|Comments=Can confirm that it works, however experiencing some slowdowns in certain areas where the framerate randomly drops down to 15 - 25 before jumping back up to 60FPS. What causes this appears to be the flames effects in the game (wherever you find torches, fireplaces).

|Comments= MUST HAVE 4GB PATCH!!!!! Extremely playable. Nearly perfect 60FPS. Settings: SSE4 GSDx, OpenGL (Hardware), Blend tff (slight blur, 1/2fps), bilinear (PS2), ENABLE: Allow 8 bit textures, HW Hacks, 3x native (4x runs out of memory and gets unstable), Blending unit accuracy is HIGH. Only issue is a slight stutter around fires.The plugin settings window must be set to BALANCED(3) Anything more causes the screen to "tear" on the charectors and artifacts through levels.

|Comments=4 GB patched. 60 FPS almost all of the time. -Texture filtering = Bilinear forced - 3xNative rez - 8-bit Texture on - Large Framebuffer on - Anisotropic x16 - Accurate Blending = None - Fast Texture invalidation on - Half-pixel offset = Special (Texture). With those settings the police characters are more visible and fire won't slow the emulation. Played half the game in coop dwarf/mage with no problems.

|Description=Pre-rendered videos (such as the opening logos) are corrupted.
|Description=Pre-rendered videos (such as the opening logos) are corrupted in hardware mode (PCSX2 1.5.0-20160720115610).
|Workaround=Enable manual game fixes in the emulation settings, and check "Switch to GSdx software rendering when an FMV plays."
|Workaround=Go to Config > Emulation Settings > Game Fixes tab, click "Enable manual game fixes", and check "Switch to GSdx software rendering when an FMV plays." However, PCSX2 seems to have trouble detecting when an FMV has stopped playing in this game, so it will likely stay in software mode even during gameplay.

{{Issue
|IssueName=Visible lines when upscaling
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Vertical and horizontal lines appear in menus and text boxes when using 2x or higher internal resolution.
|Workaround=There is no known correct solution, setting the Round Sprite HW hack to "Half" fixes most of it, but it massively reduces the quality of the text/sprites. Use native resolution or switch to software mode.
