Does anyone here have this kick ass game for the PC? If so, do you have that annoying stutter only when there are monsters nearby? The game runs like a dream until I have to enter an area with monsters in it. Then, the game goes from 200FPS+ to a stupid stutter that drives me nuts!
Any help appreciated!

Sounds like a driver issue. Report it to ATI and open a ticket with the game developer's support service; they may know of a driver parameter you can tweak. I had a similar problem with 1nsane and an older version of the Radeon drivers once, and the game developer told me that switching the Z-buffer to 16-bit mode would fix it. Lo and behold, it worked (until a patch came out and made the kludge unnecessary).
