    Anti Aliasing: Fooling the eye into thinking a jagged edge on an image is smooth.

    About your game crashing, tell me the exact conditions of the problem. Is it just with a certain episode? Does it always crash within five minutes?

    it crashes every five minutes during play :( if i have the graphics and resolution down real low then it plays fine but its kinda annoying

    right so anti aliasing being high or low will have what effect on the game? be patient with me :)

    If you turn anti aliasing off, the game will run better but the edges of objects in the game will look a bit jaggier.

    Or, perhaps, your computer may not be up to the job? Have you updated all of your drivers recently?
