COMMENT - "The Geforce 6200 TC starts off well with 1944 Battle of the Bulge and is playable upto 1280x1024 when using low quality settings. However when using medium or high quality settings the Geforce 6200 TC experiences a huge 78% reduction in performance and was unplayable at all resolutions. Although the Geforce 6200 TC has UltraShadow 2 Technology it doesn't seem to be helping the performance of the Geforce 6200 TC with this game."

COMMENT - "The Geforce 6200 TC has no problems running Aurora Watching at a playable level using 800x600 at any quality setting, however when shadows are enabled using medium and high quality the performance is reduced by 25%. Aurora Watching is a fairly slow moving game anyway and the Geforce 6200 TC delivered a playable performance at 1024x768 using medium quality settings which is good for a video card in it's price range."
