Additional Comments
Nothing special was done to get this game working. Installed from CD through Steam, let it update and started the game after update ( NO PARAMETERS WHAT SO EVER ). With ATI Radeon x1650 & Ati Radeon x500 it did not run in-game, but this test was done with Nvidia 9400 GT and works no problem (using latest driver ver. 180). Text is awkard/ugly (text typed by player). Very minor delay (much less than seen in youtube videos), had no problem winning versus and campaign. Also, contrary to what I've seen on the net, the shading in game + lighting work no different compared to Windows (same feel/look). Why not Platinum? Ugly (almost unreadable) text and that very minor delay make it not 100% like it plays in Windows. Thats all.

To change startup settings, right-click on the game in Steam, select
"Properties, then "Set launch options...". You can add any of the
following options, seperated by a space.
If you have multiple screens, you'll probably find that the game tries to stretch over all screens, instead of just one. In this case, you'll need these options:
