Perhaps now it might even be worth a purchase, depending on how the patch delivers. Might be the thing to save this game.

Im sure this is welcomed by most people who paid for it who hadnt traded it in straight afterwards. Bet the patch is quite big though but good to see them fixing a lot.

It is good to see them actually trying to fix the issues with the game, though these issues should never ever be allowed to exist in a released game. Especially lag in framerate in Single Player.

Yeah there are no excuses for releasing a game that wouldnt have even passed Beta stages in that condition. Lazy programmers whos reputation will be tarnished for a long time after releasing such a buggy product who have to work extra hard to patch the game up afterwards.

As I've said before: It is just a crappy port to the 360. The PC version is okay, as you can see by the patch. Most of the 360 fixes are just to bring it back up to the "original" PC version's state, and most of the PC fixes are cosmetical or multi-player fixes.
