Installing on Windows 7... running 1920x1080. Mouselook won't work... trying Set Affinity to 1 core. OK. No mouselook while driving, but supposedly that's normal, though I don't remember it that way. Some research... it looks like mouselook while driving was an innovation that didn't come about until GTA San Andreas. I wish I could play Vice City using San Andreas' engine. Maybe I should check out the mod scene.
Starting up game again, I forgot how awesome the loading screen is - an audio visual representation of a Commodore 64 game loading sequence, so evocative of early 80's gaming. This is the kind of thing that inspires loyalty to a franchise or gaming shop, when they let you know they get you, that they are you.
Trying XP compatibility mode to get mouselook working - doesn't work. Tabbing out to change CPU cores back to 1. It'll do for now. Must find game controller, see if it helps for helicopter flying.
This should keep me busy until Deus Ex 3. I like to play mostly one game at time, alternating with something I've already played, and in a different genre. The GTA series is great for easy pickup games.
