 Awesome physics game August 17, 2008

The best PC game we have. My daughter (7 years old) even loves to build contraptions and watch how physics take place and interact with different objects and materials.
We have the first version too, but this one adds much more elements into play.
If you ever stacked up dominos and tipped them over when you were a kid, or rolled steel marbles down tracks, you will love this game.
 What's with the high video requirements July 9, 2008

I have the first 2 games (loved them) and did not expect to need a "gaming" machine for the 3rd. I am not willing to spend $100 (only have pci slots) to play a $19 game. This is rediculous and I can not believe the publisher does not offer a normal version for us "non-gamers"

I have previously purchased *Crazy Machines* and *Crazy Machines 1.5* and thoroughly enjoyed both of them (I still re'engineer some of the puzzles, seeking different solutions). I have a 1 year old computer with all the *Bells and Whistles*(including TONS of memory) but sadly it is lacking the one item that seems to be a necessity for this new evolution of Crazy Machines, that being what I would call a *Gamers Graphic Card*. The Plain Vanilla video card that came with my new computer, that worked just fine with CM & CM1.5 just doesn't have what is needed to display this new version as it was designed to be displayed and without the proper hardware (See the *System Requirements* in the product description) the program just doesn't display/operate correctly. If you have the video card needed, or are prepared to purchase it($75 was the lowest price I was able to find), I would highly recommend this product! I'm sure I would have given it 5 stars if I had been able to see it in all its glory.
Fun for an 8-year-old (and his dad) August 25, 2008

So far, so good. The game promises 150 different experiments/tasks, and the first 15 were lots of fun. My son and I would talk back and forth, sharing ideas about which tools should be put in which locations. More problem solving than most games we play. It's the best family-friendly PC game I've bought in a long time.
And, for the record, I don't think the issue is necessarily that you have a NEW computer...just one that meets the specifications. I have a 3-year-old Dell with its original nVidia GeForce 6800 graphics card supporting DirectX 9.0c. I'm not saying CM2 will work on ANY 3-year-old computer, but it clearly runs on at least one....

I bought this game for my grandson but so far have not been able to get it to work. My daughter has talked back and forth with the techies about this and the latest is that she need a new graphics card which she has not secured yet to my knowledge. Thus, I cannot accurately review this product but am still in hopes that they can get it to work so I don't have to sent it back.
