I just bought it on Steam and I'm trying to play it, but having no such luck.  After I double-click it, it seems to load.  The screen goes black with a mouse still there.  The second I move my mouse, though, the game goes bye bye.

Can anyone help me on this?  It'd be nice to think I didn't just waste $10 on a game that won't even start.

I'm having this problem too. I load the game and just see a black screen with the mouse pointer in it. Does it just take forever to load?

*edit* it does take forever to load. Seriously, like over five minutes. But when it did I switched to windowed mode, and it loads much faster now. Sooooo nevermind.

btw I'm rocking a core2 quad and a radeon 4850, so in case anyone's investigating - my computer wasn't to blame
