And I make sure my room is dark, of course.

Could you imagine this game wearing virtual reality goggles and in 3D?

I play with moderately loud volume, home alone. in the pitch black. I use a very nice pair of headphones, they aren't noise canceling though. I choose non-noise canceling because my house is old and creaky, so being able to hear my own house in the background adds to the horror. I run the game on max settings obviously...

As this is my first post, I couldn't help to post the specs on my new PC I built recently! Big Grin

Let's see...

OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

Memory: 6144 MB (about 6 gigs) of RAM

Processor: Intel Core i7 950 @ 3.07 GHz

Mobo: X58A-UD3R (Gigabyte)

Video Card(s): 2 Nvidia GeForce GTX 460 in SLI mode

I could mention about the 'optical' disk drive and the hard drive, but there's really no point, as the "stuff" I have's pretty standard (Disk Drive: 28x, Hard Drive: 500 GB 7200 RPM, etc.)

That's a nice set-up! Big Grin i7 950 and GTX 460 in SLI mode ExclamationExclamation Amnesia has low requirements but I bet you can play Crysis (2) on maximum settings!

Is that possible? As long as the 3D effects don't feel cheesy it would certainly make the whole experience even more scary, I think.

Thanks, flcn27! I've never been a huge fan of the Crysis games (Crysis and Warhead), but when I played it before, it seemed to work well on full/maximum settings.

Surprisingly, Amnesia actually has fairly high requirements. Oddly enough, when I set SSAO samples to 128, the frame rate doesn't do too well, and is somewhat playable (but not good enough to enjoy the 'full' experience). Would this be considered normal on a computer like mine?

EDIT: I guess this wouldn't be the 'best' place to ask this but...
