Yup, but it's the first time I've seen it used for benchmarks. I suspect that other hardware sites will start using it soon, too.

I downloaded it through steam, which everyone else seems to hate while I love it. The file was 1.8 gigs and it downloaded in around 90 minutes.

I attempted a run, but my card does not have shader 3.0, and something else 3.0, so it wont render the mouse pointer. The intro loads, and the menu loads, but after that its an invisible mouse pointer, and once I actually clicked through it wouldn't run.

MY system:

AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.2 GHz (socket 754)
MSI K8 NEO-FSR MOBO (nvidia nforce3 250)
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128 MB AGP (256-bit DDR memory
2GB G.Skill performance DDR400
SATA 1.5 hard drives
Creative sound blaster live! 24-bit sound card

I am already planning on building a new system in November when I get my stipend so I'm not worried about this not working. Just thought I would add my stuff so others know.
Cheers, Damnidge

I have been playing Medal of honor Airborn which is runing on the unreal 3 engine, It runs great on my comp [4400 x2 2gigs ram an a 8800gt 340meg vid card] it also runs good on my buds comp[3200 athlon 64 1 gig ram and a 7800gs agp vid card]. This is a fun game to if anyones interested although its sorta short.
