Just beware, SR2 has major issues with Windows 7. It runs at super speed and Volition refuses to fix it. There are custom fixes for it, but I could never get them to work so I've never played the game.

If I remember correctly, it has something to do with the CPU, but the issue is only on Windows 7. Doesn't seem to affect everyone though, but affects enough people that the Steam forum members have written death threats to Volition previously. Volition acknowledged the issue, but said that due to the game being old they're not going to fix it.

The custom fix slows the game down somewhat, and you have to set the speed using trial and error to see what speeds works for you.

I've never played this game... how is it in comparison with Dragon Age, Witcher, Fallout? I'd like to know what to compare it to so I can better form an idea of what kind of game it is.

If I were to compare it to any game, it would most likely be Diablo, it's a typical dungeon crawler, except this one has co-op and a little bit of rpg-elements thrown in aswel.

If you but it, lemme know, keen on playing again co-op (just note I don't have a working mic)
