It's different and a lot of fun. I'll have to try it again with my new CPU. It ran like dogshit no matter the settings last I tried it.
Ambient Occlusion and Anti Aliasing kill the performance. I disable both just to stay above 30 fps at all times. The only thing I have maxed is textures, everything else is set to mid. Give it a shot.

By my measurements, Lead & Gold is twice as good and twice as polished so that makes sense.
Foolish horse! When will you stop trolling the glory that is Shattered Horizon?
The feel and gunplay is not as fast and responsive as the other big budget FPS titles, and the gun models themselves are a little plain, that much is for sure. That's not what the game is about though. The appeal of the game definitely comes from movement in a space setting: the freedom it allows as well as the danger of being hit from literally any direction.
There's most certainly a learning curve with the game as well, and I think that deters a lot of new players after only a short time with the game. There really isn't a whole lot like it, and for that, I definitely feel like I got my $5 worth in the 10 or so hours I've played ('09 holiday sale FTW).
