I read comments here from time to time, but usually only get the urge to post when I see a ton of unwarranted negativity toward a developer. Take into consideration that Gearbox was given a fairly short amount of time (no, they didn't have two years, it was far closer to half a year) to basically rewrite a ton of graphics code, write complete multiplayer code from the ground up, come up with some new multiplayer modes, redo most of the character models, and do a bunch of other general optimizations. It's actually a pretty daunting challenge, and I don't think anyone here, save maybe a few developers who post, has a right to knock them when they have little to no idea what goes into a port of this nature. And it's clearly not a shitty port. A shitty port would be Dino Crisis 2. Awright, I'm done, troll on.
