• There is a shaking problem in game, but it can be fixed by choosing blend bff interlace mode in gsdx.
• You need a pretty fast cpu in order to run the game nicely without speedhack since speedhacks don't improve much for the game. |

BIOS: v2.00,
• Interlacing Mode: Bob tff The game is extremely GPU intensive, If having low FPS, try running in native resolution mode, scaling also creates tiling in the GUI and purple haze around GUI objects. DX10 mode fixes some UI problems such as the map and the levels introduction text. |

Game works well and is able to run at 60FPS at 1080P with hardware rendering. The purple haze around GUI and other icons is still present. Bios v2.0 was used. | Zrooney |
