to do with my OS installation - I never got off my arse to remove Vista SP2 RC and install the final SP2 release . . . so, because of that, I was never able to install the Vista Platform Update (which includes DX11 support, amoung other things). I think that is what's keeping the game from running the D3D11 update, which (I get the feeling) will allow me to run DX10. Anyhow, will report back later!

Yeah, it does - and it wouldn't surprise me if removing SP2 RC and installing SP2 + Platform Update fixes the issue. I guess this headache is what I get for being lazy  I can say this much, though - in DX9 mode, with my hardware, the game runs smooth as butter maxed out at 1920x1200. I get the impression the game isn't as "unoptimized" as everyone thought it would be . . . but, we'll see how DX10 goes.

I'm stoked to play this game, but I've got so many others on my list to finish first. Hopefully Steam will offer a discount on it at some point and I'll pick it up.

I'm hoping these 10.3a drivers do something good for the game. Unfortunately I have to sit here a work for the rest of the day just thinking about it.

Game is quite good, actually - I have a few small gripes (lack of head bobbing, footstep sounds), but nothing major. Atmosphere is awesome, too - it's a nice mix of STALKER and Fallout (more the atmo of the original FO1/FO2). Can't say there's anything "creepy" . . . I'm not one much to be un-nerved by games (TBH, only moments I can recall within the last 10 years was one point in STALKER:CoP, and the whole Shalebridge Cradle in Thief eadly Shadows).Although, if you were un-nerved AT ALL by your first run through of FEAR, Doom3, FEAR2, STALKER:SoC . . . there will probably be some moments in Metro that will quickly get under your skin. I love the lighting, and the lack thereof . . . there've been quite a few times where I never even noticed some of the mutants until they were right on top of me . . . you can see clearly, but at the same time you can't. Pretty neat.

System Specs
It's a shame no one will be able to run this game at "optimum specs" when it's released as the graphics cards they are saying you will need don't exist in the retail market.
