Warnings
- SafeDisc retail DRM does not work on Windows Vista and later (see Availability for affected versions).
Key points
- Based on the Xbox 360 and PlayStaion 3 versions of the game.
- Frame rate is capped at 30 FPS. Mouse sensitivity heavily relies on frame rate. See High frame rate.
- The PC port is missing several graphical elements such as bloom and motion blur from its console counterparts, as well as having a worse implementation of mipmaps, resulting in worse overall texture quality and visible lines that move along textures with the camera.[citation needed] See Visible mipmap lines on textures.

Issues unresolved
Extreme audio echo effect
In some areas, the game may have a heavy echo effect on the audio, where music and/or sound effects will echo and become extremely loud, while voices will become difficult to hear. This seems most common in indoor and underground areas, such as the MechaBioCon facility, the subways, and the sewers.
Visible mipmap lines on textures
Due to a bad mipmap implementation, some filtering lines can be seen on textures (especially when wall crawling on city buildings) that reduce the texture quality after each line.
Use dgVoodoo 2 to disable mipmaps. |

|
The game suddenly loses audio
- Caused by minimizing the game. just don't minimize it or use DXWind to play in windowed mode without borders. in this case, switching between windows does not cause sound problems.

While the game offers the option to replay most of the missions using the black suit, there is no actual New Game Plus option. If you want to play the game with all upgrades, you can use a modified save file.
