Codecreatures benchmark ate my computer for lunch

First of all, here's the thread (http://www.sysopt.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=109304) that was originally posted in the Sysopt's videocard/monitors forum regarding codecreatures. There's a .png graphic displaying the results using various video cards on a Pentium IV system. Also, you can download Codecreatures from here (http://www.majorgeeks.com/article.php?sid=1256).

Next, here are my numbers for an average of 3 runs. I used their default benchmark suite which tests at 3 different resolutions. By the way Codecreatures looks beautiful, much like the Nature scene in 3dMark2001SE. In anycase onto the numbers. Note that I'm actually pleased with how my Duron/GeForce3 rig compared with the P4 setup in the png graphic. I didn't do nearly as bad I thought I would heh heh. Still over 10 fps at 1024x768 res.

Now thats a real P4 setup. How do you compare to the P4 references? I love it when I see a P4 reference that totally shows it sucking but when I bench it does ten times better than its suposed to-I wonder why that is!;) :t
