Well i find that i prefer higher refresh rates even though the native is 60 - i cant see it bothering the monitor. |

I noticed 2, but wasnt impressed with the graphics - so left it alone, but Gothic 3 is looking really impressive in the graphics department - so im quite looking forward to it now, it'll at least keep me happy until Dark Messiah is released at the end of the month. |

You may want to enable vsync to try and solve the "jerky screen" issue - but make sure your refresh rate is above 60 or you'll only be able to get a max of 60fps |

You dont happen to have vsync turned on do you? If you run at 60hz and have vsync on, thats where your cap comes from, the game will only ever draw as many frames as your monitor can refresh. |

I was enjoying the outdoors - I didn't want a semi-Doom 3 clone! ;) Agree'd, the outdoors were the best part of Far Cry - the whole "genetically modified things" ruined it for me, i was quite enjoying shooting real people then they decided to try and make it "scary" and it just ruined it - i hope c... |

Definatly not my kinda game, but the entire 15min video kept me interested - so maybe it'll be worth a play, is there going to be a PC version? As that was console. |

Call of Juarez - i second that so much, loved that game.
Tomb Raider legend was really good too, agree'd again.
I wouldnt get Just Cause unless your into arcade games. |

Game appears to look pretty good with that +widescreen setting, i didnt notice any stretching in the game:

Not really sure if the FOV is fine or not, but it seemed very playable to me.
(ignore the terrible graphics, fresh install) |

The usual places really, Play.com being one of the cheaper, and eBay for those "older" games that we know and love. |
