Legacy

Post by Sonic Glitch »

I've been eyeing Star Trek Legacy for PC at my local Target store for a while now. Is it worth getting?

HELL NAW. save your money and get Bridge commander or something else. Even after modding, its buggy as hell even after patching. And few computers can actually power it.

The makers of that game can kiss my hairy ass. Ships bounce off of each other? What is this, f*cking space Pong? :?

Oh, my computer could handle that in its sleep. Though the CPU speed is a little high, it shouldn't be a problem (I have a 2.8GHz).

I am not sure about the VRAM or the pixil shader. I'm not even sure what VRAM is.

Wow, so when they say minimum, they really mean minimum.

And the ships bounce off of planets? :shock:

Bridge Commander is the best action-oriented 'Trek game ever made.

Which is really weird...

I have a laptop

2x2.0ghz AMD Turion64 processors, 3GB RAM, 200GB hard-drive.
NVIDIA GeForce Go 7150M grapics card with 1071MB shared video memory

shouldnt that be enough... because its awfully sketchy... even after i sliced down teh grapics options down to the lowest settings. Or is that the darn game.
