The first of nine in the series, SiN Episodes: Emergence is a new breed of episodic content. Think Half-Life 2 but with large breasts and swearing. We test it on eight different graphics cards to test high-end and mid-range performance.

"The good news is that this continues with SiN Episodes, which is even missing the recent HDR eye candy Valve added to Source - the only potential snag for gamers with older hardware. We were aiming to run the game at the native 1280x1024 resolution of our ViewSonic 19" LCD and as you can see, we succeeded.

The bad news is that GeForce 6-series cards don't support Transparency AA, so the image quality wasn't the same as for our high-end system. However, we were still able to apply 4x of vanilla AA on the GeForce 6800 GT OC and the Radeon X850XT, and 2xAA on the slower 6600 GT OC and X1600XT cards."
