From what I've read in this thread wired works but wireless apparently acts up or isn't recognized at all though I think only one or two people have mentioned that problem so I don't know how accurate it is to say it's due to the modified files.

Dog-god, graphics are kept simple though there are a variety of PC specific options and it does allow AA, still draw distance (Or rather detail LOD) is kept short but there are several hundred zombies around so the background ones tend to be a bit cardboard 2d like and very simple, later on it apparently escalates upwards of 5000 or so zombies around the larger areas.
It looks OK though shadows and texture resolution are a bit low and the above level of detail stuff and simple lighting.
EDIT: Read the previous posts and discussions to understand it a bit better, Skidrow choose to "kill" Live by using a modified xlive.dll file so it's not active and neither is most functions that rely on it apparently.
(Saving and such works but MP functionality and DLC, if there were any PC one, are gone along with achievements and profiles.)
(I assume the launcher is a fake or rather it's more like a loader instead and that's why it doesn't pass as valid trough LIVE so this method was used, a proper is likely once it retails starting next week I'd guess.)

xExtreme initially there's all sorts of time limits, relaxes somewhat during the second full playtrough based on the comments in the console section however.
(You keep current levels and the like so it gets easier as well to do the early stuff without having to rush or grind points by doing various stuff and also improves the chances to get the full good ending or some such thing, apparently like with the first game.)

You're constantly on a timer, but I've read that you can actually fail the main quest and are given an option to keep playing anyways.
I haven't tested that particular feature myself, though.
Btw, I want to reconfirm that the IND clone does indeed work with Skidrow crack. However, I needed to download a msvcr100.dll (just Google it) as well. The game now saves properly.

72 in-game hours at that, it's not a 1:1 clock so things are a bit sped up.
(Or so it seems, I'm right at the start of the game still.)

The controls are shit and the mouse is emulated and imprecise. Disappointing. Thought this game could be fun.

Based on how fast the in-game wristwatch goes, it seems to be 5 seconds our time for every minute theirs. So that means the game is going 12 times faster.
So the 72 hour limit equals 6 hours of real time? That doesn't sound right. The average shooter might only be 6 hours long but for a game like this, that sounds way too short.

the military enters the city after 72 hours. the game doesn't end right away at that point.
also I'd say the game has a focus on playing more than 1 time so it's ok.
definitely didn't feel short on my playthrough.

I did first get the xbox version, but shortly gave up because of the horrible loading times. I hoped the PC would be better, and i am happy to say it is better in every way (at least for me)
Better framerate, smoother GFX, MUCH faster loading.
The controls are fine for me. Mouse and keyboard, much easier to aim when throwing or shooting stuff.

To the guys worried about the timers and pressure in the game, relax. No lie I hate stuff like that normally but the first game on 360 was my favourite game of this gen.
Do not go in thinking you must do perfectly at first. Miss deadlines, have fun, level up. This isn't even 'grinding' in the traditional sense as it's so much leveling up it's actually a big part of the game, the 'missions' and timer are there merely to give you an incentive to level up and it works well. If anything like the first, you'll find it's enjoyable to improve your stats/powers by exploring a little and of course dispatching zombies in any number of ways. As you keep your level IF you restart from the beginning the game just gets easier and easier the longer you fool around, it's perfect that way as if you are genuinely bad at playing the more you put in the more the game will seem easier ALL while having fun leveling up to make it easier.
Once you are at a level comfortable to you you can attempt the timed stuff and progress / open up new areas and explore even more.
I never had a problem with the first game and found the slight timed pressure and limited saves are what made the game so immersive and 'vital'. A quick save and easy going nature actually would have killed the fun and incentive even though many of us at first thought we wanted that option. It's very good design, not 'bad design' as some claimed.
I've still to check out #2 so it may disappoint me as Blue Castle did it, it looks similar to #1 but #1 was very good looking in it's day with detailing in shops etc that was way above most other games, gave it a sense of realism - in 2010 if blue castle have only done the bare minimum and not improved the detailing (or actually gone backwards) then it may not be quite so good a game, I don't know yet. So my comments only 100% apply to the first game at this point. 
I'm glad it's out on PC this time though, I'd hoped for #1 to arrive but it never did and would appreciate even limited graphical upgrades (Res/AA etc).

*sigh* For the last time; building a game around the fact that you can "die repeatedly and every time you start the game over completely from scratch, you keep your stats!!111" is NEVER EVER EVER EVER a good design decision.
Period.
It's just an artificial longevity increaser and most normal people don't want to have continually replay the game, over and over and over, just so they can progress and not have to worry about a constant timer. But hey, that's like... my opinion.. man.

the mouse feels wierd on the vertical plane, sort of jittery, you can tell its a port from a control stick.
