Very nice
I'm rather happy that the gog release makes it possible to play this gem on Win7 x64. I do own the hardcopy version of the game, but manually trying to patch it and get it to run usually results in a crashy unstable mess that had glitchy graphics or broken sound (for me anyway). Especially so under 64-bit operating systems. This GOG version does hang when first launching (just the video hangs, the game itself is still responsive), but alt-tabbing out and back into the game makes the intro videos play normally, after which everything runs fine! I've read that some peeps seem to have issues, but guys just keep in mind that you're looking at a game made in 1999. If you crash every 30 mins, make sure to save in 25 min intervals and just pick up where you left off. :] Unlike many modern games, you can save whenever you feel like it and don't have to make it to fixed checkpoints or anything.
Is this helpful to you?
