Halo PC & Patch Released [Sep 30, 2003, 5:17 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Microsoft sends word that Halo:
Combat Evolved for the PC has hit store shelves across the United States. On
the heels of this announcement, a patch is available, updating the PC version of
Bungie's first-person shooter to version 1.01. The patch is 3.6 MB, available
from 3D Gamers, Boomtown,
Computer Games Online,
Fappin, FileFront,
GameCenter.cz, Gameplex,
Gamer's Hell,
and Worthplaying.
I read something from Randy Pitchford of Gearbox.
He says timedemo is really only useful for comparing systems, not for determining an individual system's performance. It times *everything* from start to stop, including level loading from disc, level init, etc. They plan to fix it up to be a real timedemo for the next patch.
So real FPSs are better than timedemo says.
I use the console command `rasterizer_fps true' to see what's going on in real time.
