I was not bragging, but describing how it runs on a PC. Framerate never dipping below 30 (with 45+ in averages, if left unlocked) is fairly far from the 17-30 on console.
On release the game ran like dog on PC too though, on AMD cards. It took new Omega drivers to double the framerate. This patch increased framerate extremely mildly, almost unnoticeably.
The thing is...we do not know if the game is badly optimized, or if it is as optimized as it can get and the hardware performance simply isn't there to power it. They could probably get that stable 30 on consoles and 60 on PC, if they downgraded it. I would even welcome it, since 60 is so much more pleasant for me.
I wasn't "making shit up" (why so hostile?), I misremembered. Thanks for correcting me, I actually bought it in february 2011 for $250 so yes, that will be 4 years in two months. Still quite old.
