Ground Control 2 is an action-oriented game of tactics and warfare. As Captain Jacob Angelus of the Northern Star Alliance, you will command squads of infantry, artillery, and air power against the might of the Empire of Terra. Base building and resource-collecting are replaced with unit control and combat tactics where your knowledge of the battlefield maneuvers will make the difference in your fight against a ruthless enemy. Position your troops on hilltops for better aim or inside buildings and forests for protection as you'll need to use every inch of terrain to your advantage.

For our benchmarks, we used the highest possible settings on the first mission of the single player game and moved around the camera to get an average frame rate using fraps.

Ground Control II offers really impressive graphics without requiring much GPU power.

Wow! completely different scenario unfolds here. The XFX 7800 GTX is out in front, at least with AA and AF disabled, while the N7800GTX TOP and EAX1800XT TOP follow not too far behind.

With AA and AF enabled, the XFX 7800 GTX maintains its supremacy at the lower resolutions, but when we move to 1280x1024 and above, the N8700 GTX TOP shows its strength. The EAX1800XT TOP falls slightly behind, especially at the higher resolutions.
