I was [] < This close to NOT buying this game due to the bugs reported by all the

.
Until it was posted that most issues were confirmed to be illegal copies - only then did I buy the game.
I have not been dissapointed - NO CTD's - no issues really to speak of (No Show stoppers).
Only main issue I have is that patch 1.01 installs but wont run IE EXE loads into RAM with 100% CPU but DVD drive is not spooling up. :hmm:
SH4 on 100% realism is WAY better than SH3 - very nice challenge.
