The pimp my devil's playground, er playhouse gaming rig thread!
Yes, I'm back with another spec analysis. This time it's the devil's playhouse! It's really simple: just tell me what specs ur computer is and what setting you play. I'll go first.

Game looks great but grainy(is it supposed to?)
RAM: 3 GB, Kingston
Video card: Nvidia GeForce 8400GS, 256MB
OS: Vista H. P.
1680x1050 set to level 3 and running like a crippled dog. Jerky graphics, out of sync voices, etc. Going to lower game settings to 1 and see what happens.
ToMI ran great at higher settings with same hardware installed *heavy sigh*
(I was going to max out my 'puter with a heftier GPU card, PSU and more RAM, but never did)
Perhaps it's time I went shopping...
Ram: 4GB of GSKILL DDR3 1600
Video card: HD 5850
OS WIndows 7 64 bit Ultimate
1080p @ Graphic quality level 9. I notice no difference between level 1 and 9 visually because of the ugly grain filter. Also, I get noticeable frame drops in season 3 for no reason what so ever.
Native resolution, not higher than 6 or the game goes at 1 FPMinute.
Now, your opinion on which settings should I use, maybe?

The game's running very smoothly on level 9.

The game.. sorta runs at 1280x800, with level 1 graphics xD (By sorta, I mean with fairly regular lag). I also randomly get artefacts, dodgy shadows/textures, and all sorts of graphical errors. But at least it runs, I had expected it to crash straight away, I'm just glad to play it.
I might turn the res down and see if that helps.
EDIT: actually, it runs quite well at 960x600, and if you center it on your desktop, it feels a bit like watching a film (so the graininess actually helps..)

1440x900. Graphics option 9. Some FPS drops in the wideshots of the street, but aside from that all runs smoothly.

NVidia GeForce 8400M G 512MB
Windows XP.
Shouldn't be a wonder that I can't go more than 3 in quality settings. Framerate suffers even in setting 4. It's the same in ToMI as well

Runs great here - finished the game this afternoon. No drops in framerate, no graphical glitches etc. Loving the film grain! Definitely looks better than ToMI.

Can only manage level 6 -- disappointing; the added shadows in level 7+ seems to be computationally expensive. I could max out ToMI.
4GB RAM (DDR2 I think)

I run it at 9 quality, it mostly runs great aside from occasional hiccups in the dramatic camera sweeps, and some slight framerate drops in high detail areas that also have alien apes in view (for instance, the Straight & Narrow area had a slightly lower framerate when Skunkape and Superball were standing out there at the beginning but improved after they had left, this also happened in other outdoor areas with the ape henchmen).
Makes me glad I upgraded my graphics card a few weeks back, I hadn't watched any of the game's trailers and wasn't expecting such a dramatic increase in graphical effects since ToMI. I'd probably have been really disappointed with the integrated HD 4200 that came with my machine.

9 quality, smooth as a cat clawing through melted butter. After playing for an extended time, the cache gets filled up and the game slows down dramatically, but it's nothing that exiting and reloading doesn't fix.

It's slow at 9, a bit faster at 8. In 7 is passable but the cursor lag. 6 and 5 had no problems, but the lip sync mess up once in a while. Mostly at the beginning to be fair. I played the first round in 6. I'm not using a mouse though. My experience says the cursor get a lot better with a mouse instead of the surface thingie of a notebook. Probably I'll could play it in 7 if I have a cursor, because the cursor will not lag that much =P
Playing at 1024x768 with a 3 graphic level.
or
Playing at 800x600 with a 6 graphic level.
?
I think the first one, but im still adjusting.

Running Graphics quality of 2 to 3 (depends if I have stuff in the background)
Resolution 1200 x 750 or something like that.
I want a better graphics card.
6 GB of RAM
ATI Radeon 5870
Ran fine at 1280x1024 with graphics quality set to 9 as soon as I changed the anti-aliasing to multi-sampling anti-aliasing in Catalyst Control Center - otherwise the street scene would dip down to 30 FPS...
np: Thomas Fehlmann - Fluss Im Wasser (Gute Luft)
I have a laptop with the same specs. I'm so glad I use a desktop now.
This is just the windows side of my Macbook Pro, BTW.
ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 128 MB

Ran on 5 at a fairly good rate with super face melting heating issues. (but I'll blame the laptop for that)
Edit: And now that I have a new (and working) hard drive.

Runs nicely at level 9 quality.
That's the worst argument. Film grain is an artistic decision, are you one to complain if a film has a grain effect? If so then you are the sort of person who got the LotR Blu-ray without grain.
I actually respect TTG for not giving an option to remove the grain, unlike Bioware and Valve, sticking to your guns is an important thing. Hell it's incredibly subtle for grain.
I'm running it on:
