jg_wiganafc26 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I've got the game, entered that product code, about to play the game and get a message saying, "Failed to set up graphics system." Anything I can do about it or am I just basically f*cked? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phonic Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I got exactly the same thing after spending about 2 hours being told I'm not connected to the internet... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Nevin's penalty Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I thought I read somewhere that someone said if you don't have a good enough graphics card then it'll just revert to commentary only. So, whether you want to play in 3d or not I take it you have no choice. You need a compatible graphics gard to play the game full stop? If thats the case, I won't be buying it.

spellstef Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 The top and bottom of it is, if, like me, you have a limited Graphics Card capability, your not playing this game. Whata joke. I now cant return it, as its opened. Rubbish SI, too clever for your own good here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 spellstef instead of moaning try downloading and installing the patch. You'd be surprised it might actually help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
