(compared to the Farcry2 Hotfix!)
It's not the 8.10 FarCry2 HotFix, but the 8.11 RC1. Look at the source and the thread of the forum. I think the news' title should be changed.

Good deal - Bioshock actually crashed on me yesterday - felt like playing it again and NOT harvesting every one of the little ones...

Yeah - seriously. Even the PS3 can run this game at supposedly said "PC Maximum Settings DX10" at 1080p without a problem.

Yes, but it likely applies to all Unreal Engine 3 games.

Also, is this really the same as the 8.11 RC1? It said that it was BASED on the same 8.542 driver. It could be like 8.542.2 now or something like that. And does it also include the Far Cry 2 improvements?

Oh, and the AMD download link is no longer working.
