Game runs well at 60 FPS and 5x native resolution. Thin black lines at the opening cut-scene and menu, but can be fixed by turning off texture filtering. Once in game though, you can turn Texture Filtering back on with no graphical glitches. There are some rare instances of audio stuttering. BIOS v2.00 was used. Zrooney
